Is the worst of the recession over... at least as far as the
aviation world is concerned? Hard to say... and though GAMA
pronounced that 2011 was to be the turn-around year, we were sadly
disappointed. Hopefully, though, the current doldrums may be the
worst of it...
Watching the trends in 2012, especially with trouble afoot for
so much of GA, is going to be interesting. Hey -- remember that
F-16 that went off the runway at Oshkosh this year... we now know
what happened and fog INSIDE the cockpit is being named the culprit
in the accident that hurt no one but one pilot's pride. And we're
pleased to note that prep for Reno 2012 continues as the
organization continues to research its practices and procedures in
the wake of last year's tragedy... we have great faith in Mike
Houghton's folks, so we feel good about their chances. All this and
SO MUCH MORE in this week's edition of AIRBORNE!
As always, PLEASE keep sending us your feedback and ideas... you
have no idea how important that is to us as we evolve the Airborne
mission. As we listen to your critiques, we're getting a far better
idea as to how to tweak and fine-tune future Airborne programming
to fit your needs. We think you're going to like what we have in
mind for the future.
