flying for a charity by Kyler Laird
I've tried to follow the "charitable airlift" discussions here over the years and it usually makes my head hurt. I was just contacted with a request to transport and I could really use some Usenet-level advice. (Yeah, I've got AOPA legal services but I get better info here.) There's a Rottweiler...

Help Our UAL Friends by Orval Fairbairn
A neighbor, who is UAL (ret) asked me to circulate this one. They make some pretty good points, as the UAL people currently stand to get reamed pretty badly. ***************** Due to the bankruptcies of Delta and Northwest there is a very strong call in Washington for immediate pension relief.*...

Close-up pictures of knobs/panels? by GEG
I have a need to get some close-up images of knobs and/or control panels of aircraft to create my own rendering of a panel. I'd like to overlay different knob types to get a feel of how it will look. Can anyone point me to a source or have any help they can offer?

When did planes become wings? by The Thunder Child
I've been reading a 1910 Tom Swift book - Tom Swift and his Airship, in which the dirigible is also outfitted with "planes" - i.e., wings. And of course that's where monoplane, biplane and triplane come from, though I confess I'd never connected the two. So, can anyone tell me when an aeroplane's...

Jet Blue On CNN by John A. Weeks III
Anyone else watch the Jet Blue Airbus on CNN do the emergency landing at LAX with the nose gear pointed crossways? It is worth checking out the highlights on CNN to watch it. That had to be one of the best and smoothest landings I have ever seen. The pilot really greased it in, and held the nose...
