    Zuckerberg Obtains Student Pilot Certificate

    :lol: My wife works as a receptionist for a AME and my instructor is a DPE. Filling out FAA forms is a high bar for many pilots.

    AirVenture webcams are live!

    I think before it was volunteers, who did a great job, but I think they have a dedicated group now that's part of EAA. Also, Dick Knapinsky said since the grass is so dry this year, they've been able to move the mowers to other tasks. Maybe that helped.

    AirVenture webcams are live!

    The cameras are up and running. The grass looks really brown, but it looks like this evening (7/12) it rained. The video is really sharp and they have microphones on the cameras too, so you can hear sound. https://www.eaa.org/airventure/live

    Trad Session get-togethers at AV?

    Also, lovely rendition of the song. I'm a sucker for songs with rich harmony, like barbershop quartets and groups like this! I also took a look out for scores for the song. Lots of SATB (Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass) scores. If you're serious, find one in D or G. Hey, I got volunteered to take...

    Trad Session get-togethers at AV?

    If you can find a scored version of the song, bring it along and sing whatever part you want. Of course, when I typically hear this song at pubs, the crowd is either shouting out the words, singing it in some other key, or sobbing over their beer. :biggrin: BTW, your sister planning on dropping...

    Trad Session get-togethers at AV?

    Also, if anyone is planning on dropping in, let me know. Especially instrumentalists. Seeing as this is an inaugural event, would love to see who else is interested. While we want to focus on traditional jig/reel tunes, I'm putting together a list of popular Irish songs that are fun to sing...
