Back in 1999, XPLANE created one of the first business blogs. We
keep adding more good content, but we have a hard time deleting anything with that much history. Some images
have been lost forever, some links no longer work, some posts are completely without copy. So, whether you want
to keep up with all things curently XPLANE or travel back far into the archives and try to piece together a
history, welcome to xBlog!
