land).
This from CNN:

almanacs, cautioning that the popular reference books...

GPS question by
Ace Pilot
I received a handheld Magellan Meridian Color GPS for Christmas. How
good a GPS is this for aviation purposes? Are there any accessories or
software/database packages that are aviation related and suitable for
use with this GPS unit?
Thanks.

Internal Wings - The future of aviation? by
Roger Long
My son is getting an education about the real world. He got a small foam
glider for Christmas with a futuristic looking three piece foam wing.
According to the packaging, the toy company was set up to raise money for
development of this new aircraft design. Neat.
We looked it up...

Tent basics // Oshkosh prep by
Mike Z.
awright! I admit this is a bit premature but it has been too poopy to fly lately and a fellas' mind gets to wandering.
We have been gearing up to camp the North 40 for a while.
Last year we even upgraded the tent to a nice stand-up Eureka Headquarters.
Shortly after that, I read Jays' tale of...

The IFR flight plan was flown using two VORs with a Garmin 295 GPS as a back
up. As we approached KELER intersection,...

Tampon clogs air traffic flow by
R. Hubbell
Nice to know that the air traffic system is so robust.
http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/business/2326554
I wonder if it was terrorists? I'm sure Tom Ridge will be sending out RFPs
for Tampon detectors soon. And Dubya will probably label Tampons as WMDs.

New Year's Eve / Day TFRs 2003 / 2004 by
Guy Elden Jr.
With the issuance today of a flood of TFRs covering NYC, Las Vegas, and
Southern California, and the resulting response from AOPA's Phil Boyer, I'm

It is interesting that "Group Moderator" is obviously trimming

Si, I trimmed the list in case someone on it might object to it being
perpetuated, as you suggested.
