I received my private last September, and have rented a Cessna 172 from the same place I completed my training at ever since. Recently, I've been looking for a new place to rent because the 172's at my current FBO are old and always down because something broke yet again. I went to a different...

Every year, since his feet could reach the pegs, my son and I have done a motorcycle camping trip together. This year, at age 13, his feet can comfortably reach the rudder pedals -- so now we're talking about doing a flying/camping trip, too. Can anyone suggest a fly-in campground within, say 500...

Leaving OAK I called ground and asked for flight following to 7S3 (which I gave by name and spelled phonetically). Later, while I'm taxiing they come back with "where is that" and I couldn't imagine how I could help them if the identifier didn't, so I came up with "near McMinnville", which is both...

As a relatively newly-certificated pilot (two years ago), I am curious about the upcoming emergence of the seventeen-year cicada in the northeast and midwest US later this May. Are there any hazards to aircraft associated with these insects, either on the ground or in the air? -- Peter

The R in a circle symbol next to an airport on Sectionals nindicates that this airport has Airport Surveillance Radar. But what does this really indicate to the VFR pilot? At Reading, Pennsylvania (KRDG) there is such a symbol. This (Class D Airspace) airport has its own Approach control (shared...

I have a question that has been buggin' me for a while. Why are some VOR names in bold and underlined? For instance, the NABB vor (north of Louisville KY) and the Dayton vor are in bold and the name is underlined where as others are not. I've checked the NOAA Aeronautical chart users guide and...
