FPNA -- Valor A-22
FPNA stands for Floatplanes and Amphibians and they're into water flying, as the name implies. However, they also build an increasingly popular landplane called the Valor.

Before the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, Americans hardly knew Ukraine, a large and diverse country with a rich aviation heritage that once employed

With Three You Get Dutch Roll, 04/05/2010
SPLOG begins: Just kidding about the dutch roll. It's a play on an old movie: With Six You Get Egg Roll , about complications that come with a blended family . *** But the "three" is legit, and refers to the three LSA training centers operated by Shawn Okun in Florida. |
