Did something get changed last night with this site? I could not get on at work today as it was being blocked as an "online community" or some such. I did not have any problems getting onto the Red or Purple boards...:confused: Some would say I was 1/3 more productive at work today than I...

(cross post) On my flight this weekend when I got transferred from departure to Center I plugged in the xm radio like I always do and noticed right away that the music mute function had quit working. Has anyone ever experienced this with their Lightspeed headset? If so was it fixable by you...

So, I can't let this gorgeous weather go without a trip to see the grand-kids. After some posts a while back about GSO and whether or not they have a landing fee, I've decided to fly into there instead of INT and check them out. It's only 10 miles from GSO to the kids. My question is for those...
