    Flying in Germany

    Hi, I´m Spanish, not German, but being it at 6 Cessna flight hours from my home airport and having flown it a couple of times, I hope I can help in some way. There is GA in Germany, don´t worry. They are, with France and the UK the most "Cessna populated" countries in Europe. You´ll find...

    Looking for a 172

    Nope, not me but Reims Aviation. They started making Cessna´s under license in France: 152, 172, 182, 337... As the European terrain is more mountainous than the American, they decided a Continental IO-360 would work much better around the Alps, Sierra Nevada (the Spanish one), etc. Added a...

    Looking for a 172

    If you don´t mind coming to find it on Europe, I have one with LONG RANGE tanks (11 hours), 210 HP, C/S prop, remanufactured engine and new prop 30 hours ago... It´s far, FAR away, but maybe this is what you are looking for. Send me a private, or write right here or whatever if you feel like...

    Nonpartisan view of the war on terror

    Hiya everybody. This is my first post in here. I´m Spanish, what means I´m away of being an "American pilot" in any way :( and this is an old threat too, but as Spain is mentioned and I´m a pilot, I thought I´d have your "clearance" to write something, at least about this matter. Am I cleared...
