Re: Online "virtual ride along" Flying videos; edited or not
A little editing cant hurt, the only thing that drives me crazy is when people replace the soundtrack with terrible music. Especially when its one of 5 or so cliche 'aviation' related songs. Remember, any aircraft engine sounds better than kenny logins

Re: generating income from warbird training q&a
from what ive heard its nearly impossible to get insure in the l39 without 1000tt but I guess if you can afford the $1500 per hour in fuel you can probably pull a few strings. or just pull a dave riggs and go fly, to hell with the rules!

Re: N194SJ CJ2 fatal hits hangar on landing Santa Monica 9/2
Avweb is reporting a tire blowout caused it to veer into the hangar. im hoping there is more to it than that. it would be terrifying to think something like a blown tire could lead to this.
