The UltraFlight Radio Show airs live on Tuesday mornings right here on
the web at http://www.ultraflightradio.com at 10:00AM Eastern Standard
Time and 7:00AM Pacific Time. But you don't have to hear it live to
hear it! You can also hear this show (and previous shows) at the show
archive. We make it convenient for you!

We've got some great folks lined up this week for your listening
pleasure, including:

> Mary Jones, EAA
Mary Jones from the Experimental Aircraft Association is live at Kitty
Hawk for the 100th Aniversary of Powered Flight. She gives us a report
on the festivities happening and planned for the birthday of flight.

> Lowell Farrand, First Soft Wing Test Pilot
Lowell Farrand did something years ago that introduced the world to a
whole different type of powered flight. He is the first man to ever fly
a powered parachute. Listen to the adventures of a modern day aviation
pioneer.

> Tom Olenik, Olenik Aviation
Powered flight means engines. Tom Olenik gives us a retrospective on
how engines have improved over the years. When the show is live, Tom
Olenik is ready to answer your four stroke and two stroke ultralight
aircraft engine questions. Call them in at (888) 514-2100.

> Jim Sweeney, NAPPF President and USUA Board Member
The world has changed a lot in 100 years. 100 years ago there was only
one powered aircraft in the sky, and it didn't stay in the sky very
long. Today we have all types of powered aircraft in the sky with all
types of capabilities. Jim reflects on the changes that have become
necessary because of the increased number of aircraft flying .

If you have any questions you want to ask the guests or you have any
of your own comments about a topic, please call the show toll free when
we're live at (888) 514-2100. If you have a show idea or know someone
that could be a guest on the show (that could be you!) contact me at
<roy@easyflight.com>.

Hope you get a chance to listen in!
