Cessna and Cirrus brought one of each to the Angel Flight fly-in at PNS yesterday, and I got the sales pitch from each rep. No test flights, alas. Both are highly desirable airplanes, of course, but I was surprised at how closely I rated them as a potential buyer: * Speed: Cirrus wins big: 40+...

Friends of ours had a dorm room reserved for the duration of Oshkosh -- and then forgot to mail the deposit balance in that was due by June 15th. Now the folks at UW-Osh won't even put them on the waiting list for cancellations, as they say that there are already over 700 (!) people on the...
