Celebrating the fun of flying!
Every pilot likes to share his experiences and show how much fun it
is to fly. I am no different. So I decided to dedicate this page to the
single engine airplanes I am flying.>
Have fun!
Listen in to ATC!

See approaches to and departures from various airports as the pilot sees it!
These video clips were shot from the passenger seat of several Cessna 172s while the pilot (me) was flying.
See approaches to
- Carlsbad, CA (CRQ)
- Palm Springs, CA (PSP)
- Schönefeld, Germany (SXF)
I also added some departures to my video collection:
- Carlsbad, CA (CRQ)
- Palm Springs, CA (PSP)
These video clips are best viewed using a high speed connection to the internet, e.g. a Cable modem or DSL connection.

- Friends of Meigs Field
Meigs Field in Chicago (the "greatest little airport on the planet") is probably the best-known airport in the world, since it is the home airport of Microsoft's Flight Simulator.
Newsflash: disregarding all agreements, Chicago mayor Daley has started demolishing Meigs Field. For details, see the Friends of Meigs Field website. - SoCal Approach, A Web Resource for Aviation Enthusiasts
- What can happen if you fly into IMC. Something to contemplate, especially for VFR-only pilots
- FAA Order 7110.65L, Paragraph 5-5-3, regarding separation for wake turbulence for aircraft operating behind B757's, was partly motivated by an accident in the approach path to SNA, which killed the owner of the In-N-Out Hamburger Chain. The NTSB has the synopsis and the detailed narrative with voice recorder excerpts online.
