ATPL student by Frode Berg

Attitude Indicator by KP
Every time I get in the aircraft and before I start the engine I notice the attitude indicator is displaying a nose down and a left turn. Why is that? Is there something wrong with the instrument and is near failure? KP

Attitude indicators by R&A Kyle
A typical AI display is "inside out", ie the view is from inside the plane looking out. Some (Russian) aircraft use the reverse display, ie a fixed horizon and a moving airplane graphic. Does anyone know of work done to measure the human factors benefits / penalties of these two approaches? BTW...

AUG VOR/DME 8 by Gary Drescher
The AUG VOR/DME 8 profile shows a fix at AUG 1.9, just before the MAP at AUG 0.5. But there no separate altitude designations are shown for the segment just before or just after AUG 1.9. The profile shows a transition from a diagonally-downward flight path to a horizontal flight path at AUG 1.9....

AUTOPILOT PROS & CONS by STICKMONKE
I got my IFR rating 7 months ago. I use the KAP140 autopilot a lot. From climb-out to MDA/DA. I find it really helps in my management of the plane and the IFR flight. I am interested in comments regarding the pros and cons of a heavy use/reliance on the autopilot.

Aviation Charts for Puerto Vallarta by Will
Where can I find approach and departure charts for rural airports in the Sierra Madre mountains that surround Puerto Vallarta, Mexico? I realize many of these mountain airports are little more than a dirt road next to a farm and do not have published instrument approaches, but I would still like...
