Skycather's not TOO ugly, just needs tailwheel by
Ricky
After looking at Skycatcher quite a bit I decided it looks fine, nice,
not great, just o.k.
My dad was responsible for the "Texas Taildragger" C-150, 152, 172
conversions and I think the Skycatcher would look GREAT with a
tailwheel.
Then again, almost anything looks better with a tailwheel....

Nope, wrong
I'd be delighted to hear you elaborate on that...

Nope.

They were nowhere NEAR Slough. It would have been Hounslow that'd have
copped it.

Airshow negated by Bush visit by
Mxsmanic
Antique planes at an airshow were escorted to the ground because the King was
visiting nearly 30 miles away:
http://us.cnn.com/2007/US/10/08/forced.landings.ap/index.html
Not sure how much of an airshow you can have if nobody is allowed to fly.

Introducing kids to flying concepts early! by
es330td
I live in Athens, GA near KAHN. On a nice weekend day GA activity is
pretty heavy.
On Saturday I was outside with my kids (6 and 4) while they were doing

sidewalk chalk. I noticed a lot of planes in the air so I pulled out
my ICOM...
