Every now and then some fairly interesting political discussion happens here, I have a question for those who like to participate in that discussion. Where is a good forum for that kind of discussion? I am considering putting up a political web site that mostly will involve people in, or running...

Can anyone tell me which airports in New Jersey are good for plane- watching? I was in the Home Depot parking lot adjacent to Linden Airport when local police told me I couldn't be there, since it was a "restricted area." There's never any point in reasoning with the local police, so I left. any...

what can anyone tell me about FBOs at ISZ, Blue Ash airport, Cincincatti, OH? thanks Greg

You never know the nuggets of wisdom that you will find on this newsgroup. I had flown into the Dayton area to go to the USAFM twice in the past, using both Springfield and Morane airports (for no particular reason). The night before we left on Friday, I searched the archives and found several...

So I cashed in some frequent flyer miles... Can anyone recommend an FBO at KASE from whom I could rent a plane for an...

Could anyone offer me any advice about training at Harvey Field or any experiences with...

All, I am planning a trip in a Cessna 172 from the Netherlands to UK and Ireland. Current idea is to fly the South Coast of the UK up to Havenford West, then to Waterford in Ireland, following the east coast of Ireland al the way up and then to Islay. Does anyone have any tips or interesting...

Just thought I'd update the group. Some months ago, I asked for folks to give me their opinions on the Lowrance Airmap 2000c. Well, I bought one in May and I'm thrilled. Great display, fast to couple with the satellites, low power consumption and very, very easy to learn to use. I just plotted...
