The Week The show was low key for us this year, as – for the first time in years – we weren’t shopping for anything major for the plane. In fact, we didn’t buy anything other than artwork for our next couple of suites and a database update for our 496. (We’re working on the “Flying...

You're invited to not one, but TWO Oshkosh parties! That's right, TWO Oshkosh blow-outs, organized by pilots, for pilots and their guests. Check 'em out: 1. ** Saturday, July 21st -- 5th Annual Iowa City Fly-In Pool Party ** Each year, on the Saturday before OSH, we host a fly-in pool party...

Cut that one a little close, we did we did. The Oshkosh Bound artwork for printing your own "Oshkosh Bound 2007" posters is up at www.rstengineering.com and then a link from the bottom of that page. Also posted is the updated graphic showing the Ripon-Fisk-Oshkosh transition. Please don't use...

http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2007/07/28/ap3963438.html i read the car joyrider will be charged with the chopper pilot/reporter deaths!! so effectively we have learned nothing from this accident! -if i use my cell phone while driving from A to B that is deemed a dangerous distraction to my...

Also on the same page as the video of the fire at Mojave and the helicopter collision in Phoenix. Been a bad couple days all around in aviation. http://tinyurl.com/2llx9h -- Waddling Eagle World Famous Flight Instructor

Just toddled in from the pool party, and all I can say is "Whoa -- what a party!" Estimates range from 50 to 70 people at the pool, with an absolutely full ramp at the airport. We were parking them in the grass -- which is a new first for us! I've never seen so many RVs outside of Oshkosh, so...

The rumors have been confirmed: The ADIZ will change effective August 30. Here's what AOPA had to say about it today: Dear AOPA Member: Over the past four years, pilots like you and I flying in the Baltimore-Washington area have struggled with the effects of the Washington, D.C., Air...

Any birds get dinged today? Big John

We pre-packed Atlas for OSH last night, and he is stuffed to the gills. Was feeling pretty smug about having everything ready to go for our flight tomorrow morning (after the pool party tonight), until I walked out to our Subaru wagon this morning. The entire back of the car is full of our...

Does anyone have a year or two old AC-U-KWIK (North America) they'd like to sell? If so please drop me a line at . Thanks.

A T-6G Texan made an emergency landing just short of the Fond Du Lac, WI airport. The aircraft landed on highway US 41 on the northbound lane. Local law enforcement were able to stop traffic moments before the aircraft made its forced landing. The aircraft struck a sign post damaging the right...

I recently took my commercial ASEL ride and must retake a few parts of the practical portion, but the complex single I've been using is no longer available to me. A CFI friend suggested that I could start my multiengine training now, then take a combined ASEL/AMEL commercial ride, whereby the...

I just turned 53 and find myself finally with the time to pursue aviation as more than an interested spectator. A pilot friend recommended the light sport pilot designation for me. That is one opinion. I need to know if, at my relatively late date it is reasonable to expect to be piloting my own...

I live 15 minutes from AOPA Expo 2007, and I'm temporarily based at HFD. I'd be more than happy to arrange a R.A.P get together! The Hartford area has some fine Brew Pubs. It's a few weeks off, and I know half the NG is at OSH... Email me direct @ barry at bburke dot com with interest.
