My Approach and takeoff Videos by
A Lieberman
Awhile back I posted a program that would allow direct access to my hard
drive. I now found a website that is hosting all my videos that someone
may find interesting.
If you go to http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=mbo you will see the
listing of videos I uploaded.

backup for vacuum pump/attitude indicator failure by
Kelly
I would be interested in getting opinions about backup systems for a
vacuum pump failure and/or AI failure. I have a 172P with a single
vacuum pump system, standard instruments otherwise, and a Garmin 430.
I am most concerned about having a good backup if I lose a vacuum pump
or AI in IMC. I have...

Rolling a Non Aerobat 150 by
Tom Inglima
Spins have NEVER been in the private pilot PTS. The PTS (Practical Test
Standard) only has been in existence for around 20 years or so. The last
time spins were required for a Private Certificate was back in the early
1950's or maybe the late 1940's. Note that there is nothing that prevents...

Down to minimum today by
W9MV
It's been just about a year since I had gotten my IFR ticket, and have over 250
hours since, about 25 hours in actual.
But, my personal minimums have been 1000 ft and 3 miles.
Today (Knoxville, TN) we had perfect conditions to safely fly in the soup. (NO
ICE) I got my instructor on board and we...

BGBW Approach by
gwengler
Anyone know how *exactly* the missed approach works at BGBW:
http://www.slv.dk/Dokumenter/dscgi/ds.py/Get/File-833/AD_2_BGBW_NDB_DME_07-1.pdf
Assuming your airplane can climb with a climb gradient of 6%, where
and when can you descend to 1500 (note the table at the bottom) and
where is your MAP...

Airliner landing technique by
Matt Whiting
This isn't an IFR topic, but I figure there might be a heavy iron pilot
or two reading this. There's a thread on the FS group about landing
747/777 class airplanes. I've read that they typically kick out the
crab right before touchdown much as some lighter airplane pilots do.
Slips are out...

Tstorm avoidance by
PaulH
I have a fairly new IFR rating and am wondering how much help to
expect from ATC on Tstorm avoidance. Will they suggest re-routing or
do you have to request it based on visual, FSS, or stormscope
location?

Trust those intruments Trust those instruments by
A Lieberman
Suffice it to say, the subject line says it all.
Had to get the oil changed in my plane today, and I got a "bonus" of 300
foot ceilings and a full day off of work, so I'd figure I'd knock out a few
approaches in actual conditions and getting the engine nice and hot before
the oil change. Looking...

GPS clearance puzzle by
Roy Smith
Apparently, if you file IFR HPN - MMU, you get a clearance which starts
"CMK CMK275R SAX039R SAX" (i.e. fly outbound on the CMK 275 until you
intercept the SAX 039, then fly that inbound to SAX). In the good old
days of 2 VOR receivers, this is trivial to fly; the radios don't know
or care that...

Standby Vacuum? by
Mitty
Our club is looking at upgrading a couple of airplanes to Garmin 430s, etc.
It seems to me that standby vacuum would be a good thing to add, too.
1) Good idea? Do these systems really work?
2) Recommendations on type/brand/model?
TIA

Radar by
Hankal
Weather radar.
Which weather radar are you using for preflight?
NOAA, AOPA, local news facility?
Or any others?
I am sure there are many of them.

Identifying an intersection with options by
Ben Jackson
The HIO ILS 22 has a hold at COUVE which is defined by the intersection
of three things: the UBG 232, BTG 242 and the LOC. It's also the
UBG 232 @ 21.7 DME.
I was flying this in FS2002 in the 182RG, which only has 1 CDI on
the panel, but it does have a DME you can remote to the second

Staying current/proficient by

Hi All,
Open question to folks, what strategies do you use to stay current or
better yet, proficient?
Check ride is right around the corner. I got signed off for the ride
today. So the currency question is in the back of my mind now. Most of
my flying is x-ctry (2/month) with some local scenic...

Wet, Bumpy, and Cold by

Ha! I bet you thought that this was going to be some porn spam.
Well...perhaps not after the "Cold" bit grin.
I'd a very nice "getting feet wet" flight today. I was in the clouds for
roughly half the brief (two hour) (CDW-SWF-CDW) flight, I was in wet clouds
watching the thermostat drop, and...
