The world's largest general aviation show in Oshkosh, MN, wraps up this week. Here's a best in show roundup from Popular Mechanics. I liked the Cirrus single-engined personal jet, but John Travolta's antique 707 is pretty cool too.

Looking oddly like space alien headquarters or deep-freeze pods for spacemen, these new Delta seats look like they will give flyers a bit of privacy, comfort and a better shot at some sleep during those monotonous overnight flights.

They look like a really interesting design, trying to use some of the unused space defined by the airplane's contours to give a bit more room.

Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until 2010 to give them a try.

And no more $12,900 fares (see below for that story).

This is a trailer for a longer documentary, but it's fairly long and gives a beautiful overview of the event.

Plenty of great still pictures too.
