When they showed it, they made note of the fact that it was an archival piece. As part of their anniversary, Sunday morning has been showing a number of Bill...
Anyone know of any gas stations selling non-ethanol-contaminated regular unleaded mogas in the area? I live in Fairfax and plane is based at Manassas. I...
Jim, There are a few folks at the USUA Club 1 in Warrenton that are always on the hunt looking for ethanol-free mogas for their ultralights, powered ...
I get it at Morgan Oil in Marshall, VA (just off of Rt 66 at Rt 17). They usually sell it for 20 cents more than your local gas station but much lower than...
When I was using mogas in my RV a few years ago I found that Faquier County gas stations (West of HEF on route 28 a few miles) sold mogas without ethanol. Tim ...
I was down at ANP this morning changing the oil in the plane when a white C-150 pulled up. A young woman (25+/-) Got out and asked if she could leave the plane...

We had a guy in a 310 go through P-40 today and was escorted in by two F-16s. He landed and was told to remain in his aircraft until secret service arrived. He...
Call 1-800-WX-BRIEF before every flight. That way, you'll "know before you go"! Or, if the briefer doesn't tell you about a TFR, or P-40, it takes the weight...
First electric airplane that you can buy. At least that is what it says. 2.5 hours of flight for $5 worth of electric. Chinese, 54 HP. Flight speed is 56 MPH....
Oh boy that must have been nerve wracking. I can understand the girl getting confused, new pilot and all. But I would expect someone flying a C-310 to have...
" I had to wonder how in our area losing a GPS and having so many landmarks coming up from St. Mary's how she got lost." Having been based at Suburban for 10+...
Coming up from St. Marys never got past ANP. She could have bee-lined it to the west coast of the bay and figured it out from there. Visability was great. All...
Maybe that was the same guy yesterday who announced that he was taking off 22 at CJR and started to pull onto the runway until I yelled that I was on short...
Chesapeake Sport Pilot is hoping to add SeaRey or two to its fleet. For those of you not familiar with the SeaRey, let's just say it is pure, made in the USA,...
For those of us who have been looking at these landmarks for years, yes, it's easy. For a newcomer, not so easy The shame of it all is that this silliness...
Helen, Are you saying that if I go up to Maine and rent a seaplane I fly with no insurance. ... -- http://aws-washdc.org/ Unix...best if used before: Tue Jan...
Depends on the carrier. I'm aware of two that will write seaplane rental insurance and several that will only write dual. sbf From: dcpilots@yahoogroups.com...
I know the folks up in Turner, Maine will rent if you have 10 SES in type. ... -- http://aws-washdc.org/ Unix...best if used before: Tue Jan 19 03:14:08 GMT...

Things have changed. After all they just opened up the crown of the Statue of Liberty this weekend. Maybe the kind soul that opened up the crown will help us...
I am saying that there are only two schools in the lower United States that have been able to get a policy that allows dual. One is in Maine, the other in...
In this particular case she was relying on GPS which went awol on her. Just shows that pilotage is a dead art. The west coast of the bay was close to her...
Insurance is available for Seaplane Rental. It is just ungodly expensive so it is very rare that you can find a seaplane for rent solo. I worked for Avemco...
If you fly without renters insurance in some states they can subrogate against you for the losses. Some companies provide for additional cost a waiver that...
I've always made sure I had a non-subrogation clause in every commercial policy I've ever had. It's relatively cheap, and covers a lot of ground in terms of...
Went down to Quarles in Newington today to find the customer service had moved. Called the number on the sign, they said to call Warrenton. Called Warrenton,...
They sent out a letter a couple of months back that they were shutting down counter service. (They are still delivering to wholesale accounts). We carry some...
