Ho, ho, ho, let’s go
As you and your family prowl the malls and shopping centers of America, I encourage you to take note of the almost complete absence of aviation offerings in the stores you frequent. Nary a flight bag or an E6B can be found. Scarves and iPads, sure, they’re around every corner. But those aren’t exclusively aviation-oriented products. In fact, far more non-pilots than pilots make use of them. (generalaviationnews.com) Más...

A crown jewel in Northeast AR is KARG at Walnut Ridge. Of all the times passing through or flying over, I never rally knew anything that nice was out there, until it was pointed out to me by a friend. Signs just point to AIRPORT off the highway, just another waypoint on the chart and nothing else about the 3 runways, people friendly, and a world class restaurant in a 737 fuselage. Plenty of GA activity as well as a salvager tearing down old big iron. Take some time around the country and stop/smell the roses.
I will definitely go there. Didn't know about it.
Well, holler at me when you do and if I'm able, I might try and meet you over there. It's about 150 miles from me by the road but that ain't no big deal.
There is neat stuff to buy at the "Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum" with the profits reinvested to restoring their aircraft. I encourage those on the blog to look at their website: www.warplane.com. The gift shop has models, clothing, bags and stuff for kids. The gift staff are most helpful and prompt.
