St. Paul Airports by
[email protected]
I am planning a visit to relatives in the St. Paul, Mendota Heights,
Apple Valley area for Labor Day weekend. Any ideas on the best place to
fly into? South St. Paul Municipal seems to be pretty centrally
located, but opinions would be appreciated.

Human factors RECKLESSNESS by
private
My apologies to the Usenet police cross posting but
I am in mourning for friends lost, and in sympathy for the families they
left alone.
This week we have seen behavior that can only be described as reckless.

Historical Weather Data by

I'm looking for daily low temperatures at a certain station (KBED) for
the month of January 2005. Is there a place where METAR data is

EWR! by
Bob Chilcoat
Got a chance to play with the big boys today. The Mid-Atlantic Aviation
Coalition, a PAC that tries to protect NJ Airports from local NIMBY's and
developers, had its annual meeting at the original terminal building
(Building 1) at Newark Airport this morning. The airport waived the landing
fee for...

Yak 52 in NJ by
Bob Chilcoat
Marco,
There used to be one at Somerset (SMQ), but IIRC it was for sale for a long
time and I haven't seen it for some time. ISTR that it moved to Sky Manor
or Alexandria. I'll ask around tomorrow and see if I can find out where it
went.

NOTAM/TFR history by
Ekim
Does anyone have any idea if there is a searchable NOTAM/TFR history
online?
I'm trying to plan for a trip not far from where an air show will be
taking place. The NOTAM for this year's event is not published yet. For
preliminary planning purposes, I'd like to see how big of an area was
TFR'ed...

Fly a P51 Mustang? by
Michael 182
Something Dudley said in the Leaving Usenet thread got me thinking about
flying a P51. I found www.stallion51.com as an option. Does anyone have any
personal experience or know of any dual control Mustangs that offer a chance
to fly them?
Thanks,
Michael

Rogue's Gallery Update -- Talk about diversity! by
Jay Honeck
Wow. When we started the Rogue's Gallery -- a webpage where aviation
newsgroup aficionados can post pictures of our aircraft, in an effort to get
to know one another better -- I had no idea this thing would eventually grow
to encompass 32 different makes of aircraft!
More amazingly, within those...

Hey all, looks like I need to plan a flight to the Detroit area for a
family thing.
The actual function I'm attending is in Ypsilanti but everyone is
meeting at my sister's house which is in South Lyon.
So it looks like either New Hudson (Y47), Willow Run (YIP) or Pontiac

When to acknowledge ATC by
Andrew
ATC says "radar contact, 20 miles south of XYZ, proceed on course". Do
you acknowledge this transmission? How about when ATC says "altimeter
setting 2992" on your first contact after a handoff? Does this require
acknowledgement?
In the past, I've acknowledged such things if the controller was...

I Will Never Understand Wind by
Jay Honeck
Today, for the first time in weeks, dawned clear, cool, and calm. After a
VERY early spring (with temps in the 80s for over a week), we have
experienced extremely high winds and record COLD temps. In fact, we broke
the record here on both Sunday and Monday... (Take THAT all you "global
