    Ok. Two week TFR in northern NJ starting tonight, got me thinking. I've been planning a flight from Reading, Pa to Danbury, CT to visit family. Although I don't plan on going in the next two weeks, I need to consider that these TFRs are going to continue popping up. KRDG -> KDXR [TFR...

    Philadelphia Class B air tour. Anyone ever request it?

    I've been thinking about calling Philly ATC on the land line to see what the chances are of getting approval for an air tour of the city. I figure if I stay north of center city / 676 and west of the Delaware, I would stay clear of the approach/departures. Anyone else try this already? Tips/tricks?

    How far a drive to the airport for you?

    This has probably been talked about numerous times. My searches failed to bring any threads up, so I quickly threw in the towel. Just curious what others experience in drive time to get to their home base. Although there are 4 airports within 10mins of me, I currently drive 45mins to get to the...

    Interesting Google Map Trick - You probably already know

    Didn't see any open threads about it, but you can search for airports on google maps using their ID. Merely put in KPHL, KTKI, KECP, etc. Now I did notice that some won't come up because their ID is too close to a searchable word. Example...Erie International (KERI). Simply add "airport" to...

    Visible Wake Turbulence

    Very cool camera work. Using a special video filter, this guy was able to capture the wake turbulence of approaching aircraft during light rain showers. Just another good reason to always keep wake on your mind when around larger aircraft and helos.

    Buying an airplane? I'm not, but I've been doing the whole wishlist search online. Partly because I love just looking, learning more about airplanes and enjoy aviation websites. Started wondering what others look at while scanning the classifieds. Pictures? Price? TSMOH? I find I narrow a...

    Where to start training?......again.

    So it's been about 10 years since I was officially PIC. I placed piloting on the shelf as me and my wife moved, started our family and held our breath as the recession kicked in. Now the aviation beast within is really starting to eat away at me. I yearn to be back in that seat. My 6yr son...
