I arrived at KTZR/Bolton Field/Columbus OH at 0930 this morning for what I was told would be a 1000-1030 arrival of the donated FedEx 727. By 1125, I could no longer wait (had to go pick up my son from summer school at 1145). As I was leaving the airport boundaries, I heard the crew call inbound...

According to a friend, the new Turbo Cirrus has a "serious C of G issue". Is this true? Anyone cares to elaborate? Gerd

We've been talking about the dangers of running MOGAS that containa alcohol I thought this was interesting. I bought a new weed eater a few months ago and let it sit for a few months.

Can anyone explain the new NavCanada fee structure that is to take effect in March? How are light GA aircraft affected? Who do the overflight communication fees apply to?

Anybody else have this problem? ...
