Well, everyone says I'm going to regret it, but I'm going to put my KR up for
sale at the Gathering this year. We have our first baby on the way and my wife
just won't fly with me any more, so I'm going to upgrade to something a bit
bigger. I'm planning on arriving Friday and if you want, you c
As a former flight attendant for 15 years, our annual emergency revalidation
instructors drilled into us to recognise the onset of mild, moderate and

There are many videos on youtube which show these symptoms in controlled

before I find something else to fix. I guess th
In Army flight school after a course in altitude physiology, we went into an
