Be assured: painful though it is to lose an airfield, there are also lots of good things happening.Plu…

Existing holders carry on though but with one big change t…
We had so much material from this year’s EAA AirVenture Oshkosh (OK, ‘Oshkosh’ for short) that we decided to cover the left-out bits in the show. There’s some really good stuff here, honest:- ICON A5 + Safety Sense- Tecnam Rivale- Vashon Ranger Grand Teton- Jabiru Twin - Cirrus TRAC10 - Pipistrel V…
EAA Airventure Oshkosh starts next week and there’s lots to see. The FLYER works through the highlights that we know about: aircraft launches, product updates, new propulsion units - combustion and electric - visiting aircraft and much more! Plus there’s ton of news:Mandatory electronic conspicuity…
