Aero-Linx!

Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.

The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.

Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.

Aero Linx: Rare Aircraft

Since it was founded in 1991 by Roy Redman, Rare Aircraft has been dedicated to the restoration of the antique aircraft from the golden years of aviation. Their prestigious track record begins with the "Four Time Grand Champ" Stinson Reliant of 1982 (published in Sport Aviation, November 1982). Since this initial and highly-acclaimed restoration, Rare Aircraft's list of restoration accolades has continued to grow, year after year. In fact, every restoration we've shown has won a national award.
