No jump today, maybe tomorrow from Rodney's Aviation Ramblings by noreply@blogger.com (Rodney)
I think that the title kinda summarises things quite well. It's far far far too windy to contemplate a jump today, so it has been put off until tomorrow [the weather is supposed to improve tomorrow]. In the meantime, here's a link to an interesting page/video sent by a good friend up at North Shore Aero Club [hello Mother Goose!], showing a simulation of 24 hours of world-wide commercial air traffic. While I obviously can't vouch for accuracy, it's still a very interesting view of things. Click here to view:

Hooters Air from Flight Image of the Day by Paul Gladman
Aside from its unorthodox neighborhood chain-restaurant tie-in, Hooters Air sought to differentiate itself from other carriers with a distinctive style of in-flight service. The carrier was marketed towards golfers in an effort to bring casual and tournament players to Myrtle Beach's 100+ championship golf courses. Two "Hooters Girls," dressed in their restaurant uniforms, were on each flight assisting the (traditionally attired) in-flight crews with hospitality duties. The airline ceased operations in 2006.

The Birth of Spooky from Air & Space Magazine

Up and away with Konrad
One look at the controls in the cockpit -- air speed indicator, artificial horizon, altimeter, direction gyro and turn coordinator (among many, many other bells and whistles) -- was more than enough to shake me from my "Top Gun" daydreams. This was apparently a basic, bread-and-butter plane, according to my guide for the day, Chief Flight Instructor Pat Gaston of Montgomery Aviation in Zionsville. The ride would be gentle, he said, not turbo-charged. The plane would be a docile beast -- forgiving and user-friendly. Like a Chevy. But it wasn't a Chevy, of course.
