Ok, I'm not one to go gaga over "celebrities." Just the opposite lately as we've been seeing too much inappropriate behavior from the current flock of wild-child celebs...

That is why it is so refreshing to see an article about a celebrity that includes some really great writing about aviation. Check out this article about Angelina Jolie from Vogue's website. It describes her and "Brad's" love for Dagget field (in Barstow, CA) as well as tidbits about their flying life. Make sure you check out the slide show of images found on this page taken by famed photograperh Annie Leibovitz.

I love the comparison between Jolie's Cirrus being the family sports car to the Cessna Caravan that is described as the family mini-van. Gonna be hard-pressed find a mini-van with a 600 to 675 hp turbine engine that cruises at 184 knots.

Of course, the flip side is journalists who are obviously writing out of their asses. The ignorance and lack of fact checking just amazes me...
