Can anybody point out a good bibliography or article that describes the differences in landing on a grass airstrip for the first time, tips and advices? Thanks

Since my family is not thrilled by the idea of flying in a small plane, and I get bored flying solo, I am wondering what other venues there are for a (VFR) pilot to fly people around. Basically I am looking for excuses to do scenic flights within a 100 NM radius of San Diego. CAP and Angel Flights...

Any Osh bound from the east coast? Got an empty seat? Need help w/ gas? Monk

May be doing some international flying soon and want to get started on my homework before doing so. When I was in college a professor showed us a website that did a good job of informing a pilot on the rules of flying internationally. It provided info about flight plans, airspace/airport fees,...

A year or so ago I bought audio headphones from Sony (Fontopia) that impressed me greatly with their small size and audio quality. Furthermore, they block out most external sound.

I was flying though Driggs, Idaho at 1.5 feet last week in a rental car (2,500 miles in 11 days -- jeeze a plane would have been nice!) and was surprised at the very professional airport we passed. Several Biz jets, lots of big hangars, nice facilities. I was wondering what was in Driggs that...
