My kids always start a cell phone conversation with this question instead of, "Hi, Mom, I'm calling to ask for a favor." Is this question a new standard like the old fashioned "Hi, how're you doin?" which is really rhetorical? I never really know what is expected for an answer. Today I...

Today is the 50 year anniversary of Martin Luther King’s riveting speech. I was not there that day, but I was living in Mississippi and working in a place where discrimination and segregation were peeling slowly away. Today, I’d like to reflect on the achievements of the past 50 years...

The C-172 has not been getting enough exercise lately. The other night, Hubby took it up for its first launch since the annual in May. The fuel tests for both wings looked normal and blue, but the one under the belly returned what looked like yellow fuel. A second sample was the same. He...

We just took a truckload of household goods from New York to Oklahoma and then returned by road. We saw a lot of tanker trucks carrying CO2. Does anyone know where it is coming from? Where is it going? What is it used for? In other words, why is CO2 being transported?

I have sent in my resignation, but I might be needed from time to time. Hubby may also be working from home for his job and they may want him to be working as a consultant. I need to set up a consulting firm so I can work for my previous employer. I contacted my lawyer a couple of months ago...

We just got our most recent bill and the tiedown fee is $15 less than previously. We were not informed that there would be a rate change. Is this happening elsewhere?

It has happened to me several times on this board. The first time it happened was when I opened my first thread. Just dipping a toe into the water, so to speak. Now it has happened again. I opened a thread about a maintenance matter. Several posts addressed the issue. Then someone said...

A few days ago a Jet Blue flight from HPN hit two geese and turned back with the windshield covered in blood. http://www.nycaviation.com/2012/04/...anding-at-westchester-airport-with-atc-audio/ When the local news reported the incident, they claimed that the most common problem with...

Hubby got a new camera -- our first ever video camera since the old camcorder from 15-20 years ago. He mounted it in the airplane and I wanted to know how to post a 3-minute clip here on PoA. Is it necessary to put it onto YouTube first. We'd rather not do that. If it is required, then we...
