I'd bet that the 73A markings are so someone (oil industry with rigs in the gulf, for instance) can identify their aircraft at long range - "Is that one of our helicopters landing on the oil rig?" The 73A may be part of an N number, or may not have anything to do with the N number at...

I now see the guy as a prick based not only on this, but added to what a whole bunch of what folks who know him say. Make your own determination and if you get a chance, flip him off at OSH. AV Press "Yeager's comments on Crossfield hit new low" Here is a transcript of William P. Warford's...

Hi All, I am trying to design a webpage that will calculate fuel consumption for common passenger aircraft (mostly Boeing and Airbus models to start). My guess is that the key variables would be distance traveled, aircraft type, and (as a proxy for weight), percent full. I know other variables...

Very spectacular footage from the Russian Air Show Catastrophe in July of 2002. Stunning to say the least. Greetings from Hans http://www.jumpingpixels.com/russianjetcrash.html

What is the approximate econemy class seat mass for the average 100+ seat aircraft? Thanks.

First impressions after viewing the main picture and extra features. It's quite professionally done, but ultimately it's not a flying or aviation DVD, it's the history of Van Nuys Airport. Thus, unless you're familiar with the airport--I'm not--it can be a little boring. I found myself hitting...

Air Show season is over - but pictures are still available. Welcome to my redesigned web site: http://www.aviation.kamela.waw.pl More than 500 hundred high quality pictures. I always appreciate votes for my site at "Best Aviation Sites". :-) Enjoy.

JFK gave Barbara Pierce a lesson in life in the summer of 1944 (making her a "Cape Cod heiress"), and to her eventual husband, JFK gave a personal motive for revenge. Perhaps if George and Barb had announced their earlier engagement or even if George had given Barb a diamond instead of a cheap...

Where can I find a fairly complete flight deck from a large twin or small airliner? Before I make a proposal to buy something like this, I need to research the cost. We're planning to use it as a display and for educational purposes. If it is shorter than 13' tall we could build a trailer around...
