Africa in the 1960s or 1970s?
Regards

Mooney, yet again by
blanche cohen
Can't Mooney keep a boss more than a couple years? Dennis
Ferguson stepped down as of Sept 26. So this makes what? Two,
three CEOs in the past 5 years?

Interesting New Squadron Slated For Cannon AFB by
Marco Leon
Described as "A new squadron to handle AFSOC's growing mission of
flying small, civilian-style aircraft to carry special operations
troops without attracting the attention that a C-130 does. "
So we can be flying a "warbird" and not even know it!

Sopwith Camel Video by
Kevin Dunlevy
This plane has some serious gyroscopic forces, even while the engine is
warming up at the chocks. Throttle control by the mags sounds interesting in
the sense of the curse "May you live in interesting times." KD

So Much for "The World On Time" by
john smith
I arrived at KTZR/Bolton Field/Columbus OH at 0930 this morning for what
I was told would be a 1000-1030 arrival of the donated FedEx 727.
By 1125, I could no longer wait (had to go pick up my son from summer
school at 1145). As I was leaving the airport boundaries, I heard the
crew call inbound...

Anyone here know Driggs, Idaho (DIJ) by

I was flying though Driggs, Idaho at 1.5 feet last week in a rental car

surprised at the very professional airport we passed. Several Biz jets,
lots of big hangars, nice facilities. I was wondering what was in Driggs
that...

May be doing some international flying soon and want to get started on

Aviation incidents by
[email protected]
There was an incident involving an Emirates A330 at the end of last
month. The local newspapers here were rather reticent about what
exactly happened, although it was reported that the Vienna-bound
airplane was in the air for about an hour after taking off and had
returned to make an emergency...
