    Bucket list - Collings Foundation offering the chance to be a Phantom Phlyer

    There were a few dozen F-4's assigned to Edwards when I was there. I thought they were cool looking, but those nasty J-79 engines poured out some pretty nasty fumes. And the smoke...you could easily see them on a ten mile final. I worked at the flight line fire station (crash/rescue), and those...

    Ways to Mount iPad in the Cockpit?

    I have the seat rail mount in the C182 and it's firmly in place. The mount and flexible arm are pretty rugged, however the weight of the iPad does cause some movement when under way. Nothing that isn't manageable. The problem I have is that I've mounted it almost fully forward on the rails, and...
