    Is AvWeb Done?

    I miss him too. He impressed me as a no BS honest kind of guy. I assume that AV Web like most contemporary companies introduced some nonsense BS that he didn't want to deal with. Just my thoughts, which may be BS too.

    Aircraft owners thoughts on IA requirement for annual inspection

    And it's a good idea, to have two sets of eyes on things. Some guys will see stuff others miss. I have a friend who is an A&P that does his condition inspections, but while he has it opened up he gets another to come over and inspect it too.

    Live rifle fire across an open runway

    Yes leave it alone. But next time before you schedule a meeting. Call and ask if they have range practice that day. It wouldn't take many complaints that they may close the airport and turn the whole thing into a tactical training field.
