It gets real interesting when you are bouncing around in turbulence. I have an Apple Newton 2100 that I have used to record flight information on. The Newton is kneeboard size. Peter wrote: Hi, I've been told that airline operations increasingly use tablet PCs for ground planning purposes,...

I thought that "VFR On Top" requires all of the same reports as regular IFR (include altitude changes). Perhaps this is only for non-radar environments? I thought the ONLY time you didn't have to advise ATC of change in altitude on an IFR clearance was when flying within an assigned vertical...

Good write up. Although I've always studied for my written tests the old fashion way, I've always been curious of how the weekend "cram" sessions work out for folks. By the way, was that 8:00 PM that you took the test, or the 8:00am the next morning? Either way, it sounds like some really...

I am also going to Boston next week (after Thanksgiving). Can you let me knwo the name of the Radio Shop?

He does all my radio work, so he's willing to give me a break on stuff that he can get, but I could also go elsewhere for. I wouldn't expect him to sell to an unknown at that price. Sorry. "Centurion" wrote in message ... ...

The potential for icing is based on the amount of supercooling more than the theoretical or actual skin temp. It seems doubtfulthat the skin heats up as much as would be predicted if the air has droplets in it that are actually impacting the surface. These two things combined with the fact that...
