PHOTOS: N14 - August 14, 2009 Kathy Jaffe Challenge Some nice stuff as usual, but the shocker & catch of the day. was my first Phemon 100 biz jet...yes, biz jet at Flying W. Also, I missed it happening but an Extra 300 gear collapsed upon landing, the pilot was OK. I do have photos of the damage....

10 years ago I flew in a glider to celebrate my 30th birthday but the glider was destroyed by lightning. I have recently returned to the same air fielsd and flew with the same instructor. I then went up again and flew a loop the loop with another instructor. See my scrapbook for more information...

I saw in either Flying or AOPA Pilot that the FAA has passed the request so that our chute packs are now good for 180 and not 120 days. When does it take effect? Is my pack that just expired actually still good? TIA

Does anyone find that when you do a roll off the top of the loop and if you pull to hard you get a bit of a snap roll?

A friend of mine owns a 7KCAB project that needs anew home. Asking $6000. This is an undamaged, relatively clean project. The project DOES NOT INCLUDE: Engine (O-320) Propeller Engine Mount Baffling Wing Struts (lost not damaged)

Me and couple buddies are considering buying a early 80's model 8KCAB but I am a little worried about doing sportsman level aerobatics in a plane that old.

All right! Can't a guy get away from civilization for a while, safely out of e-mail range, without the world falling apart? Ok, ok, maybe only that sliver of the world that cares about stalls and spins in light airplanes. I come home after nearly three weeks traversing the Pacific Northwest giving...

Spins have NEVER been in the private pilot PTS. The PTS (Practical Test Standard) only has been in existence for around 20 years or so. The last time spins were required for a Private Certificate was back in the early 1950's or maybe the late 1940's. Note that there is nothing that prevents...

http://w3n-a.blogspot.com/2008/12/secondary-stall.html This stall is called a secondary stall since it may occur after a recovery from a preceding stall. It is caused by attempting to hasten the completion of a stall recovery before the airplane has regained sufficient flying speed. When this...

http://w3n-a.blogspot.com/2008/11/descent-at-minimum-safe-airspeed.html Too fast a glide during the approach for landing invariably results in floating over the ground for varying distances, or even overshooting, while too slow a glide causes undershooting, flat approaches, and hard touchdowns. A...

There is an absolutely amazing video at this site: http://www.chilloutzone.de/files/08102703.html Some people around here believe it's a hoax. Does anyone know if this for real. (If it is, it has to qualify as the save of the decade, if not century.) rick

In the aerobatic movie at http://www.fulldeflection.com , Svetlana Kapanina seems to hardly notice the g-forces. I guess sometimes its +9 and -4 or so, but I can only see her hair go up and down. I have watched this film many times (ahh Svetlana !).
