I'm looking for an image of a Cessna Skyhawk in flight, a pilot side quartering view from the rear like this one (see attachment.) I need it to be part of a composited image I'm making for a book cover. My issue is, I don't have a lot of money for licensing (I've been on/off unemployment for...

Hi everyone... I've been off the radar for a while, won't get into the boring details. I've missed you all and it feels strange and good to come back and see all the old familiar names along with a slew of new ones. Have to stop being such a stranger, even though circumstances are keeping me...

Howdy all, it's been a long time since I've been here. I'm selling all my pilot stuff, $$ and health issues have kept me grounded way too long, and now I'm unemployed as well, so: I have the complete Sportys DVD Private Pilot course in its original binder, great shape, a nice course. Cost...

I picked some flowers yesterday, and a lot of plums today. I had to make a steak to go with that plum salsa. (I made a lot of that too, but I have to take some to work tomorrow.) Anyone want to fly into Portland for pie and coffee?

Got a gutted old wreck? Do what this Sauvie Island (8 mi north of Portland, OR) farmer did! I imagine it would work well with those sagging old "hangar queens" that are just rotting into shreds at our airports, too. :)

This F4 tornado that went through 26 August really ripped up this town. This site has some pictures that include damaged aircraft. They are still cleaning up. http://filestreams.com/northwood/tornado.html

Terzap's Hookbill Squadron picked up a new wingmate, call sign Tourmaline. And already there's romance causing a bit of a stir in the ranks. It might be there will be ... fledgling formations in the future. So here is my Quaker parrot Apple's lovebird wingman Little Yellow Bird with his...

This happened this morning about three miles from where I live. Sad. http://blog.oregonlive.com/breakingnews/2007/06/plane_crashes_at_state_park_ne.html

Any suggestions of where someone might go in the Northeast either for river, bay, or coastal cruising/camping for a week or so (that wouldn't cost the earth, preferably) would be appreciated. I am researching on the Internet, yes, but PoA'ers usually have a lot of great info to share. :) My...

I'm supposed to be working on web stuff and other graphics today, but my parrot Apple was sitting nearby looking so sweet that I just opened up a new file in Photoshop, grabbed my stylus, and started sketching. Hope you enjoy this little character study of my wing-friend.

I shot this a few hours ago. It is still there, although smaller. If it is a lenticular cloud, it is one of the biggest I have seen. Mt St Helens also wore a cap today, but hers has gone while Mt Hood's remained.

I've checked in now and then but have been pretty scarce. Thinking about y'all, though. I haven't been flying much (well, not since November) but got to fly a different sort of wing on Sunday. Thought y'all might enjoy some pics from a gorgeous afternoon in Portland, OR. "Mt Hood Between the...

Greetings...and I guess this is NA even though it relates to a spiffy multi-toned, green and silver hi-wing flying object. It's full bore blooming spring in Portland, Oregon (although not warm at the moment) and last Sunday my sister and I went walking downtown along the river with my parrot...

Haven't been able to find too much else about this yet. It's pretty sketchy on details but high on dramatic impact. http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/news/1174533903257500.xml&coll=7#continue

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6213644.stm It's a good thing she didn't blow up the airplane! :dunno:

http://www.avweb.com/avwebflash/12_49b/briefs/Students_Crash_In_Minnesota_193918-1.html The aircraft that crashed was the aircraft I soloed in and had many happy memories flying. (Not the one in the picture.) My thoughts are with the families and friends of these students, and with Lowell...

Thanks for inspiring me to post this, Laurie--I had started to and deleted it just ten minutes before you posted a thread about tunes! So I figured that was a sign. I'm hoping PoAers are interested in a fun virtual "tune exchange", or a "Weekend Shuffle" (Aviatin' Tunes, with Laurie's...

Check your color vision here. I got all of them right until the last one... And have a happy Halloween. :bag: terry

I've been having trouble getting my landings cleaned up lately, and today we took off in a blustery wind (took of uphill with a short field takeoff because of wind direction at S73, always interesting) to go shoot touch and goes at HIO. HIO was practically deserted and it was nice to be at a...
