757-767-777 DNA by [email protected]
757-767-777 DNA: What's in common, what's different? I know all three share the same cockpit(section ahead of '41'). This is why the 757's front end looks bug-eyed, the 767, just right, and the 777 - slightly squinty, widening aft to accommodate a nearly 747-wide cabin. Secondly, the...

Looking for drone operator in Dallas by Piotr Mancini
I could not find a NG dedicated to drones or quadcopters. This is not commercial, it is rather unusual, historic and fun. We are preparing a Free Open Source 3D Model of Dealey Plaza. http://www.dealey-plaza.org/ For details, see post in the Laser Scanner Forum.

is there a NOTAM for a no-fly zone over the Arkansas oil spill. by [email protected]
Rumor has it that the FCC has issued a NOTAM for the area over the Arkansas oil pipeline spill. Is that true? Sorry, I am not a pilot so I don't know where to go to find the official statement on these. Directing me to that, would also be much appreciated. -- FF
