... when you propose at an airshow ... when you propose at an airshow you just flew in! I'm sure the first has happened many times, but the second??? Well, I actually know of this happening, last year or the year before at Aviation Nation. It was the Saturday show, and the East Coast F15 Demo pilot ...

Missed almost the whole show :-( Caught few seconds of the TBirds, but missed almost everything else. But that's all right, cause I had a blast there. Saw a lot of that look on kids faces when it just "clicks" and they want to learn to fly. It's worth it :-)

Yeah, that was the one, and it hit pretty hard. I didn't know either at all, but many in Southern Nevada were very close to them. I'll be over at the CAP aircraft, so feel free to swing by. I'm Dan Skorynko, and probably the fattest guy thtere in a flight suit. Well, except the Captain by the newest...

I actually left right before the TBirds went up. I was there part of the morning, but mostly at our office (our Wing CO crashed into Mt Potosi) dealing with the phone calls. When I left (Security Forces didn't want us over there for safety) I just didn't feel like finding a place to park and then ru...

I'll be by the CAP aircraft. I would sit at the CAP recruiting booth, but they want us in blues for that. I can't afford to buy them ATM, and a flight suit hides my fat gut better! And if you are genuinly interested (and in case you dind't realise who I was at the movie premire last year, look for D...

Even at Phase one it's damn close. One needs to balance the risk for the reward. Phase One is close enough IMO.

And I get the airshow any time I want in the offseason. Just gotta drive to Nellis :-)

If you're CASS approved you can jump, regardless of the airline but pending PIC approval. What this screwed up is non pilot employees jumping. For example, before this I (as a weight and balance Lead) could jumpseat on my airline. No longer. This also kinda messed up (I think) pilots from OTHER airl...

Just a thought on power supplies. While it's certianly good advice that a higher price isn't better, I don't agree with simply saying an $80 PSU will be fine. It's not a cost thing at all. Buy name brand. I'm not talking fromt he perspective of recognition, but from that of quality. There are a few ...
