Serengeti Sunglass Parts by RST Engineering
As luck would have it, I tore the right paddle from its mount on my Serengeti glasses while loading the airplane for departure. Not a chance I can get them fixed by tomorrow morning, but when I get back does anybody know of a good place to get repair parts for Serengetis? Jim

Have you ever... by Jay Honeck
....refused to fly with someone you felt was not entirely safe? (With that person acting as PIC, not as a passenger in your own plane.) I had it happen earlier this year, for the first time, ever, and it felt, well, weird. I think I did the right thing, but it's hard to say. That funny...

Airliner crashes into Hudson River after LGA departure by Kingfish
Holy smokes! CNN is reporting an airliner went down in the Hudson after departing LaGuardia. I heard something about birdstrikes, but can't imagine a double engine failure due to that(?) They sure picked a cold day to go swimming... Hope everybody is ok...

True to the rugged pioneer spirit of our great country, DC cowered for cover again as a Cessna violated the no-fly zone. Fighter jets were scrambled to deal with this imminent threat to the security of our nation.

Story by Mac Daniel in the Boston Globe today states that an F-15 fighter jet, which was escorting Air Force One (President Bush was in Manchester, NH), had to intercept a 1979 Beechcraft Skipper Plane which was flying in the restricted airspace. According to the article, the pilot didn't...

Most Visible Color for Aircraft by [email protected]
Howdy, I've been looking all over, and I can't seem to find any discussions on the relative visibility of various colors for aircraft. I would guess that the best color might be different when viewed against the sky or the ground. Any pointers will be welcome, tom pettit

Why 28V DC? by Bob Martin
I'm working in the avionics integration test facility at Gulfstream... one of the engineers had a question for me (being an airplane person instead of an electrical/computer guy) that I couldn't answer... why do airplanes use 28V DC systems (or 14V)? He says most industrial applications use 24V...

Club Management Issue by Geoffrey Barnes
First off, I'm not directly involved in this situation, but I am trying to gain an understanding on how other FBOs and flying clubs deal with something like it. One of our club members was flying our 182 -- which the club leases from the two gentlemen who own it -- and had what appeared to be an...

Let's move on by Viperdoc[_5_]
Anthony will never admit he's wrong, even though he's asked some of the most naive and ignorant questions, ones that truly demonstrate his lack of knowledge and experience. For the real pilots and students, I suggest joining Pilots of America, a moderated group. It is what this NG used to be,...

Flying when you know there is something wrong with the plane by C J Campbell
I can't remember where I read it, but I seem to recall that in the majority of fatal accidents the pilot knew something was wrong with the airplane before he even took off. It does seem like a popular trend reading through the accident databases. But can anyone point me to a study that...

An Olive Branch by Jay Honeck
Now that it appears that George Bush has been re-elected with a true majority of the popular vote (the first president to do so in 16 years), let me be the first to extend an olive branch to those here who may be disappointed in the results. What has made America strong, and allowed our democracy...

Why airplanes fly by Mxsmanic
Fixed-wing aircraft fly because their wings generate lift as they move forward through the air.

Overweight takeoff / flight by Koopas Ly
