Calling all Pilots n Paws Pilots! I have another special request I hope you are able to consider. There is a PnP Flight Coordinator that needs our help. She lost her old brown hound recently and needs our help getting a new pup to her. The pup is located in Pittsburg PA and Liz is in MA...

I'm cross posting a request to fly 2 Iraqi war veterans from CA to PA. Last month I was contacted by a retired Air Force dog handler that worked with my Dad in Libya during the mid 1960's. He knows a Marine that is being deployed oversees again and needs to get his ex-marine dog, Solo to his...

I'm in Omaha for most of July and wondered where some of you around here go? I found a hangar at Blair and even though I'm from Omaha, I haven't flown around here much. Any ideas? Allan

I have my plane in Omaha for July/August so my Hangar at 3CK is open and available for anyone on their way to/from Oshkosh. It has Directtv, weather, internet, a couple of computers, fridge, bunk bed and some tools if anyone needs a layover due to weather, problems or just tired. All I ask...

I posted this on AOPA and thought I would also share it here since I had so much fun! Yesterday was a great flying day. I got up again under the foggles to get a few practice approaches in since I passed my IR a few weeks back and felt I was getting rusty. Did OK but there sure was a lot of...

Jeppesen allows the Garmin 430W database to be downloaded 10 days prior to the effective date. Can you use the DB prior to the effective date? I've been reading through the FARs and don't see anything but the need to use a current database for IFR approaches. Thanks, Allan

I was hoping someone at OSH could help me out? I'm looking for a set of LS Zulus and can order them online but thought I would drive up next week if they are for sale and available at OSH. If you see any actually for sale and not just being demo'ed, I would appreciate you letting me know...

My mag drop at run-up has always been great - 50 to 75 on the right mag and 25 to 50 on the left. Last few times I've flown, the drop for the right mag is now 100 and the left is 75. Timing is the obvious thought but is this an indication the mags are getting worn? Condenser problem? Should I...

Just a note to let everyone know I have an empty Hangar avail at 10C if you need a layover to/from OSH. There is also a fuel special all week at 10C. The Hangar is G8 and in the row with the 2 old fuel trucks. The door is open and feel free to get your plane out of the weather. I'm 30 mins...

The field where I'm based doesn't have ASOS or AWOS and lately the light has been out on the sock. This got me to thinking about how I could get weather while in flight. I know ASOS and AWOS is expensive so I wondered how viable it would be to have a private weather station with pilot...

I'm planning to fly to Austin TX from NW IL (10C) and Gaston's is about the half way point. My wife likes the idea of flying to TX if we break it up and don't push too hard. I also like to fly fish. Now for the problem..I might have to connect to work while on this trip and I have a Sprint...
