Airshow Returns to Historic Courtland Airfield Video from Alabama Aviator - Aviation News
Courtland AL- Not since 1993 did Courtland have an airshow but on June 13, 2009 that all changed in a spectacular way. With precision planning, timing and execution, a full day of outstanding airshow performances, a giant car show, and the inaugural Alabama Sport Air Racing League event with a new Speed Dash competition all came off without a hitch. Not. Actually, the day started with early morning thunderstorms and a heavy cloak of concern. For an instant, it seemed the only spectators might be the participants. Not a moment too soon, the sky broke, sun came out and fans began to line up, it was show time and it was unbelievable. ...

One Six Right: Weeping on a Saturday Morning from Arizona Keough by Ryan Keough
One Six Right - Terwilliger Productions - http://www.onesixright.com It only took me four years to actually do it, but I finally watched the acclaimed aviation documentary One Six Right this morning after buying the last copy of it at the local pilot shop at Mesa Gateway Airport last weekend. It had been on my Amazon list for a few years, but my frugality kept me from actually making the buy. In the end, it was the feeling of goodwill I mustered up to make, what most probably was, one of the only sales that the kind, old gentleman at the pilots shop made last Saturday.
Buy the film at Amazon.com by clicking on this link: One Six Right The Romance of Flying.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the film, One Six Right is something of a documentary of Van Nuys Airport – the business general aviation airport in the United States and one of the most historic airfields still in the Los Angeles area. It was created in 2005 by filmmaker Brian Terwilliger.
As Lil was using my office and the sole scanner in our household for the day in preparation for another large eBay sale today, I positioned myself in the living room with laptop and TV at the ready. Instead of watching the usual schlock of Doctor Who, Top Gear, or even (God forbid) one of those Worlds Wildest Police Videos shows in the background while I worked, I decided to take advantage of Lil's absence and pop in the DVD of One Six Right. ...

Solar Impulse from Wright Squawks by Roger Chua [video]
An aircraft was unveiled Friday in Switzerland that aims to take off with one pilot aboard and fly day and night propelled only by solar energy, flying around the world without expending any fuel or expelling any pollution.

The craft measures 61 meters in span and will carry aloft about 3300 lbs of aircraft and 12,000 photovoltaic cells ...

At a central tower structure, Dago and Miss America are locked in battle. At -least two other pylons have yet to be finished, with one looking like it could include two ..
