Norcal Aviation by [email protected]

****ed off FAA controller on blog by No2
DAMN!! http://themainbang.typepad.com/ This is John Carr at his best. A classic that will deserve a nice frame and maybe? a signed copy. This slice and dice of Bobba and the 1500 Stooges at FAA HQ(Berlin)is better than a master cook at Benihanas. I love the quote... "Sturgell decided to...

Plane & car collide NTSB prilim by [email protected]
The NTSB preliminary report is out: LAX08LA266 for N3156B Though we'll probably never know, my wild guess from the description and the fact that his last medical was in 1997 is that he opted for one last ride while he was still able to get in the airplane. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to...
