1800 Gallons of De-icing fluid... by
Jay Honeck
My A&P mechanic works a day job, in addition to doing small-plane
maintenance. He is in charge of local maintenance on DC-9s that fly
for a major freight hauler.
Our part of the world got hit with a pretty decent winter storm over
the weekend, which resulted in "his" DC-9 being coated with over...

182 crash at GON by
Gary Drescher
http://www.boston.com/news/local/connecticut/articles/2005/06/27/four_dead_in_small_plane_crash/
The reported crash site looks like it was near the DA point for GON ILS 5.
The plane's owner is a commercial instrument pilot, according to the FAA's
database.

The Newark Star Ledger this morning reported a 182 crash on takeoff

in the pattern at the time. Someone was quoted as saying that the pilot

1942 DC-3 / C-47 on eBay by
Michael 182
For about 25% of the cost of a new Skylane or Cirrus you can have a 1942
C-47 that saw combat in WWII. Of course, the maintenance and fuel prices
might be a little steep - not to mention finding a hanger big enough to hold
the plane. Still, wouldn't it be cool to land at some out of the way...

1966 Owner's Manual by
scupper79
My understanding is:
before early 1970s, FAA hadn't standardized the manuals into a POH format
yet, so they were just Owner's manuals at the manufacturer's discretion.
Did the 1st page after the cover still have to have the serial # on it?
I fly an old 150F model here lately and it's Owner's...

These were 8mm, transferred to VHS, and converted to digital. The company
that did the film to VHS added the sound.

That's the same J3 that is flying there today, or at least was three years
ago.
