I wish one of the localhost-to-web projects like showoff.io or localtunnel would allow wildcard hostnames like this.

It's unlikely to be a jet for such short distances. From their website it looks like the Pilatus PC-12 (single engine turboprop). Those burn around 65 gallons per hour @ ~$5.50/gal for Jet-A and cruise at somewhere north of 300mph.

Looks nice, although there's nothing compelling enough to switch from my current (Billings). If you're looking for feedback, you should allow invoices to be emailed from within the app. This workflow would drive me mad: download pdf ->

This wasn't a blanket approval for pilots to throw out all dead trees. The FAA actually only gave approval to one charter company (Executive Jet Management) to use the iPad in conjunction with their extensive operations manual. Right now al

There's a requisite level of precision that I think programmers can feel comfortable with. There are also few things that are more refreshing after you've been sitting in front of a computer all day than flying to the coast, popping open th

Try a discovery flight. It's a cheap, no-commitment way to see what flying small planes is like. After you're back on the ground you'll probably find yourself bumping up the priority of flying lessons on your todo.

The envelope that ballistic parachutes provide a life-saving emergency resolution vs a well executed power-off glide is pretty narrow. The studies show that far too often it is abused by providing a false sense of security, encouraging pilo
