Not sure how many people have seen this, but CAP was featured on CNN:

If you pull the /CNN.vsml off the end of that link, you get a nice little repository of CAP videos that could be pretty useful.

Was that a Cessna Caravan they were using there? Definitely didn't look like the 172's I've been up in. And do they cruise at 10,000 feet? I'm used to hanging out at a couple thousand.

And thanks for the link. I like to keep these types of videos.

Perhaps. I'm not very familiar with stuff beyond the 172 and 182.

[edit:]Make that "it was" :P

Yeah, the GA-8 is pretty sweet. I was at NBB touring around with Col Allenback when he first saw the first Airvan CAP got (it was delivered straight to Oshkosh to go on Display in '03). Very roomy.
