Just ran across this video of a recent successful emergency landing. Lost vacuum and a cylinder, but did a great job of aviating, communicating, and navigating. I can only hope that I would be as cool and collected...

Two friends have started their latest flying adventure, flying from Tucson to Northern Alaska, and then across Northern Canada and down to OSH. They are flying a 172. It's a "shakedown flight" for a trip to Panama/S.America next year. A couple years ago, they flew 2 CT's (Light Sport) from...

The "SureFly" by Workhorse. Under $200K? 2019?

This trip sounds like fun, for first-timers or seasoned Mexico flyers. We've done several trips with the Baja Bush Pilots and hope to join them again on this trip. It's not unusual for 40-65 aircraft to participate! Aug 9-13 (wed-Sun). Guaymas is a beautiful coastal area, with incredible...

'It's always worth looking at Dan Johnson's articles about the LSA market... the US is steadily catching up with Europe in manufacturing. And, for those who pooh-pooh the LSA market, it's worth noting that 2014 statistics show LSA out-delivered GA single engine piston aircraft by more than...

'Always a ditch or fence to screw things up... http://www.cbs5az.com/story/35198706/small-plane-crash-lands-in-goodyear-field?autostart=true

OK, this is weird and I can already see the trolls and naysayers sharpening their pencils... I've been researching the recently announced Flight Design LSA that has S.Korean heritage, the KLA-100. This aircraft has government support, helping to learn more about the GA market and the process of...

Via their Facebook page and the Aero show in Germany, FDUSA has announced a new aircraft, the KLA-100. Not much is known yet. Flight Design and Vessel (S.Korea) have partnered on the plane. It looks like at least some of the R&D was paid for by the Korean government. No real specs yet, and...

It's the Real-Deal.... Meticulously maintained, low-hour aircraft owned by a senior citizen who is giving up his (powered) wings. Owner is 92, 'been flying since he was 19. He received the FAA Master Pilot award in 2009. Opening the hangar and pushing the plane around is getting to be "a...

After being quiet for a while, WingX is out with an update (8.6.10)... Also company growing and moving to larger facility...

Ventusky.com, similar to windytv.com I like the Ventusky interface, but Windytv seems to have a few extra features for pilots

WindyTV.com (also windyty.com) I've found this site very useful for aviation, and it has just recently been updated. It's a fairly ambitious and has a lot of features, so take some time to play (or watch the demo/tutorial videos) before you rush to judgement. It looks like he's added several...

Sunday I was flying just South of Phoenix, just outside of Bravo at about 3k AGL, when I see several traffic targets (tis/ads-b) in front of me moving fast. I can't see any info on them, as they are so close together that their data is overlaid on top of each other on the screen. I look out...

A great time was had by all! 22+ aircraft, from around the Southwest and even MI, WA, OK, PA, KY! Very nice local weather, but a few had to brave some weax coming or going. It was nice to see old friends and meet new ones. Mark your calendar for mid-October next year (exact dates to be announced...
