WxWorx gets a workout by Dan Luke
Yesterday was one of those sopping wet, unstable Gulf Coast spring days and I needed to get an Angel Flight couple from Mobile to Jennings, LA (3R7, west of Lafayette) in the afternoon. By the time we were ready to leave BFM at noon, the NEXRAD on our route looked like a cheap Hawaiian luau shirt...

X-max cross-country feasible? by [email protected]
Hey all... just figured I'd try to gather some opinions on the feasiblity of a cross-country flight (VA-WI-VA) this time of year. I'm primarily concerned with the longevity of icing conditions. For those who fly in the area, how long would one expect to get stuck for this problem in a typical...

X-Plane for IFR training? by Paul Folbrecht
I've been using On Top 8 as my IFR training sim, and it's not bad, but I have two problems with it: 1) It is terribly oversensitive in pitch (with my CH yoke at least) and there seems to be no way around this. 2) My main machine is a dual G5 PowerMac and I'd be much happier with a Mac sim. ...

XM Weather - Sirius merger with XM Radio by Roy N5804F
Sirius is making headway in merging with XM Radio. No one seemed to be asking at the Anti Trust hearing whether or not Sirius will continue to maintain the XM aviation weather services. Or if they do, at what cost to the users ? I would imagine that this will be another User Fee that is going to...

XM Wx Garmin 430/430W with Garmin GDL-69? by [email protected]
I recently swapped my 430 for a 430W. Is anyone using XM weather from a GDL-69 on either a 430 or 430W? How do you find it on that small display? What about getting METARs, for example - is there too much button pushing, or not so bad? Would you make the same purchase decision again or put the...

Yet more GPS substitution questions by Peter Clark
Yet another GPS substitution question... It's a given that you can't use GPS to shoot an approach labled "ADF blah" unless it says "ADF or GPS blah", but how do the alternate rules really work? The regs say that I have to have an approach that I'm equipped for other than GPS at the alternate...
