X-C from NC to FL over Atlantic ? by John Doe
Anyone flown X-C down the east coast way out over the Atlantic? I'm new to the east coast and I'm interested in flying from NC to Florida. The direct route would take me a good ways out over the Atlantic. I'm not concerned about flying over way, just curious as to what issues I'm about...

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.

WxWorx flight test by Dan Luke
Today was a good day for it, as there were CBs in all directions around Mobile (so, what else is new?). Around the airport, though, it was scattered cu. with bright sun, a good test for the Sony notebook's viewability. The WxWorx receiver slipped neatly into the Cessna's right front map pocket...

WxWorx continued by Dan Luke
Today the Sony VAIO PCG-TR1AP notebook arrived, so I was able to install WxWorx on it and add the GPS map option. The Sony is a dandy little machine. It's about 10.5"x7"x2" folded up. The screen is 10.6" diag. and, as advertized, very bright. It was easily viewable in the car when I took it for a...

WxWorx by Wyatt Emmerich
After struggling with my EchoFlight Orbcom datalink, I gave up. Forty minute nexrad data, when it worked at all, didn't help me much. Lo and behold, they now have a Wxworx interface, which I just installed today. Within two minutes I have all the weather data in the entire U.S. in high-res...

Wrong data in Jepp GPS database? by Roy Smith
I had a strange experience with our CNX-80 earlier today. Heading back into HPN, we tried to bring up the approach frequency 126.4, and discovered it wasn't in the database. There were the normal secondary freqs (120.8 and 124.65), but no 126.4. Then I looked up DXR (Danbury, right next...

wonders of VFR on top by Robert M. Gary
The other day I wanted to get a clearance to get above an overcast while in cruise. When I asked for a clearance the controller said it would be awhile because my destination was more than 500 miles away. He said he needed to get me a clearance all the way there even though my intention was to...

Winter Cloud Tops by O. Sami Saydjari
This is somewhat related to the optimal altitudes question, but I thought I would start a new thread here... What are the typical cloud tops at for winter flying--if there is any such thing as typical. I would venture to guess that tops are below 10,000 ft 80% of the time. I am talking here...

Winds on approach by kevmor
I flew yesterday and did some practice approaches, and the winds were about 20 knots gusting to 26-28. I've flown almost all approaches so far in a different 172 that had a 180hp conversion. Because of the winds, I kept almost full cruising power on the descents to try and maintain my normal 90...
