"We're not firing anybody," said Jones, a consultant whose firm, MD Strum Housing Services in Indianapolis, was hired to clean up the troubled agency. "This is a reduction in force that required some people to lose their jobs." (from: http://www.newsobserver.com/news/story/2350628p-8728507c.html)

I will be in Southhampton on business in June with a couple of free days, one thing I like to do when that happens is rent a plane and instructor at a local FBO for sightseeing flight. I've been able to find those types of resources easily in the U.S. with airnav.com. Is there a similar resoruce...

On May 28, 5:57 pm, john smith I am not a part-owner in either of the two clubs of which I am a member. I simply rent the aircraft. All of the aircraft are lease-backs in one club and the club is incorporated and the corporation owns the other. There are nine airplanes...

There was some discussion of this concept in the newsgroup before, with the consensus seeming to be that an individual owners get no real protection putting his personal airplane under corporate or LLC ownership. And now it turns out he might lose some protection, because LLC owners are not covered...

Assuming proper maintanence and a good airframe log/book inspection, are there any concerns about high time airframes, like insurability, etc? My partners and I are looking at a warrior with over 11,000 AFTT.

When I fly with my GPS396, I usually don't put in a flight plan or any direct-tos; I use the panel mounted KLN94 for that. I use the 396 just for weather, terrain, and additional situational awareness. I had never heard the spurious terrain warnings near airports that Dave Butler reported in...

He'll be back. He can't help himself. I enjoyed his posts, though I think he has extremely poor judgement and a short fuse I still enjoyed reading them and the responses they generated. He's gotta be gratified that one result of his "goodbye" post was to start a ****storm on the newsgroup.

If an engine has been overhauled 3 times, never making TBO either time (not even making it to 1/2 of TBO 2 of the times), should I be concerned that it might be a lemon, or if the current overhaul was done right and the engine has been treated right since then, should I not worry about how it did...

Fire up AOPA flight planner or any other flight planning software and plot a direct route, S37-LBT. The result reinforces my earlier speculation that someone at S37 just did "direct-to LBT" on a handheld (probably non-aviation) GPS and was simply flying that line. If so, dumb. Actually I can't...

I ordered my GPS396 from Sporty's on July 20th. Yesterday I got a letter from them telling me the projected ship date is August 31st.

My GPSMAP396 came with a coupon for a free Jepp update, but it must be used within 90 days of purchase date (which I will assume will be the ship date of 8/23). I want to optimize this to get the most recent data I can within the 90 days. When will be the last Jepp data update before November...
