I need to order checks. Does anyone know where you can get checks with a GA theme? None of the internet check companies seem to have GA aircraft. I found some Air Force fighters, but I want something to do with GA. I know that I can have checks made with a custom photo, but I was wondering...

wrote in message P.S. Not a lot of comments from the US about the A380 now it flies. Nothing extraordinary to comment on. Big is not new. The 380 is only a few feet larger than a 747; beefier, longer wing for the weight, but essentially they've just added a second...

After more than two years, and less than a month from scheduled launch, NASA decides to pull the shuttle off the launch pad, transport it back to the vehicle assembly building, and install a HEATER? This took two years to figure out? I swear, Gene Kranz must shake his head in disbelief at what...

In late May I am planning to fly across the US, from NY to southern California, with a return stop in Denver, CO. This will be done in a single-engine, turbo-normalized Bonanza with on-board O2, and this is the first time I have done this. My plan is to fly the majority of it under IFR flight...

Does anyone here use Filemaker Pro for keeping their logbook? I've just finished creating one in version 6 because Excel seems to be getting unwieldy as my time grows. Since I'm a newbie at FMP, I wouldn't mind letting someone more experienced with the program take a look and give me some...

Howdy. I'm a PP-ASEL VFR only renter living in Seattle. I go to the UW and live in Wallingford. Due to school I haven't been up in 6mo. I finally got a break (well lighter load) and the weather is nice; but it turns out that the place I use rent from no longer has rentals (Aeroflight a BFI). I...

After landing in Deland, FL just last month (on our way to Titusville, Florida), and witnessing the almost unbelievable sky-diving activity there, it came as no surprise to read that there was a fatal accident there a couple of days ago.
