This actual link seems like both aircraft were operating as Part 91?

They don’t call it the Slowdowner for nothing…. LOVED the 180hp Sundowner. Comfortable and roomy, could still carry a good bit with full tanks, but you aren’t going to get there fast. Once you get the hang of landing one they are a fine airplane. I was just damned glad I had 5 other partners...

Look at a Sportcruiser, you won’t be disappointed and likely will be very impressed. I am 6ft. It has adjustable pedals that I have to move forward, 6’3” should not be an issue. 46.5 inch cabin width is the largest in the class, divided from your pax by a 4-inch center console. For comparison a...

As I noted above, Special events bring big costs and the FBO’s are entitled to recover that and make a profit. Make hay while the sun is shining, yada yada… For the ramp and the hangar area they control/lease, or the runway/taxiways that are shut down for parking that they route, I can easily...

Something similar happened in the Sundowner partnership I used to belong to. I was recently minted, and heading off on my first long cross country with a friend. Club had a longstanding rule to only fill the tanks to the tabs after a flight, no one in the current group really remembered why...

But how will I listen to football on a Sunday afternoon while flying?

That depends… Got Rotax???

ProAir Indianapolis to Detroit

They are far better off applying to any of the majors directly, than getting stuck in the Regional Circus. if they had the resume and skills to get on the line at FedEx, someone like United, Atlas, JetBlue, etc would scoop them up fast.

NBAA-BACE?? The ramps were probably full.

This is a first-time F1 Street Race in Las Vegas. It is a “Must-Attend-and-Be-Seen-At” for the chattering class. Cost will be no object or deterrent to many attending. Long ago when we were planning for the First F1 at Indianapolis, an Indycar official described it like this. The difference in...

RANT ON : I am one of the people that used to travel around the country to work these type of events, especially Super Bowls. I don’t come cheap…. The last Super Bowl I worked was a 120 hr winter nightmare. These Irregular events take a huge amount of pre-planning months in advance and people...

That can be temporarily adjusted.

Just saw the email! I said at the races that the most likely candidate could be Wendover. Wide open spaces, plenty of emergency landing space, good weather, and lots of casino hotels very close by. Not too mention all of the history.

Get a reservation for parking NOW….

I know where my old plane ended up. As a parts donor for similar aircraft still flying….

But the pilot has to realize he needs to do that first.

Used to be based at AID. Only had a couple of dealings with them. Some people hate them, some people like them. in my case, they talked me out of an experimental I was considering. In hindsight, turned out to be sound advice.

A lot of experienced aviators have gotten bitten this summer, almost all of them by poor ADM, it seems.

Book your space at Indy Regional NOW for that one.
