A few years ago an L39 Albatros crashed at Frederick airport MD. Anyone have more info on this? I met an owner of an L39 based at FDK while out flying over there. I'm wondering if it is the same guy. Monk

I've recently become enamored of the Twin Beech, but have so far only admired it from a distance. Does anyone know of one near RDU (Raleigh/Durham, NC) with an owner who might like to show me around, or even better, go for a short flight? I'm paying for fuel, of course...

Has anyone tried using a cell/music adapter for this headset? I called about upgrading to the new set they are offering, but it is $50 and I lose my PTT switch to boot. The headset is listed as mono, so does that mean that an adapter for stereo music wouldn't work? Thanks for the help.

Unlike in medical malpractice, most aviation lawsuits are wrongful death actions involving dead pilots. And guess who sues when a pilot dies: THE FAMILIES of dead pilots, blaming the manufacturer for their beloved's death. So if we want aviation economics to improve, we must prohibit our...
