Interviews, jobs & sponsorship Do ya feel lucky, Punk? Well do ya? If so, here's the place to swap the hot gen on who's sponsoring or employing, their selection criteria, and where those oh so elusive first jobs can be spotted in the wild. Watch out for the tumbleweeds...

Real flying?
The daredevil pilots of Colombia - Risking it all - Al Jazeera English

Wasn`t sure where to post this. Helps keep my aviation fire burning watching documentaries like these.

I would love to fly one of those old war birds.

Very interesting, hats off to them.

Would they be considered "Bush Pilots"?

I love Colombia, I actually spent 6 months in Villavicencio. I've got a few friends down there flying various aircraft over the jungles. I did see a DC-3 split into 2 when a passenger's hand grenade went off. Good article
