-Cheap advertising.
-Maybe they could offer this service against a small charge. (I would pay some bucks for it...).
With internet on board (connexion) and cameras installed in the aircrafts nose or tail it should be no major problem to send these live-pictures to a server on the ground, that could be streaming them to the internet. Coupled with live-atc this would be a great entertainment. Does anyone know whethe...

Hi,
I wonder, how small single-engined airplanes (Cessna 172 for example) are delivered from the USA to Europe.
Do they have to be disassembled and moved by ship? Or is there any way to fly them across the Atlantic (on own power or inside a cargo-plane)?
Thanks

Jump to postHello, I've just watched an aviation video, which deals about the A320. One scene shows the thrust levers from behind and a small red switch can be seen on the lower back of the left lever. I think normally it is covered by a black cap and it seems, that there are two of these switches (one on each ...
Jump to postHi all, I've just read an article about handling the 737 (NG) on the ground. It was said, that the gear pins (nose and main gear) have to be installed everytime the aircraft is parked, pushed or towed to prevent the gear from collapsing when hydraulic-press is removed. Is that right? I know, that it...
Jump to postHi all,
I've just watched a video where a A320 captain completes the Pre-Take-Off checklist and says "Packs on / bumps off" while looking at the overhead panel.
What does "bumps off" mean? I guess it must be something in conjuction with pressurization.
Thanks

Hi,
can anyone tell me what "leaning" means, when speaking of General Aviation. I think it is something in conjunction with fuel or carburetor.

Hi all, Some questions. Take a 737 as an example: -As far as I know this aircraft doesn't need to be pushed away from a gate. It can move backwards on its own. HOW? (reverse thrust, elect. powered?) -How does the typical steering work on the ground (by differential braking, or by turning the nosegea...
