The idea isn't new, a few years ago the Raven was doing this until it was written off, but still....9,500 ROC! Not too bad, eh?

Isn't flying yet but can't wait to see it in action.
ATTENTION! software found that aids journalists reporting air disasters!
So THIS is how they fabricate stories following accidents!!! Note this is an Aussie version but I'm sure there's an american version as well.

I know that the typical poster here would never dream of going to Burning Man, but what the heck. Has anyone ever tried it out?
Me and the wifey are toying with some road trip ideas and out of nowhere came the crazy thought of going to Burning Man (late August). She had never heard of it but...
Gotta wonder if there's has been ANY MU-2 engine failure which didn't result in a crash.

Happened around my neck of the woods - glad to see no one got busted up. Looks like a Cessna 414 or 421 from the pic.

Someone posted a pic or website awhile back with some T6s skimming on a lake...well here's the vid. Balsy stuff! Or not? Anyone ever try this?

Shows you what happens when you mix a small runway + hot n high + overloading. That's what it looks like to me anyways.

Miracle he didn't wipe out the onlookers!!!
Cruising around with Yahoo's video search I found this cool vid on some german site where a flight onboard an AN-2 is taped from inside. The startup sequence is really cool, looks like they're having a b!tch of a time getting her started. They also switch to outside views as well. I'd love to...
...4 Wright 3350s pounding away has been substituted by the whine of turbines, but this video captures a moment in time in history when this sound was commonplace. Sit back and enjoy.

ps. that monster looks slow as h*ll, doesn't it?
Just read that it went on it's 1st public flight. Any thoughts? Will it sell? It's got a lot of competition. Even Embraer jumped on the wagon with its VLJ a few months ago.
I can imagine that pax would not like to see those jets mounted on top of the wings like that, and would not be...

I saw this video expecting to hear something like a Hercules x 8, but man this was different, more akin to a helicopter....I bet those huge props are turning reaaaaalllyyy slow, around 1000rpm (or less?). Note: each motor puts out 15,000 hp...

For those down here at FLL or whereabouts...where are all the Air & sea show planes based out of this year? With only one day to the show I would be expecting the usual excitement of F-15s, F-14s and the thunderbirds doing their thing out of FLL but it's friday and only a lone C-130 parked on...
Sit back and enjoy the show...and turn off the volume, the soundtrack is so gay. :p
