Landed at Gatlinburg (KGKT) yesterday, and took this picture. Looks like it was out of control on runway, guessing on landing, not sure. Article here: https://www.wvlt.tv/2022/09/17/plane-crashes-gatlinburg-pigeon-forge-airport/

Contacted the FBO, and they said there's a waiting list, but didn't seem to go into much detail. Does anyone know how long the wait list is there? Does anyone ever sublet their hangar (i.e. for offseason)? Would the local EAA chapter be a good resource?

Took a flight last evening, and on preflight everything was fine. Upon landing, a "Trim Fault" error came up. I taxied and shut off the engine, leaving the master on. I pushed on the trim switch, no motor sound, no trim movement. Flaps worked normally. Has something like this happened to...

Lightly used Sentry for sale. $325 obo. Don't use anymore with plane upgrade. Only works with foreflight.

I've been poking around looking at the Wingbug and Bom, and noticed that the Wingbug web page is no longer working as of today 1/2/21. Does anyone know anything about the Wingbug company? And does anyone either have a wingbug or know someone who has one?

Great information in here. Trends getting better for GA. Large improvement over the last 10 years in weather related accidents and specifically weather related fatal accidents...

Occasionally I'll search for something on POA and then one of the results will take me back to a thread 7-8 years ago. It's very weird as you scroll through the posts and see a bunch of names/avatars you don't recognize. They were the regulars at the time. And then you wonder where they went...

Does anyone know if there is a pinch hitter type course at Oshkosh?

We read the stories about airports struggling financially, and I believe they are. But at the same time we see long waiting lists (measured in years) to get hangar space. Why not build more hangars and add rental revenue, which will also generate additional revenue associated with all the new...

I'm starting pilot training soon (doing the ground portion now), and have a plan to own a small plane. I am now finding that local hangar space is very difficult to find. Long waiting lists or non returned phone calls/emails are the norm. It's not a question of asking too much money for the...

I am a member of Dan Johnson's excellent website, and I was poking around looking at sales figures for SLSAs. I found an older chart that shows the total top company sales through 2012 and the newer chart with total sales for the top companies through mid 2015. I compared those charts, and...
