Cessna Taildragger review, all models
BD RADIO SHOW: PODCAST
A new episode every two weeks
Budd's blog: Thinking Out Loud

We just put up a long piece (Cessna Taildraggers) that gives thumbnail reviews of all the various Cessna taildraggers. They aren't in detail, but give an overview of the airplanes in one document.

Get on our e-newsletter mailing list We'll be letting AirBummers know what's new. If you have a favorite airplane and don't see it here, contact us and it'll go on the to-do list.

Loading Note
Each pirep has a number of pictures, so they take a while to load. The text loads almost immediately, so you can be reading while the pictures load.

PEANUT PIREPS
(betcha can't read just one)

This is a separate section of Airbum.com that reproduces the short little "sidebar" pireps and aircraft profiles I've been doing for Model Airplane News for years. In 500 words, or so, I rip through the high points of the airplane trying to give a feeling for its personality and use. You can read through one of these in a minute or two. Great for killing time while you're on hold:
