Gear Up LandingTuesday, October 4th, 2011 This is a gear up landing caught on video from inside the aircraft. The aircraft is a single engine Cessna 172RG. The beeping horn that you hear in the video is a warning to the pilots that the aircraft is in the landing configuration and the gear is NOT down and locked. These two pilots are having a wonderful social conversation instead of doing the pre-landing checklist. The ending is a good look and sound of what a gear-up landing is like. It is amazing that the two pilots were able to ignore the warning horn and continue with the landing. The fact that someone was in the back seat with video and audio recording this magnificent performance of cockpit stupidity makes this a rare video indeed.

Lee Roy Hartung CollectionTuesday, September 27th, 2011 On page 5 of the September/October 2011 issue of Antique Automobile (AACA publication) there is mention of the Lee Roy Hartung collection that is being auctioned off this fall. The short advertisement by Auctions America just mentioned a few of the vehicles that will be offered such as a rare BMW Veritas Convertible, numerous Model T and Model A Fords, an all original 1911 Pope, a 1912 Sears twin, and a 1913 Flying Merkel Twin. Curious and wanting to see/read more about the collection I did some internet research. Here are the highlights of my search.

It is a refurbished a vintage 1965 Boeing 727 airframe, which in its prior life shuttled globetrotters on South Africa Air and Avianca Airlines (Colombia).
