    1974 Piper Warrior

    It's time to fill up the panel on the RV9A, so the Warrior needs to go. 5700 TTSN 174 SMOH, New Sensenich Prop, Garmin GNC300 GPS/Com Paint and interior are decent, probably 6 out of 10, (Nick has seen it) advertised at $40,000. Make me an offer! PM me for more info

    A little online stress relief

    I ran across this little website. If you move the mouse left and right you can bank and it gives the impression of flying low over the terrain. Kinda cool. http://www.electricoyster.com/electric3d/index.html

    Organ Mountains on Fire

    We had a fire in the Organ mountains over the weekend. It never really threatened any houses, although they were pretty worried about it at one point. It finally burned over the top and into the White Sands Missle Range before they got it under control. I guess when it hit the missle base they...

    Blocking Internet services

    Is there anyway to set up my work network to only allow internet access to a couple of work related sites and block the rest? I have a firewall router, so far I can only figure out how to cut off access completely. Need some technical guidance.
