More proof of the old adage that "If it looks right, It'll fly right" Same can be said of the F-35 also. Planeflyr
Ahhh, there's nothing quite as nice as flying your J-3 on a lazy summer morning with the door open and your right leg hanging out in the breeze....
And why take something that is inherently fun and ruin it by making it a job? Ever listen to crewmembers talking in the lounge or an airport...
No, I don't think so. In fact, looking at it closer the thrust by the 2 sets of blades would cancell each other out. This is easiest to see if...
That is because it'll NEVER get off the ground! Not the least of the problems, Vegematic not withstanding, is the wing area is too small for the...
The "propeller" (fan) blades are on BACKWARDS! Looking at the "scoop" of the blades it appears that it is intended to rotate such that it would...
I'm guessing that BALONEY was the correct description here - not just for the propeller! On the subject of propeller, the blades, as previously...
Yes, it is best to get out of the airplane and tow by hand - S-L-O-W-L-Y when in tight quarters. A friend of mine just had someone taxi their...

I presume that you are talking here about a gyroscopic instrument rather than a representation of this instrument on a MFD screen. The ball part...
You are correct. Cessna does not manufacture any piston twins any longer. For about 10 years they weren't manufacturing any piston singles...
Rob, First to address the safety of twins vs. singles. There is always the battle between those who profess the safety of having the second...
Interesting. The wing (probably due to the photo angle) resembles a Stinson gull-wing, the fuselage, accentuated by the paint scheme, looks...
Although not an expert on Bonanza's, I have come away with a fairly good understanding of some of the characteristics of the marque. First of...
Fred, I encourage you to look at the series of posts under the heading of "Cranking Old Man in the discussion forum for some other perspectives...
Of course, they're BS'ing. This is only about MONEY! And it doesn't matter whether Cirrus wins or loses.... THEY (and all of us) LOSE. It will...
The families of former New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle and his flight instructor Tyler Stanger claim the crash of their Cirrus SR20 into a...
