Chateaux de la Loire

On July 31st, we went for a great Chateau de la Loire tour, with my father and JCF, our kind and competent instructor. We flew IPSA's faithful F-GSRN.

These castles offer breathtaking views when seen from the sky. Judge by yourself.

New A380 pictures

New cool picture of the A380 pre-production model. It is due to be used in trials next year




Look how big its winglets are going to be. Amazing.

I said hold short!

"Hold short" is the Air Traffic Control instruction to pilots that mean: stay on the holding point before the runway (and do NOT enter on the runway)

Pilots will appreciate...

A plane lands on a small road in Poland

I love these stories of planes landing safely on roads. It makes me feel that all that emergency landing training is really useful.

This plane is a Zlin 42. Nobody was injured.
