Talk about the high cost of aviation! by C J Campbell
A local limo driver managed to back into the wingtip of a Falcon jet the other day, bending the wingtip slightly. The small piece of aluminum, containing mountings for the wingtip lights, had to be replaced. None of the lights, the wiring, the light cover, or any other part of the airplane...

Life is horribly, horribly unfair by Rosspilot
I am now so glad that I learned to fly and have my own humble little airplane. It makes a difference. I think it really does. Indeed it does. Your story reinforces my long-standing belief that life turns on the thinnest of dimes, and that when your time comes, it won't matter if you are...

Cool flight to WI today... by Jay Honeck
