The Red Baron Flies Again - Atlantic City Weekly
Red Baron Air Tours can give you the feel of a World War I flying ace above the pines and beaches of southern New Jersey
Cruising about 500 feet above the endless flatness and green of the Pine Barrens, with a calm Atlantic Ocean ahead of us and the sun glinting off the red of our biplane’s double wing, one thing comes to mind quickly — this is prime dog fight country.
If only Snoopy or some other naïve Sopwith Camel pilot were to just peak his cockpit above the pines. He’d be ours.
We are, after all, the Red Baron. ...

from Kirby Chambliss
NEW YORK – American pilot Michael Goulian said he felt a sense of awe on Wednesday flying around the Statue of Liberty for the first time ahead of this weekend’s New York Red Bull Air Race but the New England ace said he will be able to settle down and focus on the track rather than the world-famous sights by race time.
“I grew up in Boston and have flown up and down the Hudson River countless times,” Goulian said of his first flight around the Statute of Liberty into the race track. “I went in here thinking ‘No problem, stay focused’. So I went out there this morning on a flight and I’m sitting there, circling right next to the ‘lady’. It was surreal and I had to pinch myself. I came here thinking ‘Hey, I’m gonna be all business’. But today I found myself looking out the window having to pinch myself and saying ‘Hey, you have a job to do this weekend’. It’s a special thing for me to race in New York, having grown up around here.” ...

AviationBull has been covering developments in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) issues for some time. The operational and economic benefits offered by UAVs are enormous - they can fly longer and cheaper than equivalent manned aircraft in most cases.

Though these benefits are great, there is one key fact preventing UAVs from flooding our skies: Right now, UAVs are completely incapable of operating safely in the same airspace as manned aircraft. ...
