Still no swap program for Airmap 500 by
David Reinhart

credit for my dead Airmap on a new Airmap 500, like they have for the
100. There is still no program in place for the 500 and the support

I'm watching a much anticipated VFR flight between PWM and CLE dissolve in
this horrible weather. I'm still holding out a slim hope for Monday and
Tuesday but I'm not getting as clear a picture of what to expect from the
prog charts as I can from the bigger and more regular systems.

Mary and I picked up one of these things in OSH, and I'm absolutely stunned
that there has been virtually NO discussion of this almost unbelievable

Where was "Glacier Girl"? by

It just dawned on me that I never saw Glacier Girl -- the P-38 that was
