Hello I failed to make it to Oshkosh this year mainly due to the fact that my copilot (daughter) was on her honeymoon. 8O :D Also, I knew It'd be very hot this year unlike the year before when it was absolutely gorgeous with high temps of mid 70s. Does anyone have a good aerial shot of all the C170s...

It has been awhile My daughter is getting married this July 22 so i'm on my own for Oshkosh as she'll be on her honeymoon Having my annual performed at the moment will be done this Friday i.e. 2 days Found the L wingtip light is burned out It is the Grimes A-7512-12 13v 26w 8019 Are these still avai...

Guess its a moot point now that I purchased the 355 ...and thanks Hilltop for advise about the radio switch. From now on, I'll leave the radio master off until the plane starts up. ...also, good idea about GPs, I won't retire my dad's Garmin 95 just yet Was going to the Atlantic, Iowa flight breakfa...

Flew to Newton, Iowa today Flying just north of Des Moines. I always call approach control To fly through their airspace. But...I could hear them But they did not respond to my call ins. When I keyed my mic It didn't sound the same. Do I need a need 2-way call button Or do I have a more serious prob...

'Skyward'

IMO, it personifies the love of flying and small airports

Sadly, it is not available on DVD

Also, I'm with Canav8

The planes, not Cruise, are the stars
