Every day these noisy, small private planes from Palo Alto airport destroy my living space. They fly too low, and this causes their low frequency motor noise to enter my home and drive me crazy. Especially on weekend days, there is either one plane entering or leaving my airsapce, so there is a...

If I own the airplane, can give a renter a checkout...? Not instruction... an aircraft checkout.....

Every time I start my Garmin 295 it says "Aviation Waypoint Was Deleted." I've seen this a dozen times by now; how can I stop the message from appearing?

I own a Garmin GPS-90 and just tried to buy a database update from Garmin. With no warning, databases for the GPS 90 are no longer available. I am looking for a recent database that I can borrow or buy to update my database which is 2 years old. (Garmin suggested this when I called them) Thanks.

Why is it that most security people at terminals seem like the lowest people on earth? And what's the deal with the guards with the guns? They act like they are just waiting to blow some innocent persons head off. Pathetic.

Last few weeks I've seen (HEARD before seeing) the Concorde over Long Island heading in to JFK. I thought they stopped scheduled service. Any info? Thanks.
