EMC Aviators' Club
The EMC Aviators Club has
been promoted by Andy Marvin and Antonio Orlandi
To be part of the Club one should be involved in EMC, have a pilot's license (power or gliding) and a
wish to share your adventures and pictures with others.
EMC refers to the science of Electromagnetic Compatibility which is the design of electronic systems so that they will not cause electromagnetic interference in other electronic systems and will not be susceptible to interference caused by these other systems
You can use the club web site to post pictures or links to
your own sites.
You can arrange to share flights with other EMC people when
travelling to meetings or conferences.
We will arrange informal meetings at the main EMC
conferences, probably over lunch or an evening beer or wine.
There is no membership fee. Simply send your profile details
and any pictures (please use standard format and small dimensions) to Antonio
at antonio.orlandi@univaq.it

John Howard John and two friends were killed whilst flying his Beechcraft Bonanza over Colorado on the 4th August 2010. The probable
cause report of the incident is available. |
David A. Larrabee Professor in the Physics Department, East Stroudsburg University, Pennsylvania, USA. Private Pilot Single Engine Land and Glider but currently inactive. Learned to fly gliders in graduate school at Grund Field outside of Ithaca NY (Cornell) (see picture). When I left school I flew out of Somerset Airport with Aero club Albatross and eventually with the club at located at Princeton University’s airport. I continued to fly until I bought a house (more useful but a lot less fun). I also transitioned to power and bought a 1946 Aeronca Champ with a partner. I do want to get back into soaring (when I have lost some weight…) and I wouldn’t mind getting another taildragger…. Contacts: musiclab@ptd.net

Antonio and his younger daughther Cecilia during her first
fly on I-AMAB, a C150. We are at 2000 ft on LIRU ATZ.
Winter waves arrived over Yorkshire. Picture taken by Andy
in a DG505 with 20m wings at 10400 feet.
Ghery, Antonio (front seats), Andy and Richard (back seats)

EUROPE 2012.

Richard, Andy and Ghery.
Top Gun Andy ready for a ride in a RAF Tucano: York to Scotland at low level (250 ft and down to
100ft over the hill crests - 240kts) and 5G in aerobatics on the way home.
Ninety minutes flight time.

Squadron.
Andy and Antonio at Terni airfield, ready to take off on I-IAHA (Socata TB9) heading LIRU (Rome Urbe).
The
RAF Shorts Turcano training aircraft had a
complete engine failure and dropped in. It managed to avoid people and
gliders on
the runway but overshot the runway end as it arrived rather hard and burst both
main wheel tyres thus reducing its braking
efficiency. No
injuries and it will be flown out.
Both instructor and pupil were given out standard certificate for
completing a trial glider flight at Andy's glider club.
David L. took this picture of Sommerset Airport (NJ) in the way back from Oshkosh on his 1946 Aeronca Champ.
