Running runup? by
G. Burkhart

go through the run-up checklist. This was done at airports that had run-up
areas readily available. Fairly recently, I went with an instructor that
taught me to do a run-up during taxi on airports that don't have a run-up
area...

Restored B-17 Flying video by
C. Massey
I tried to give Jay first dibs on this video, but apparently he doesn't want
it.
It's a fully restored B-17 and the video (shot about 1 week ago) shows the
engines starting, takeoff, flying and the landing. It's 56 meg and almost 14
minutes long. Pretty cool...

Airliner crew flies 150 miles past airport by

Been a busy day today.
Wonder what a heated airline policy discussion looks like that could
end up missing calls from ATC and spend 150 miles off course...?
Perhaps they were really just busy texting....
