Best looking airliner? by
Andrew Burke
I'm sure this has probably been asked before.
For me, it's the Vickers Super VC10, followed closely by the Boeing 727-200.

Why don't airlines also do charter jets? by
Scott T. Jensen
This evening, I watched a documentary on TV about the rise of private jets.
During it, they talked about the rise of charter jet companies. These being
companies from whom you can charter a private jet from a one-time use to
something along the lines of a time-share. Anyway, what struck me odd...

"Trying out" a different insturctor just to see - good idea? Badidea? by
GEG
Hi everyone,
I'm a student with about 10 flights under my belt.
I had an instructor for the first 4 that I really liked.
I departed for a while, then had a new instructor that
I also really like - but for COMPLETELY different reasons,
and I can consider him "acceptable", but not great.
I wish I...

Cessna 152 Rudder trim adjustment? by
GEG
Hi Folks,
I'm a low-time (10 hour) student pilot.
I took my first flights in my school's 152 about 2 years ago, then had
an 18-month wait for various reasons.
When I first flew the plane, I don't remember the right rudder being
such an issue (I flew 3 times 2 years ago).
Now, the right rudder...

Cockpit visit by
Icarus
Greetings to all.
I have run into a discussion whose answer is not clear. The question,
especially since 9/11, and its variant is:
Can passengers on commercial flights, during the flight, visit the
flightdeck (with captain's
permission, of course!)?
Essentially, is it the FAA or IATA that makes...

Considerations for joining flying club by
Marty Ross
I'm considering joining a flying club this week. This one's the closest
club to where I live, the members, the planes, and the online scheduling
system seem to be great, and I think I'm ready to make the commitment (e.g.,
buy a share in the fleet).
Since I've never joined a club before (have...

Honeywell KFC-225 autopilot - what could cause this failure? by
Joerg
Hi Peter,
The mpeg didn't play for me but just a few thoughts:
Since they say they couldn't reproduce it on the ground, could this be a
noise issue? Possible sources would be the radio, a transponder
transmission, engine ignition, maybe a motor driven trim, fuel equalizer
pump if you have one....
