    Worst Flight I've Ever Flown - Many Mistakes

    Kimberly, as a first flight into Boonville you did fine. It is way waay different than Petaluma, tight little valley and small runway. I have been there a few times and it is a very different sight picture 50 vs 75 feet and 800 feet shorter than you are used to. Sounds like you did fine even if...

    Foreflight Failure In Flight

    I did my first WingX flight today, and I think I like the way it has extended runways with big numbers on the ends and the terrain that pops in with yellow and red if you are lower than surrounding dirt. I was able to pop between FF and Wingx and utilize the best of both. between the two it is...

    I had my fuel ripped off.

    Might want to check the Gascolater as well, I had a leak last year and was sure I had "fuel Mice" just as you did.

    BRAND NEW RAM Yoke Mount for iPad

    BRAND NEW RAM Yoke Mount for iPad

    pictures of the ram mount upside down in a 172 - looks to work just fine. 1969 k model so the later years have different yokes which may be problematic. Flicker LInk: http://www.flickr.com/photos/48134254@N02/with/7072371347/

    Cracks force inspection of entire A380 fleet

    Recently we flew from LA to Sydney on a 747 outbound and 380 return. In Cattle Class the 380 was less comfortable for those of us at 6'. The video / electronics were better on the 380. 15.5 hours in any plane is more than enough. Use those air miles and upgrade to business on anything...
