Jay Honeck[_2_]

videos on the internet. (See it he
http://www.alexisparkinn.com/aviation_videos.htm ) As a result, I receive a
LOT of videos, sent in from all over the world, and have seen all manner of
landings on film.

Remember that brown pairs are best suited to tan, greens, beige, brown
and other earth tones that are darker in color. Tan colored shoes
match well with lighter tan, white, beige, blue and other earth tones
that are lighter. Black shoes look good when matched with gray, black
or navy pants....

WASHINGTON — Air traffic control supervisors in Dallas,
caught in 2005 hiding instances in which planes had passed
too closely, switched to blaming pilots for the incidents
when they were actually the controllers’ fault, aviation
officials said Thursday.

The demise of Thielert by
Michael Henry[_2_]
Aviation diesels have been "on the horizon" for decades. I think Zoche
has been claiming imminent certification since the early '90s. It was
around that time that I first became interested in aviation and I've
been following the progress of aero-diesels ever since.
Thielert was, to me, the...

C172 Take off and Landing Distance by
terry
Some time ago I started a thread about why the take off distance of a
172 increased at lower temperature for the same density altitude,
while landing distance was just a smooth function of density altitude
only.
Those of you who are familiar with the Cessna take off and landing
tables, will know...

The ethanol nightmare has arrived! by
Al[_2_]
I just happened to see a sticker on a fuel pump today that stated "may
contain up to 10% ethanol" while I was filling my car this morning.
Upon further investigation with my fuel retailer, the local fuel jobber,
and the fuel distributor here in Spokane, Washington that there is a

posted is absolutely correct. I'd seen the holsters OK, but wasn't too sure

High definition flight videos on vimeo. by
Jim Logajan
Youtube may be the best known video sharing site, but when a video needs
quality, it is sorely missed - at least for me. So I started looking for a
video sharing site where I could expand the videos to full screen and still

Saw a VLJ in operation yesterday! by
B A R R Y[_2_]
Yesterday, I caught an Eclipse 500 @ HFD.
While I've seen them many times on display at shows, this was the first
time I saw one in actual service. This particular example belonged to a
large medical lab and is used to fly cargo. I was told this plane is
around a month old.
I walked out on...

Who would counterfeit a $31 watch? by
Al G[_1_]
Our local wholesale watch spammer is offering a knock off Casio for $190.
Bi-mart has the REAL thing for about $31 last I checked. Isn't this like
counterfeiting nickels?
