Where to find a salvaged flight deck by
Todd Trainor
Where can I find a fairly complete flight deck from a large twin or
small airliner? Before I make a proposal to buy something like this,
I need to research the cost. We're planning to use it as a display
and for educational purposes.
If it is shorter than 13' tall we could build a trailer around...

Where can I watch planes? (Northern NJ) by
TeleTechnician
Greetings.
I am not a pilot, though some day I would like to start lessons.
I live near TEB and CDW. I have two toddlers who love airplanes.
At CDW, I have been able to find a place not on airport grounds where we
can spot the planes taking off and landing. However, TEB is closer. At
TEB, I...

When did planes become wings? by
The Thunder Child
I've been reading a 1910 Tom Swift book - Tom Swift and his Airship, in
which the dirigible is also outfitted with "planes" - i.e., wings.
And of course that's where monoplane, biplane and triplane come from,
though I confess I'd never connected the two.
So, can anyone tell me when an aeroplane's...

When bad things happen to good planes by

I thought I saw this plane on So. Cal. a year or to ago. My recollection
was that it was in great shape.

I suppose it will live to fly again some day.
Seems like a lot of dough for a plane that wrinkled, maybe
it's not as bad as...

What's your avorite airliner? by
james_anatidae
In an effort to get some on-topic messages in RTA, I ask "What is your
favorite airliner"? I remember a UA A320 I flew on a couple years ago to be
quite pleasant.
(And I ask if any of the many local trolls answer this message, you others
please don't encourage them.)

what were those calendar's called? by

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...

What is cabin air pressure set at by

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
