You guys work with many personalities and also save lives and for that I salute you! I saw this one on you tube:

I became an ICS member a little while ago and I don't know exactly what's going on with the members over there but it's been very negative. The most negative I've ever seen in General Aviation. I posted, wondering what was going on and I didn't get an explanation on why people are so bitter over...

It's been many highs and lows for Sir Richard Branson to enter space:

Flying fish in the Utah mountains?

Does anyone have any experience flying a M20K? What's it like to fly? Is it expensive to maintain? Thank you!

Keeping politics out of it. I didn't know George HW was a Navy Pilot here are some facts: Enlisted in U.S. Navy on his 18th birthday - June 12, 1942 Earned the "Wings of Gold" Naval Aviator Rating June 9, 1943 at the age of 18 years, 11 months, and 27 days Qualified as carrier pilot on USS...

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/11/us/air-force-hurricane-michael-damage.html I didn't know a few things about Tyndall Airforce Base: #1. Each F22 costs 339 Million Dollars #2. They actually "Part" out airplanes for other working airplanes. #3. (IMO Most important) 49% of the fighters...
