    plane lands on highway

    The owner of the plane gives an on-camera interview about the crash. Does not have anything nice to say.......... Note: you have to watch the commercial first. http://video.fox23news.com/viewer/viewerpage.php?Art_ID=29910&tf=wxxaviewer.tpl

    plane lands on highway

    I learned to fly from that airstrip. Took a ride by about an hour after the crash. Route 7 was shut down, so you couldn't get too close to the scene. Just glad to hear that everyone survived. http://www.capitalnews9.com/content/top_stories/default.asp?ArID=106115

    declaring an emergency

    You mis-interpretted what I posted. My first comment applies to what AVbug posted about emergencies. My last two comments were relating to Avbugs comments about firefighting on the ground. Having said that, everything Avbug said about dealing with in-flight situations makes perfect sense...

    declaring an emergency

    Avbug; well said ! Completely understand your reasoning on the declaring an emergency vs. dealing with the situation issue. I have been doing fire/rescue/ems for 25 years, and always get a chuckle at the scene of a working fire. You can always tell the rookies from the seasoned guys, as the...

    Flight Programs w/o 4 year

    The Marines had a program called MECEP, which allowed you to go to college after boot camp and training school. However, you should never join the military on the premise of just becoming a pilot. You have to want to be a Marine, or soldier, or military person first. Becoming a pilot later is...

    Poor flight planning ??

    The Empire State Plaza is located in Albany, NY. I was trying to be kind by stating "poor flight planning" Honestly, do not know how they didn't know that this was not a good idea.

    Poor flight planning ??

    I actually saw this aircraft during this incident. Thought it was unusual to see a small aircraft making a climbing turn from over the city. Did not realize that he had been flying too low just before. They threw him in jail ! http://www.wrgb.com/news/local/local_news.asp?selection=article_22408

    Diamond Katana or C172?

    Try the Katana. It is a bit more sensitive than a 172. To me, the 172 flies like an old pickup truck. The seat geometry was awkward for me, but you get used to it. Also, with the Katana, you use the rudder to level the wings in bumpy air. I thought the Katana was fun to fly, but it sure...

    Curtiss A-1 Triad reproduction flies !

    Had the opportunity to see the Glenn Curtiss Museum's reproduction A-1 Triad fly today, from Keuka Lake. The plane has made three successful flights to date. Here are a couple of pictures that I took when it was first placed in the water. http://members.tccoa.com/steve1995/triad-1.jpg...

    AA Engine Backfire out of ORD?

    Actually, one of the engines ingested a flock of birds, causing it to explode. Debris landed in a residential neighborhood. The aircraft made a successful emergency landing. The best thing was that everyone got out safely, with no injuries. Thumbs up to "The Crew"...

    139th AS???

    I used to know a lot of the pilots/crew when they were flying the first model ski-birds, the D (which was a converted A model). Now they are flying the LC-130H, and the old ex-Navy F ski birds. They all had nothing but good things to say about the mission. A couple of friends of mine are...

    Today was not a good day for students at BFI

    Well, there's three that come to mind quick; 1. I was flying the pattern doing T&G's on RWY 28 at Schenectady, when a student checks in requesting to enter the pattern for touch & go's. He is assigned RWY 28, but fails to identify the proper runway. We finally spot him lined up with RWY 22...

    a terrorist road map, but also good for nuke-plant avoidance

    Shortly after 9/11, and as general aviation got "back on-line", the AOPA had listed the warnings pertaining to the "no-overfly / do not circle" areas. Of course, nuclear reactors were included on that list. And West Milton was not listed on their site at first. It was amended later on to...
