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: Old Flying Machine Company

The OFMC was formed by Ray and Mark Hanna with the intention of preserving and maintaining rare historic aircraft in airworthy condition. At the heart of the company's policy is the commitment to display the aircraft in a manner that emulates as closely and safely as possible the roles for which they were originally designed. That they succeeded in fulfilling that ambition reflects the determination and professionalism with which they set about their task.
