?? Newsdgroup Cookie Dropper ?? by
Casey Wilson
This applies to rec.aviation.piloting because this is where I seem to
be picking up a "cookie" from time to time. My, albeit limited, knowledge is
that cookies come from websites, not newsgroups.
I have a software package called SpyBot that seeks out adware, cookies,
spyware and that sort of stuff....

Running runup? by
G. Burkhart
When I did my training my CFI taught me to stop at the run-up area and
go through the run-up checklist. This was done at airports that had run-up
areas readily available. Fairly recently, I went with an instructor that
taught me to do a run-up during taxi on airports that don't have a run-up
area...

Commuting in a plane... by
[email protected]
Has anyone here done a daily commute in a plane?
This would be a commute of about 70 miles and it would be in Southern California so the weather is less of an issue.
What aircraft would be best for this kind of cummute?
Trying to maximize speed and minimize costs...

Lightspeed Zulu pirep by
Kobra[_3_]
Flyers,
I would like to give a small PIREP of the new Lightspeed Zulu headset. I
bought one for the Bluetooth capability, but I was pleasantly surprised to
find it had much more to offer.
The comfort and fit was equal or surpassed my Bose X.
The ANR was about equal IMO to other headsets...

Seeking anecdotes about "instructor in command" by
Andrew Gideon
Hi, all:
I'm giving a presentation on what someone here called "instructor in
command" syndrome: a pilot getting complacent because there's an instructor
in the aircraft.
I've found a number of good ones here, but any more - esp. with something
"interesting" - would be welcome.
I'd also...

We can take pictures of objects on the Earth from space that
are 2 inch's wide. We can take pictures of objects on Mars
that are 12 inches wide. Why can't we find a wrecked
airplane in Nevada?? A place that is mostly dirt and sand
with very little vegetation?
Makes no sense

Okay, this guy can't be all bad. He's ridden a motorcycle to Milwaukee,
*and* he's flown into OSH?
He was interviewed yesterday in currently-frozen OSH, saying that he was
working hard to arrange for his campaign to be there during the fly-in.
I may not like his politics, but at least he's got...
