Live... from Kill Devil Hills... by
Dave S
Thanks to the modern marvel of live television... millions of people
worldwide just got to see the wright flyer replica attempt to lift off
and... not.. quite.. make it.
Nothing but hurt feelings, and the flyer appears undamaged...

Big Kahunas by
Jay Honeck
http://makeashorterlink.com/?J63F258A6
Say what you will about GW -- he's got big kahunas flying into Iraq to spend
Turkey Day with the troops...
Sounds like even his parents didn't know about it until he didn't show up in
Kennebunkport!

Expired WAC Charts by
AXA
Does anyone out there have any or all expired WAC charts that they
would like to sell or give away? As I've seen posted before, I'd like
to try and use them as wallpaper.
Thanks in advance,

Average brokerage fee? by
sue t
I've been scanning the 'net to get an idea of an average brokerage fee for
an aircraft (1968 Cherokee 140) valued in the $20,000 to $25,000 range. My
expectation would be advertising the aircraft and acting as initial point of
contact. The aircraft would need to be sold from my home base, not...

The myth that won't die. by
Roger Long
There it was on again, on "Nova" of all places, in a show about the Wright
brothers the night before the centennial.
The "Equal transit, air has to go farther over the top so it's faster" crap.
They even had the worst of the diagrams that usually accompany this
explanation. The air goes over the...

Centenial TFR by
Roger Long
I just read that Bush will speak at the Kill Devils Hill bash. Does this
mean that the Wright Flyer won't be able take off?
Nothing else will be flying, how inappropriate.

How I celebrated the Anniversary by
jon
I returned a few hours ago from my flight to celebrate the 100th
anniversary.
A few years ago I had an idea for a flight I wanted to take but never
motivated to do it.
Thanks in a good part to a post in rec.piloting asking what was planned to
celebrate the anniversary.
I thought to do it on the...

Google N Number search by
III
I just learned that one can type the N-Number of an airplane into
Google, then click search. At the top of the results list there will a
"Search FAA database" link. Click that, and the FAA registration info
turns up. It takes less time than it took me to write this message.
Maybe that's old news,...

online avnews ... what's it good for? by
virga
....and what would you like to see there.
it just seems to me that maybe the excitement and spark is gone. AVweb
was probably the first and surely the best, but now it's one of many.
Zoom's online rag is daily, but his history makes all of the content
questionable. EAA and AOPA are a bit too much...
