The pits of the Indianapolis 500 can't hold a candle to the fantastic job the

maintenance department did with a new engine for N5404K. Early in the day notice was given for a check and by early afternoon this previously sick C-172 was purring like a cat. Well done, mechanics! Now can you do something about the weather?

AeroCom II-Standard $229.95

Attention All You Techies: We are now on line to administer all the Microsoft, Novell, and Sybase certification tests. IBM is coming soon. So take it in the environment of the airport where many of you like to be. It has to be better at the airport.
