Flying with a baby by netnews.mchsi.com
Hey all- I am wondering what the thoughts are out there on flying with newborns. Here is my situation. I have a 2 1/2 month old who is healthy. My father-in-law wants to fly us from Des Moines, IA to St. Paul, MN next weekend. I think that the trip is around 1 hour. I have done a...

R.I.P. Gordon Baxter by Dave S
I came across his obituary today while reading the Houston Chronicle at breakfast. For those who knew of him, his health had been poor for many years, and his passing was inevitable. His columns were a regular read when I subscribed to Flying in the early...

Help with Identifying Special Instrument by Herbert Paulis
Folks, I had this posted a few days ago from another system, seems it did not get through. I need your expertise. In our club a flight instrument came up which baffles us. It is kind of a timer with a mech clock, allows to set an airspeed on its left side (with a locking thumbwheel) and has an...

Two Lock Rule? by Robert M. Gary
As far as I know only NJ has such a rule. My Champ had a key for the door and another key for the mags. If yours is the same, you're good to go.

interstate runnways? by zaphod
OK, This sounded a little strange to me, but during lunch today with some co-workers, someone asked if I knew of some rules regarding interstate construction. They had heard a bit of trivia that claimed that an interstate highway must have sections that are straight, level, and long enough for a...

30 minute reserve by Chris W
Isn't this 30 *minute* reserve rule for day VFR flight a bit odd? Here are 2 examples to illustrate why I say that. In a J3 Cub you are going to go just over 35 miles in those 30 minutes. In an RV-7, you can go 100 miles with that same 30 minutes reserve. If there is a head wind the difference...

Rent plane from another private pilot? by GEG
I'm about 15 flight hours along in flight training. My buddy is about 30 hours along and rounding the bend. He's going to buy a plane - just part of his overall goal. So here's a question: (Let's assume I get a my PPL and checkout in the plane and everything is cool .. .)

What does REC mean on the switch? by Jose
So now we have a split landing light switch, because we have lights on the wings too. The nose light switch says LDG which is easy enough to decipher. The other, which controls the two forward-looking landing-type lights on the wing tips, says REC. Well, I'm as dumb as the next one, but if I...

Biplane rides in Boston Area? by Alan
Anyone know of any "credible" operators in the Boston area who sell rides in a historic biplane like a Waco or Stearman? Old Rhinebeck is probably too far to go. Looking to buy an hour or so of time as a gift for my cousin's son. Thanks, Alan Bloom Dogs can fly. http://www.flyingmutts.com

Aircraft type designators new vs. old and ATC by John
About 9 years ago, the (USA) FAA had us switch to new aircraft type designator codes, which were different then what we previously used for some aircraft. This, like airspace types, four digit identifiers, and METAR/TAF weather formats was part of the greatness of International standardization. ...

Exhaust pipe on one side is sooty by Casey Wilson
This last weekend, I was helping wash down a Cessna-150. The port side of the belly was pretty sooty as was the exhaust pipe. The starboard exhaust seems fine. Is that normal? Or is there some impending failure implied? The airplane is a rental and the last couple 100-hour checks don't reveal any...

Below sea level by Hilton
Hi, How is standard temperature and pressure defined below sea level? How does DA increase/decrease below sea level? I know that the gravitation force starts decreasing in a *linear* fashion below sea level, but how that affect the temp, pressure, and DA is beyond me. Any books, or URLs that...

Call signs by buttman
When I used to fly Cessna 152's and 172's, I'd always just say "Cessna 12345...". Now that I fly Piper Warriors, I began using "Piper 12345...", but then I realized no one else says just "Piper", they say "Seneca 12345", or "Twin Comanche 12345...", so I began using the callsign "Warrior 12345..."...
