• Movie Pilot Corkey Fornof and 'the Ferrari of Airplanes'

    Updated: 2012-03-31 15:00:00
    If you've never seen Corkey Fornof fly — well, you probably have, whether you realized it or not. He's worked as a stunt pilot in more productions than we (and maybe even he) can keep track of. AVweb's Glenn Pew caught up with Fornof during a rare moment of downtime at Sun 'n Fun and asked for the scoop on the drool-worthy Fury he flies for Lopresti Speed Merchants.Got Comments?

  • SUN 'n FUN 2012 - Day 2

    Updated: 2012-03-30 15:00:00
    It's Day Two of SUN 'n FUN 2012. I'm David Allen, and I'm about to take you into the cockpit ... of Other People's Airplanes. Today I just take you out near the show line and talk a little bit about what's happening at SUN 'n FUN Radio. I really do spend a lot of time there helping to get the content prepared for the audience. I also talk a lot about volunteering at SUN 'n FUN, and how that can enrich your over experience. If you have never volunteered at an event like this, you really should consider it. It is one of the most amazing ways to get plugged in.Got Comments?

  • Van's Aircraft Original RV-1

    Updated: 2012-03-28 15:00:00
    Dick VanGrunsven is responsible for the most populous homebuilt airplane of all, the RV-3. Five years ago, Van's Aircraft enthusiast Paul Dye found the RV-3's forerunner — a heavily modified Stits Playboy that became VanGrunsven's prototype — and embarked on a restoration project. The rejuvenated "RV-1" is currently on tour with Dye and will find a permanent home at the EAA Museum in Oshkosh at this summer's AirVenture fly-in. We spoke with Dye and got a close look at RV-1 at Sun 'n Fun in Lakeland, Florida.Got Comments?
