Aviation History
Aviation History
The Business of Aviation: History of Flight - For hundreds of years, humans have watched birds and wanted to fly. Early attempts involved making wings out of wood and feathers and attaching the wings to a person's arms to try to fly. Unfortunately, the results were usually disastrous. This is because human physiology is not the same as that of birds, and humans don't have the same strength.

Abandoned & Little-Known Airfields - For the airports that no longer show on any charts or maps.  They may even have been erased from the surface of the earth.  Definitely a fun site to visit and learn something new!

The Cars, Tanks and Airplanes of WWII - World War II, a global conflict that lasted from 1939-45, was among the most far-reaching conflicts in history. The war spanned six continents, involved more than 30 countries, and introduced new weapons and machinery. Nations pushed their best scientific minds to their limits designing and manufacturing equipment for troop and supply transport. The United States alone raised hundreds of millions of dollars through bond campaigns to fund the war effort. To read more about this, please visit the link for this excellent read!

A Complete History Of The Airplane - Aviation has been with us for well over one hundred years, during which the industry has helped us discover new scientific phenomena, win world wars, and allowed us to travel the globe with ease. Today we’ve gone over this long history so you can understand how airplanes have developed over the last century. 

A History of Flight Attendants and Airline Formal Fashions - Flight attendants have been an integral part of commercial flight since the first airlines were founded. Initially, they were called couriers, and this job was typically only given to men. Couriers were often the sons of the businessmen who financed the commercial airlines.

Historical Research and Development of Aviation - For many years, humans have watched birds fly across the sky and wanted to experience the same. The result has been centuries of innovation, from designing wings made from feathers and wood and attaching them to a person’s arms to creating advanced aircraft that could cross oceans or even leave Earth’s atmosphere. Human flight began with the invention of gliders and kites, but perhaps the most famous names in aviation are Orville and Wilbur Wright, the brothers who built and flew the first motorized airplane. Still, research and development in the field of aviation isn’t just about history: Today, people are still pushing the boundaries of what we can do in the air.

Ohio Natives: The Wright Brothers and Aviation - The world of transportation has changed a lot in the past 100 years. Back then, people mostly traveled by train or ship, but today, we have a lot of options, from faster trains to cars that can take us anywhere we want to go. But one of the biggest changes in transportation has been the evolution of the aviation industry. This industry can be traced back to two brothers from Ohio: Orville and Wilbur Wright.

Fly n' Bike
A number of years ago I saw a picture of a pilot who landed a few miles from the Grand Canyon and biked to the north rim. That inspired me to get a foldable bicycle and start my own adventures of flying and biking. After a lot of searching, I selected a 26" Montague that doubles as a great bike for daily use at home. I'm not a road biker, otherwise any airport would do. So, this page is a place to share some interesting airports that provide reasonable access to bike friendly trail systems or cities. A lot of airports are miles of country road from towns or trails. I've tried to find those with less than a mile or so of 2-lane road to deal with. Some airports offer courtesy cars that you might use for a short ride on a nearby trail. I've added highlights of what you can find on your trip at each airport. I've biked the airports with the and I expect you'll have fun with these too. If you're interested in finding bike trails, be sure to check the Bicycling layer in Google Maps. I hope my adventures encourage you to get out to fly and bike.

Today marks a true milestone in Colorado aviation safety, as our new system of Aviation Weather Cameras on our network of 13 Mountain Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS) sites is NOW LIVE! Now, in addition to receiving accurate and certified aviation weather information, pilots have the ability to visually observe weather conditions high in the Colorado Rockies before they depart the airport.

This innovative effort was made possible through a partnership developed between the Colorado Division of Aeronautics and the FAA’s Alaska Weather Camera Program. The 13 new camera sites now operational in Colorado are the first in the U.S. outside of Alaska to be incorporated into the FAA weather camera network.

This innovative project, marks the third such collaboration between us and FAA, where the Division has funded FAA-completed safety improvements on our behalf. Previous reimbursable agreements with FAA include the development of Colorado's Wide Area Multi-Lateration System, and ongoing Remote Tower Project at the Northern Colorado Regional Airport (FNL).

Our cameras can be viewed on the FAA's weather camera website!  https://lnkd.in/gUHPRWv
