Fun Place to Fly Update - BB Sport Aviation, Cambridge, MD
"Stopped in one day to look at Teddy's/BB Sport Aviations aircraft. After looking at three different models my wife said she was hungry and wanted to eat. Teddy offered to drive us to a local restaurant which ended up having the best Maryland Crabcakes I ever tasted. Teddy even stopped by a gas station on the way back to the airport so I could purchase some water for the flight home. Can't say enough about what a gracious host Teddy was, and how helpful everybody at the hanger was to my wife and I." - Submitted by REV. Got Comments? - Got Photos?

Fighter planes of WWII hit faster speeds thanks to lead additives in their fuel and leaded "avgas" still remains the fuel of choice for top-selling piston aircraft. Automotive use of this toxic, high-octane blend was banned in the U.S. in 1996 after first being restricted in 1973, and now a lawsuit is forcing the EPA to end airplane use as well.

Ultralight Helmet with removable Aviation Headset
Acousticom Corporation introduced their Aero Flyte Ultralight Helmet 2 years ago at AirVenture 2008. The overwhelming success of the helmet is attributed to its design. The ability to remove the headset from the helmet and use it in your general aviation aircraft gives it more purpose then just a helmet for your Ultralight.

Video: Rudy Heeman's Flying Hovercraft
For Thursday, Mar 4, 2010
