Well, it crashes with NS7.1 too... I suppose I'll report that problem to
Netscape.

Remember this problem with the site I mentioned several months ago?

Well, my motherboard died about 6 weeks ago, and I finally replaced it a couple
of weeks ago. Apparently, the constant crashing was one of the symptoms that
something was going wrong, as now I can view the site without any problems...
(other sites and programs that caused similar crashes don't anymore either)
So, now (finally!) I can see the updated site as it was meant.

No, the latest news from Peru is your mother living there as a crack
whore.

Well, the point is, there's nothing wrong at all with the site, contrary
to what I suspected at first...

And the latest breaking news would be the air show coming this weekend,
celebrating the 100 years of aviation (or so I've been told). Currently,
I can report 3 MiG-29a, 3 Mirage 2000s, 3(?) Aermaccchi MB 339s, 2 A-37s
and 3 Su-25s having arrived last week, plus 2 or 3 Su-22s, a C-130 and
an An-32 earlier this week. In about an hour or so (around noon) they should
be starting their practice flights again (going by previous days). In fact,
I think I can hear the engines warming up on the distance right now...
And according to some sources, some aircraft from other countries are supposed
to come too, possibly Colombian Kfirs among them...
They had been planning to do something like that last year, but it had to be
postponed for reasons I currently can't remember (some political scandal or
somesuch, IIRC). Though according to the TV news, it was "cadets practicing
for their graduation" (I highly doubt they would allow any cadets to fly a
MiG-29 or a Mirage 2000, much less break the sound barrier with them!) and
"neighbors close to the base are complaining of broken windows because of the
sonic booms" (which I find to be an exaggeration, as my windows are intact,
and I'd guess the closer they are to the base, the slower they'll fly, be it for
takeoff or landing, while my house lies further away and directly under their
flight path, so why would the effects of the sonic boom be any different?)
I'm going to buy a couple of film reels for the camera, and hopefully by the
end of the month I'll have the pictures scanned and placed on the web. Or does
the Aircraft Walkaround Center accept submissions?
