My first time at Osh, and it was unbelievable. From the immense formation flyovers to the multitude of weather conditions in a single week...hey, I'm from California! I was fortunate to have a job when I arrived in Osh working with www.Aero-News.net. Those guys had me running all over the place...

Better late than never! I think I'll dub this page the collage that keeps going and going! With over 100 images, more than any page to date, ther'll be plenty to browse through. Some of the images to look for include Salinas from above, not only the layout of the airshow, but an entirely different...

I have a show for some Martians next week. What should I show them on Mars ?

Spins have NEVER been in the private pilot PTS. The PTS (Practical Test Standard) only has been in existence for around 20 years or so. The last time spins were required for a Private Certificate was back in the early 1950's or maybe the late 1940's. Note that there is nothing that prevents...

Can you depart and spin from coordinated flight? Specifically a coordinated climbing turn? Several weeks ago I chimed in on an otherwise awful thread suggesting that if the ball was in the center the airplane would not spin. One of the posters ) responded that the...

Van wrote an article in which he states "RV's are not well suited for because high G forces are needed to produce a brisk snap roll." When I do snap rolls in my Aerobat (perhaps that's an oxymoron) I do an accelerated stall at 75kts which is well below my Va of 105 kts so there is no possibility...

I would enjoy some feedback regarding the Lttle Toot Bi Plane from those that have one or may have flown one. also, what is a reasonable price to pay for one of these aircraft?

Need someone to settle an argument. I do not fly, so your answers need to be in laymans terms and hopefully put simply. I've occasionally watched aerobatic displays and seen a maneouver called a stall turn. Now, I more or less understand how this works, but there comes a point, just before the...

I have lost my Job! I need to sell a picture I have of the original Skyblazers Signed by the team. My grandfather passed it on to me but, I am in need of money right now. The Twin Patillo Brothers knew my grandfather, (They give it to him). It is a pen and ink done in Fürstenfeldbruck, (In...

In the aerobatic movie at http://www.fulldeflection.com , Svetlana Kapanina seems to hardly notice the g-forces. I guess sometimes its +9 and -4 or so, but I can only see her hair go up and down. I have watched this film many times (ahh Svetlana !).

I have a Starduster SA100 with a Scotts tailwheel. The tailwheel is not tight on the springs it is loose and the wheel can be moved a few inches each direction before the springs make contact. I would think that there should be no play in the springs... my thought is that it could cause shimmy and...

Dear All, I am looking for information on the TL3424 RAS acceleration logger (http://www2.tl-elektronic.com/index.php? page=lsa&p_id=7&PHPSESSID=fee5ff74bb944f141d491dcb1af990f6). As I undestand it, this logger can log speed and G-acceleration during a period of time (not just when an exceeded...
