| FLORIDA to ALASKA and RETURN by GLASTAR in 17 EASY DAYS “Actually the trip took 28 days but seven days were spent fishing on the Talachulitna River in Alaska (tough duty), and four full days were lost due to weather. Tach hours on the 0-320 Lycoming totalled 66, and I burned 680 gallons of 100LL. Midwest and prairie flatlands finally gave way to mountain views as I followed the Alaska Highway and Glenn Highway to Palmer outside Anchorage. I was able to hitch a ride in a DeHavilland Beaver on floats to the Skwentna River, then traveled by flat-bottomed jet boat to the lodge and fish camp. The salmon and trout fishing were great. If anyone is considering such a trip I’d be glad to show you the videos and information from various agencies I collected before embarking on the journey.“ Bill McAuliffe “The Solo Septuagenarian” September 17, 2003 FOR MORE ON BILL'S TRIP GO TO "Solo Flight to Alaska" ON THE HOME PAGE |

| Recently featured on EAA E-Hotline was Steve Pitcarin's Autogyro that he donated to the EAA Airventure Museum at Pioneer Airport. This is the autogyro that Al restored for Steve Pitcarin at his old business in Delaware. According to Al, “This is the only example of this model in existence. It was built for the British for submarine patrol at the early stages of WW II. It had a "jump takeoff" feature that permitted vertical takeoff, and was the last step before true helicopter development.” |
| TFR AIRSPACE CHANGES FREQUENTLY, so please obtain a briefing and check notams before every flight. TFR violators will be intercepted and forced to land. (Military pilots do have shoot-down authority.) ASF has prepared a card that provides the intercept procedures. Print out the card, study the information, and carry it with you when you fly. Goto http://download.aopa.org/epilot/2003/intercept.pdf (Takes a minute or two to load) |
| AIRCRAFT INCIDENT OR OCCURRENCE PROBLEMS NASA/ASRS (Aviation Safety Reporting System) Reporting Form NASA ARC 277B (January 1994) can be printed directly from the website: http://asrs.arc.nasa.gov/forms_nf.htm (Takes a minute or two to load) This form is for reporting aircraft incident or occurrence problems – not for aircraft accidents or criminal activites. Good idea to print and carry with you. |
