Landings at wrong airports are unfortunately not too uncommon. But in most cases the airports are not only close together, but also of similar size. But a 737 on a 3,700 foot long runway? http://www.cnn.com/2014/01/13/travel/southwest-plane-wrong-airport/index.html?hpt=hp_t2

I was flying a helicopter in a sim the other day and thought, if I could fly, this is what I'd fly in. So I'd like to ask the question, any aircraft, if you had the skill, or the ability to fly, what would it be?

Hi All I've done a bit of looking but drawn pretty much a blank on this,wonder if anyone can help? I've decided to combine a few things into one by creating a couple of airlines using airhauler and my a2a Cessna also to help with my nav flying Now I've mythically purchased 3 new Cessna 172 a/c, 1 based in UK one based in Caribbean ,and one in the PNW my question therefore is how would they get to my bases ? Presumeably the PNW aircraft would be picked up from Independence, Kansas as this seems to be where they build their single eng props,but what about the other two places ? I'm guessing they would be sent in some sort of form kit then assembled nearer to the final…

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02/11/sp...ance.html?_r=0 As for the aviation expert, he is a total tool who doesn't like the Yankees. 200k is obviously a sponsored fare for a 787 to get JAL publicity as well. Looks to me like he got a good deal and a trip on a 787 to boot The offers on the aviation brokers dot com website (for a 6 person one way trip) start at € 154.390 ($ 210.891) for a Gulfstream V, G550: € 193.239 ($ 263.957) Global Express: € 194.929 ($ 266.265) At the end of the line there are offers for 2 big ones: Boeing Business Jet: € 373.047 ($ 509.567) and Boeing 767-200 VIP: € 872.294 ($ 1.191.520) 200k for a chartered 787. Great deal!

He runs the California Classic Propliners website (http://www.calclassic.com/) and has created too many aircraft add ons to count. He is one of the most well known aircraft designer / contributor in our hobby. It is our pleasure to award him our Member of the Month for February 2014. Congratulations Tom!

I seem to buy every addon but it's getting out of control. Recently, I've refrained from purchasing the following: Milviz 737-200 Razbam Metroliner Captain Sim L 1011 Milzviz King Air 350i (pre-order) Either addons are getting too expensive or I have way to many planes and not enough time to fly them. However, I did buy recently the Carenado B1900 and, regretfully, the BBS A330. Which of these four is a must buy and which recent addons are you saying "no" to and why?

Anyone know anything about this guy outside of this article. How will this affect any new prospects for the future of our hobby with Microsoft? His picture in the article reminds me of 'Adam Ant'.

Let's pretend you have a billionaire relative or something and they wanted to give you a home cockpit of your choice. I'm talking top of the line 180 degrees large viewing screen, exact flight deck replica (or even better, taken off a real plane). We'll leave "full motion" out of this as this will be a home cockpit. Now, you can only choose one aircraft. What would it be? I think I would go for an MD-11 cockpit.
