    Ciao amico nostro!

    I cannot find words. I still hope, someone will send me a message, it was just a very badly implemented mental prank. Because it just cannot be true. And sadly it is true. Our friend, Alessio Romeo, you left us here even though you were too young to do so. I cannot say: rest in peace.

    "We are paid to be comfortable..."

    "We are paid to be comfortable" – one of the unspoken rules of flying. This was posted on Facebook in the afternoon, posted by my friend Zsolt Szüle, Boeing 747 pilot, captain and despite that he posted this to full scale pilots, it should be our motto as well. Very wise words from a very experienced pilot.

    Charmouth - the fun fly in Dorset

    I think this is the fun fly in England, that you must attend at least once in your life. Because this is a special one. No, it is not the fun fly itself that is special, because this is still an event where good people gather up for a weekend, but it's not an everyday experience for most of us to fly over a gorgeous valley in front of a picturesque landscape. And much more...
