making the transition from renter to owner part 2 (long) by Journeyman
The weather was a huge question mark for pretty much the entire flight home. My plan A of course was to fly back the next day (Tuesday, the 30th). Plan B was to fly home commercially, leaving the airplane for about a month until weather is more stable and I had less expected schedule...

Forgot to close flight plan by Paul Folbrecht
Ok, I did it today, first time ever, after ferrying my newly purchased 152 home. I realized about an hour after landing that I'd forgotten. I called the FSS and they'd informed me that they'd called the tower who had confirmed my landing and thus the plan had been closed. I felt like a complete...

Copalis Beach State Airport threatened? by C J Campbell
Dave Krall in a note forwarded to the Pacific Northwest Flying forum says that there is a movement afoot to close Copalis Beach State Airport. This airport is worth extra effort to save it. Noise is not a legitimate issue; as the web site notes the sound of wind and waves drowns out the sound...

Recruiting students from current student by BoDEAN
Has anyone used this approach? I was thinking of emailing all my current students, asking them to spread the word about flying, and help bring in more students to the airport. Not sure how I want to word it, but I feel it might be a good way to get some new blood into the airport. Comments?

For one reason or another, I've been in lurk mode for the last six months or so. I'm now going to make up for it with a particularly long post. :-) I've been increasingly frustrated with flying lately. In fact, I didn't meet a single goal I set for myself last year. Came close to getting the...
