Air safety priorities at the DOT and FAA by
JJ
The current "politically correct" priorities at the DOT and FAA. The FAA
is cutting safety positions and running off good qualified people every
day but our DOT chief is more worried about National Fag month. Think
about that the next time you are in the fog and clouds. Your Government

FAA pulls funding for LAAS landing systems by
JJ
LAAS (Local Area Augmentation System) was to provide CAT 2 and 3 ILS
capability at major airports by fine tuning GPS and up loading
correction signals to aircraft. FAA has canceled the program. Looks like
the ground based ILS systems once slated for removal by 2010 are here to
stay.

North Atlantic IFR routes by
JJ
When commercial aircraft fly across the big pond during IFR weather, how
does FAA and foreign Air Traffic control keep an eye on them without
radar? I understand most flights to and from Europe go up over
Newfoundland and over south of Greenland and Iceland. Can a radar see
out that far? Just...

past the phrase "sleazy" in their wordiing?

Honeywell KFC-225 autopilot - what could cause this failure? by
Joerg
Hi Peter,
The mpeg didn't play for me but just a few thoughts:
Since they say they couldn't reproduce it on the ground, could this be a
noise issue? Possible sources would be the radio, a transponder
transmission, engine ignition, maybe a motor driven trim, fuel equalizer
pump if you have one....

The Night Before Christmas by
John
Twas the night before Christmas and all over the place,
When we were confronted by an old flying ace.
There was icing reported and turbulent air,
He said, "File me a flight plan, I gotta get there."
Outside sat his aircraft all ready to run,
And the old man walked out to that P-51.
"Bad weather's...

Constant Angle Non-Precision Approaches (CANPA) by
John Bell
I noticed the thread about "Crossing a stepdown fix high" got quite a bit of
debate. One of the topics in much of the discussion centered on stabilized
approaches verses dive and drive.
I was initially a skeptic on using CANPA, but I have come to believe that it
is a better way of flying...
