Look, the NPS probably won't have the money (in real terms) to do this anyway. Obama just declared several new national monuments this week out of thin air, and these are now added to the mix that...

Wow, I am just reading this now.... it is horrible and unexpected! Torch was a wonderful friend and always gave helpful advice when passing through Fairbanks and Kotzebue - I will really miss him. ...
I recommend taking her to an Appleseed next year. They hold several in Harvard each year. Check out http://www.appleseedinfo.org/ .
I am confused at how something can be considered a "loophole" to something else that has no basis in law to begin with. What specific law established the "No Fly List", and how does it comply with...
Hi All,
FYI the National Park Service is proposing a new management plan for Serpentine in the Bering Land Bridge N.P. They have a document with 4 alternatives out for review. A couple of them...
Not even close.... many airstrips in the Alaska are one ways, shorter and surrounded by even higher mountains. Check out this sheep strip in the Wrangells... maybe 600', one-way, surrounded by...
John and the Ohio Bushplanes crew: thanks for the awesome weekend -- great flying, food and company! It was an amazing fly-in that you put on, hope to do it again next year!

I used to live in Destin, but it changed quite a bit since I left 20 years ago (now it is much more commercialized and built up with high rises, definitely not the Destin that I knew and loved). I...
NOAA has no business shutting down any airspace at all, and the FAA (which has statutory control over the nation's airspace) should NOT have rolled over so easily. What is happening with NOAA is...
The entire reason why the dollar price of gasoline is going out of sight is money printing by the Federal Reserve Corporation. The real price of gas is near its all time lows. See here:

I just flew the Hudson Corridor yesterday in my cub with Gary Green. This time there was almost no traffic, except for a few helicopters.... on a sunny summer day it is usually packed and you really...
KGZ for the scenery, terminal building and airport courtesy car, L20 for the history and cheap accomodations, 4Z5 for the cool sculpture at the FBO, and Z86 for the excitement of it all! :wink: I...
Glacier Brewhouse - need 2 day advance reservation a lot of times. Usually packed.
Club Paris - Anchorage landmark, try their blue cheese stuffed filet mignon (this place is in famous picture of...
Phil thank you and Sue for a wonderful fly-in! We wish we could have stayed longer than we did on Saturday, but probably wouldn't have made it back home in time -- we landed literally minutes before...
We are planning to be there sometime between 11 and noon... sounds like a lot of fun and looking forward to seeing you guys! Will be my cub plus my friend's Husky (Husky's are okay, right ?).... ;-)
I may make it up there tomorrow for a short while, weather is supposed to be beautiful across the north east. May also bring a 2nd plane with me...
Very, very sorry to hear this, especially after so much hard work and all the dreams in that cub! Glad you are safe though! Best of luck -- hopefully it can be salvaged and restored.
This kid sounds like a modern day Huckleberry Finn..... so much for the enterprising spirit and adventure of youth nowadays. The nanny state is bent on control and making kids totally risk-adverse...
The U.S. average price of 100LL avgas is rather quite cheap right now if priced in real money... actually about 16 cents a gallon if you use pre-1965 U.S. pocket change. It is only expensive in...
Yes, it is possible to bring handguns through Canada, but it requires a lot of red tape. If you're going to do it a lot, it makes sense to get a PAL (Canada Possession and Acquisition License) to...
Jerry, very sorry to hear about this tragic accident and the terrible loss of your friend. Please get well and best wishes to you & yours!
Gas not an issue unless flying trench route, or if you have strong headwinds going from Whitehorse to Tok with stock tanks (no longer any gas at Northway), or you fly in remote parts of Alaska where...

This is very, very sad, and shocking. :( Last summer I had the great fortune of a week down at Lake Iliamna, spending time with John & Dolly telling many of their incredible stories about days in...
