Trike Videos of the Day - Twofer Friday ;)

From Florida to China!
First from Beijing we have confirmation of Trikes folks!!


Second, from my friend Alex Gore whose videos and website at WindsAndWings.com are phenomenal. I invited Alex to our new social site, but for some reason he said he was not interested in the "social thingy".... wtf? ;)

Anyway, Alex's videos are too good to pass up. Rather than lift them from his site, I'm providing the video embed to his YouTube site which I believe he created himself. Fair is fair. Maybe if you guys hassle him enough he will come on over and join us??

Trike Website of the Day - Trike Expeditions

Although I've mentioned Mike and Olivier's adventures before in my reviews of their outstanding movies, they also have a website filled with further details of their travels. Lots of maps, stories, information and photos. Top Notch all the way...

Nothing More to Say...

Aviation Humor and Cliche's

A ton of wisdom in a very small space. Here's one from the site:

The propeller is just a
big fan in the front of the plane to keep the pilot cool. Want proof? Make it
stop; then watch the pilot break out into a sweat.

Website of the day - Canadian Style!

Trike Flying in Cambodia..Is this Eddie Smith?

Not entirely sure, but found this on MegaUpload and it looks a lot like footage sent to me about three years ago by Eddie Smith from his wonderful Cambodia trip. I think he's now living over there full time. Anyone know?

Simply Stunning - One Six Right

If you missed the premier at Oshkosh 2006, you still can get the One Six Right DVD online or just watch the trailers. An incredible piece of moviemaking by Brian Terwilliger. The DC3 Landing sequence (shot from a helicopter) is hypnotic. A must-see for any aviation enthusiast.
