If you're looking for 'The Defender', check out your local library - if they don't have it, you can probably have it sent to your library all for free. After I got my PPL, I was curious about the stories of old airplanes hiding in barns out on the prairies. I had read about his Zero rebuild and foun...

Nope - THIS is the best aviation movie ever. I think most people's build up time included somthing like this.

Flight of Passage by Rinker Buck - YES! I'm glad I'm not the only one. Fantastic story. Yeager: An Autobiography http://www.amazon.com/Yeager-Autobiography-Chuck/dp/0553256742 Death and Deliverance by Robert Mason Lee. A very Canadian story about the Herc crash at Alert in 1991.

I've done that before in the Diamond...something sounds different while you're talking to the other guy, and you quickly notice the 'Tx' on the radio, and that everybody else just listened to you troubleshoot the issue. Oh well. I used the same tri-fold kneeboard, but I found that If I kept it open,...

I only have a PPL and so I've never worked commercially as a pilot. I think that video should be terrifying. If the wing had dug in, if the aircraft stalled and crashed, maybe it only kills the crew, maybe it takes out a city block. The other hundreds, or maybe thousands of employees would lose thei...

NO, I think these are what you're after....

I would suspect that the effect on a corporate operator would be minimal...transmitting APIS submissions through eAPIS is a pain in the ass, but it's not too rough...especially if you're flying a lot of the same pax all the time. Just one more step. The GA sector will likely create a stir about it, ...

WJFlyer -

Will they be able to hunt subs the same way as they did in the Aurora with a faster aircraft like the 737?

I've always thought this site would do well with an 'ebay' type application, or at the very least, a 'garage sale' forum. I imagine that there are lots of people with books, headsets, etc that are sitting around looking to be offloaded, and an equal amount of people getting into the game that don't ...

I had a business prof in university that gave me a new impression on management. He came from poverty in India and climbed his way up the ladder through educational scholarships put up by companies and other institutions. I’m sure it has a lot to do with his upbringing, but I think I learned more fr...

Business Strategy 101: Another scenario. Company X and Y compete in the same market, selling the same product. Company X is a typical company in the industry and sells their product for a fair price of $10. Company Y has invested heavily in technology and people, which results in a lower cost struct...

I remember reading a story that happened back in the late 80's. This guys is out hiking in the woods out near Ottawa somewhere and comes accross a Voodoo in the bush. It looks robbed and vandalized, but is intact, which confuses him a little. Anyways, the guy is excited about what he's found in the ...

He gave this as a part of an address at the University of Pennsylvania. I don't think anyone has to like his music, his group, or him at all, but what he has to say is, in my opinion, very intelligent, and shouldn't be clouded by someone's love of 'Motorhead'. The fact that there is an election comi...

I ended up sitting next to the owner on an AC flight from YWG-YYZ back in April. I saw him reading a flying mag in the departure area and ended up in the seat next to me. I asked him about the magazine, he said he saw an article about a 182 on the cover, and he was interested because he owned one. B...
