Sun 'n Fun 2010 Highlights from Aviation Social Media | DaveFlys by David | Another Sun 'n Fun Fly-In is behind us. Most of my week was spent at Sun 'n Fun Radio performing my duties as Editor-In-Chief. We really stepped things up at the radio station this year. Admittedly, we bit off more than we should have. The listeners were probably oblivious (at least I hope so), but those of us that were working behind the scenes to make it all happen were constantly busy. Too busy. It left many of us, myself included, overly stressed. In spite of that, we accomplished some pretty awesome stuff, like live internet streaming of the radio station thanks to our friends at LiveATC.net…

Gold Demonstration Team CRW Training from armygoldenknights's | Gold Demonstration Team conducts canopy relative work(CRW) at our training facility in Laurinburg, NC. In this video, Team members practice the tri-by-side. A difficult maneuver as the jumpers are linked together with straps. The jumpers start this by first docking one on top of the other, in a 3 stack. Then each jumper manuevers to be side by side. While side by side they snap into a link on each of the harnesses. These straps are used to relieve the tension on the jumpers arms as they try to navigate side by side…

FAA Kills "Taxi To" For Takeoff from ExpressJet Forum by MikeW | Effective June 30, 2010, the FAA is deleting the term "taxi to" from taxi and ground movement operations as it pertains to aircraft cleared to taxi to an assigned takeoff runway. The change requires controllers to issue explicit runway crossing clearances "for each runway (active/inactive or closed) crossing." And aircraft issued clearance to cross a runway must cross that runway before receiving clearance for a subsequent runway crossing. There is an exception: "At airports where the taxi route between runway centerlines is less than 1,000 feet apart, multiple runway crossings may be issued after receiving approval by the Terminal Services Director of Operations," according to the FAA…

Aviation Trivia of the Day by JP Santiago - In 1986, Southwest Airlines was only the 14th largest airline in the United States and had only 63 aircraft in its fleet. In fact, in terms of passengers carried, Southwest was less than one-tenth the size of United Airlines. But from the passage of the Airline Deregulation Act in 1978, Southwest had not only grown four-fold but had remained consistently profitable during the rocky early years of deregulation. But few Americans at the time had heart of Southwest Airlines as it was still for the most part operating in Texas and the adjacent states. Despite its relative obscurity, though, the business world from academia to other industries took a close look at Southwest trying to divine the secret to its success. Perhaps Robert Crandall, the iconic head of American Airlines, Southwest's main competition in the Dallas/Fort Worth market, said it best when he said "That place runs on Herb Kelleher's bullshit."
