Anybody know why the Porterville, CA airport is selling 80 octane on a "temporary" basis?

180hp C172 I don't think that the older XP's had the bumps on the cowls, I think it was only the aftermarket 180hp conversions but I may be wrong. Jim "Nathan Young" wrote in message ... I went for a boat ride on the Fox...

Anyone know of any banner towing services in Cincinnati, Oh?

Anyone attend this on sunday? I know it's still going on. I am real curious to see if they showed anything special. Jim http://www.unconventional-wisdom.org

The FAA and Government is caught in the previous Clinton administrations left wing socialist scam. Social engineering agendas using Government Manager Puppets (Like good red Chinese soldiers should) are milking the US taxpayer and placing air safety at risk while focused more on social goals. Why...

Hi all, I'm planning a trip to Bullhead City for July 6. Never been there. Any hints for a smooth VFR arrival from Southern California?

I had an odd exchange with FSS today when I filed an ADIZ flight plan. Everything went as usual until we got to the end. The briefer said is there anything else? I said no, except for your initials. I always ask for operating initials when filing an ADIZ flight plan, since I've heard complaints...

Hurricane, that is. Last September I moved airplane and family to Houston to escape hurricane Ivan. That turned out to be a good move, since the steel shelter I parked '87D under was destroyed by the storm. This time I'm staying put. The new storm is forcast to be a minimal hurricane at most,...

Hi I know Hugh Herndon and Clyde Pangborn crossed the pacific non stop in 1931, but who was the first person to fly transpacific non stop solo?

I was wondering if anyone had an E6-B flight computer program for the HP 15C calculator. I'm mostly interested in the back side of the E6-B with course correction for winds. Density altitude, and True airspeed calculations would also be nice. I could always write the program myself, but I'm...

I bought the XM weather system from Control Vision last year. On a recent 8-day meandering trip through the midwest, I did flight planning the evening before, entering the new flight plan into the PDA. You can add default winds from the winds aloft forecast to get a good estimate of time enroute...

Okay, I've decided to start on my commercial, and after looking at 61.129 I have painfully accepted the fact that the 300nm cross country really needs to be vfr, solo. That means long trips I've done on instrument flight plans (imc or vmc) won't cut it, and more painfully, long trips I've done with...

When you are flying to a non-towered airport, do you always have to fly the pattern, or can you make a straight-in or crosswind approach? If these are permissible, under what circumstances? Thanks...

I need a couple of motel rooms within an hour's drive (or preferably less) of Oshkosh but my hunt 'n peck searches show everything booked. Any suggestions? It would be nice if there were an airport close by so I could fly in and book car/hotel.

I have always read and been taught that a turn coordinator is usually powered by electricity. Is the turn coordinator, in itself, an electric motor? Or does an electric-powered fan supply the air to spin the gyro? Anybody have any insight for me? Thanks.

What's the farthest west civilian airport in the Aleutians? I see military airports on Shemya and Attu: what happens if a civilian aircraft comes along and politely asks to join the traffic pattern? -- all the best, Dan Ford email (put Cubdriver in subject line) Warbird's...
