Subject: Trying again for the T-37 video


Some have said the video link for the T-37 did not come in so trying again. David W. SkjervenI remember how much fun it was to spin in the Tweet and showing my instructor one of the ways my Dad had taught me on how to enter a spin. He called it an "Over the Top Spin" where you were in a turn and as it stalled, you kicked top rudder and the airplane would flip over to enter the spin. What a fun ride that was!!! Here is some great T-37 video to enjoy. DWS

Comments - FINAL B727 FLIGHT TO ALASKA - Retired Western / Delta Airlines Captain Tim Powell was the pilot of a FedEx B727-200 that was donated by FedEx to the University of Alaska Maintenance Training School at Anchorage.

The aircraft was ferried from Portland to Anchorage Intl. on Feb. 24th - then after a day of surveying the runway at Merrill Field , the 727 was flown into the small general aviation airport in Downtown Anchorage ( runway 4000' x 100' ). All of you former 727 pilots will enjoy the videos that are currently on Utube. " Utube FedEx B727 at Merrill Field "
