"LIFEGUARD" Flight Explorer by Micbloo
This is pretty cool. I got in from the"Flightweb" site. You can track all "Lifeguard" flights (Pretty much) in the US. And it's pretty much in Real Time (actually a 5 minute delay). http://www.flightweb.com/flight_explorer/

"The Aviator" by Orval Fairbairn
My wife and I went to see "The Aviator" yesterday. Comments: The planes and some of the flying sequences were great -- especially the S-38 and the reproduction of the H-1 and the CGI of some of the other planes. Acting: Leonardo DiCaprio should *never* have been cast as a pilot! His "flying"...

"W" is JFK's son and Bush revenge killed Kennedy in 1963 by Ross C. Bubba Nicholson
JFK gave Barbara Pierce a lesson in life in the summer of 1944 (making her a "Cape Cod heiress"), and to her eventual husband, JFK gave a personal motive for revenge. Perhaps if George and Barb had announced their earlier engagement or even if George had given Barb a diamond instead of a cheap...

I just discovered this new site that's giving away a $100 gas voucher, for free! Can you believe the price of gas these days? In my area it's currently over $4.75 per gallon, and all signs point to it going even higher, very soon. I remember the days when gas used to cost $0.99 per gallon, but...

"Alaska's Bush Pilots...The Real Deal" DVD by Sally Student Pilot
I am a female student pilot and the other evening I saw a commercial about "Alaska's Bush Pilots...The Real Deal". It was a documentary but I can't find it anywhere. Anybody know where I can purchase it? They said it was in HD so it may not even be available. Help!

Maybe this is old stuff for most on this newsgroup, but I just discovered this. I rarely if ever hawk a particular product on Usenet, but this older DVD set (1998) is fantastic. My brother-in-law gave it to me for Christmas....thinking it was some boring collection of fuzzy black-and-white 1960s...
