I am helping to plane a memorial service for a pilot who has died (of natural causes). To that end, I am looking for ways to personalize a service for that of one who loved flying. We'll be doing a video memorial tribute. The poem High Flight will be used. I've collected some poems about pilots...

I have a Garmin 196 and just in the past week or so it is acting strange. I get a signal just fine, but when I am standing still it constanly changes headings. It never moves in a direction, just turns in circles sporatically. Once I begin to move, it tracks just fine. But as soon as I stop, it...

Thanks to everyone for help in the best way to get over ATL. I had a total of 3 hops over the "big" airport and one around it.

No, this is not a story about Viagra's side effects... ;-) Amazingly, today dawned clear and sunny -- against all predictions. Thus, once the kids were at school, it was time for us to head to our favorite "$100 Breakfast" in Muscatine, IA. Conditions seemed perfect, but I knew some weather was...

I couldn't sleep early tonight, so I tuned to the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. I learned that actress, Angelina Jolie is learning to be a pilot. According to conversation, Angelina claimed that it is tough learning the 'procedures' and regulations. Thought that you might want to know this. Toks

I've been flying my 182 for the last 19 years and it's become just "transportation" and not "fun" anymore. So I'm thinking of buying an "airknocker" to fly for fun . Do any of you guys out there that have Aeronca experience have any tips or suggestions on what to look for in a pre-purchase for...

My wife was asking about this festival. Is anyone here flying out there? Do you fly into Little River? How do you get into town, rent, taxi ,etc? Does it make sense for a day or do you need to spend the night? reference http://www.mendocinocoast.com/ -Robert
