108 SURVIVE BALI CRASH All 108 people aboard a Lion Air
Boeing 737-800 survived after the aircraft reportedly missed a runway
Saturday at Denpasar Airport in Bali and ended up in the rocky shallows
of the ocean at the end of the runway. Details are scarce but early news
reports are adamant that it was not an overrun. They say the airplane
never touched the runway and "landed" in the sea. Photos show passengers
able to walk off the wings into waiting rescue boats while rescue
personnel secure the aircraft with lines. It was raining at the time of
the accident but the weather was described as good by officials.

CUSTOM
FLIGHT SIM FROM PILOT MALL You can custom retrofit an
aircraft instrument panel so why not do the same with a table-top flight
simulator? That's the idea behind the new Flight Training Panel Advanced
Cockpit from PilotMall.com. Using a clean-sheet, 14-gauge steel
instrument panel that accommodates the Saitek flight simulator flight
instruments, avionics and hand controls, the training panel allows you
to add Saitek components by simply removing the pre-configured
instrument slotsjust as a shop builds a custom panel.
