Please take a look at these two photos, and let me know if you know what make/model these airplanes a http://www.johnweeks.com/tmp/fof1.jpg http://www.johnweeks.com/tmp/fof2.jpg These two aircraft look to be identical. The photos were taken during a driving rain on July 2 at a building...

I'm not a physicist, so please forgive me if my vocabulary is faulty here. I really need this information, though; any feedback would be greatly appreciated. A flat surface, AB, is moving through the air, with the surface exactly perpendicular to the direction of movement. In the graphic below,...

I do some of my best thinking while flying along in the Champ at 500 feet AGL. The latest realization to hit me was, "What am I going to leave behind in the way of an aviation legacy?" Photographs are one of the easiest most efficient ways to share our flying experiences with other, so that is one...

Glorious destiny for a 727 :-) http://xo.typepad.com/blog/2004/04/boeing_727_conv.html -- Fritz

Actually there were several planes used on the show Sky King , Penney and Clipper used one. Sky King May have had a backup plane. If anyone knows what aircraft were used and their names please drop an email to update the search.

I got this notam from duats !HPN 01/087 HPN 11/29 PTCHY THN SIR SWEPT WEF 0501301139 and couldn't figure out what SWEPT meant, so I tried the translator feature. Seems the translator didn't know either: White Plains NY (Westchester County) : January NOTAM #87: Runway 11/29 patchy thin snow and...

I flew back into PAE last night around 9:30pm and 16R/34L was closed with a disabled aircraft on it. Anyone knows what happened? A gear up landing?

Is a McDonnell Douglas SP80 Jet the same as a MD80 jet? Just wondering. Thanks!

Here's two URLs pointing to PDF's of the same approach: http://www.airnav.com/depart?http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0502/00548I2.PDF http://download.aopa.org/iap/20050217/SW-1/saf_ils_rwy_02.pdf The airnav version is crystal clear. The AOPA version is blurry and pixelated. Zooming in, it almost...

In a commercial airline, I realize that the cabin is pressureizd, but I know that it is not kept at a sea level pressure. What effective "altitude" is the passenger cabin kept at? Is it the same for all air liners? The reason I am asking is that I have to use a CPAP machine to breath while I...

I am currently a sophomore in college, accounting major. I have thought about either joining AFROTC and commisioning with their accelerated program and hopefully getting a pilot slot. I have also thought about enlisting in the ANG while in college and paying for some hours on the sides while...

I was browsing Google maps when I came across this image at Edwards AFB: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=34+N+119+W&ie=UTF8&ll=34.89991,-117.870474&spn=0.003968,0.010192&t=h&z=18 At the center of the photo is an aircraft with what appears to be an odd configuration. Does anyone...

Hey folks! First of all - I'm new here so please excuse me if I'm doing something wrong and do point me in the right direction :) So I just wanted to ask you if anyone knows what the plane on the picture is - I just fell in love with it!...

Issued in 1913, it was the first plane to ever appear on a stamp. Can anyone tell me what kind of plane it is? http://www.linns.com/howto/refresher/airmails_20030210/refreshercourse.aspx It's Figure number 7. (FIgure 8 is the Curtiss Jenny, the one famous for the "Inverted Jenny error....)

What type is the plane in the picture? http://nytimes.com/2003/10/27/national/27CND-FIRE.html

Jesus christ, the NexRad Radar station in Detroit is down AGAIN, and again (at the same time) so is Cleveland. What the **** is wrong with those stations? They work all friggin winter when there's no heavy weather and now in the summer seems that once a week those 2 stations are down for part of...

Hi, Perhaps somebody here knows. I vaguely recall that back in the mid-late 80s there was a company that published calendars that always featured some beautiful woman posing with a very nice aircraft. I think they were called pilot pal's calendars or something like that. I've googled a bit but...
