Day 1: American Barnstormers Tour from General Aviation News by Janice Wood - The American Barnstormers Tour, a nostalgic salute to the barnstormers who ventured across America during the 1920s seeking fame and fortune in their biplanes, has made its first stop on a seven-city tour, with 20 restored vintage aircraft from the 1920s and 1930s landing at Mason City Airport (MCW) in Iowa. Sarah Wilson, who is participating in the tour in her Stearman, is filing reports on the action exclusively for General Aviation News. Here's her first blog: Wind. Each tour has one element that defines it before we arrive and I think for the 2010 Barnstormers Tour it might be wind. On the 2008 tour it was rain. The first stop that year was Iowa City and it had flooded so badly that we had to redirect 18 planes coming from all corners of the country to Ames, Iowa, three days early.

Blue Skies and a Little Extra Altitude from armygoldenknights's | Luckily, there is air conditioning in the Golden Knights training facility at Laurinburg-Maxton airport in Laurinburg, NC. The temperatures got up to the mid-nineties in the early afternoon, but not even Mother Nature could dampen the motivation and focus of Black Team training day. The Team completed a total of five jumps: two from 3500 feet, two from 12,500 feet, and one from 14,000 feet (the extra altitude was a little treat from the pilots for the last jump of the day)…
