Bike For the Plane? by
[email protected]
This is an update on the above topic, the last entry of which was in
August, 2004. It appears that the "Reply" option goes away at some
point - thus this was entered as a new topic.
Anyway, I had been on the lookout for a suitable folding bike - and
recently came across one that looked like it...

GPS Advice: Lowrance 500/1000/2000c by
[email protected]
Hello all. I am pretty much set on getting a Lowrance GPS but I'm
trying to make a decision between the three models offered. I'm pretty
much looking at the 1000 or 2000c, but I'm throwing the 500 in the mix
as well because, as far as I can tell, it's another good GPS with a
smaller screen. ...

Discussion on dealing with future ADIZ Incursions by light A/C by
Hank Rausch
I would like to start a thread on what I see as the most pertinent
take-away from yesterday's incursion: How can the current responses be
modified to make the response more relevant to the threat, when the
inevitable occurs again and a pilot gets lost? Assuming pilots won't
get lost in the future...

Would a NASA form help? by
Jesse Wright
Just had a thought... could the two pilots who busted the DC restricted
airspace avoid a certificate action by filing an ASRS report? Here's
my thought process on this.
Was the violation inadvertant? Probably so. From the limited reports
that I have seen, they were aware of the restricted zones...

Trip to Dallas by
Dan Luke
Went to Dallas IFR from Mobile on Wednesday, my first time to fly there.
It's a 475 nm trip, about 3.5 hours in my C172RG with a little lucky
tailwind.
I filed BFM MCB GGG direct DAL. As expected, when I got near DFW
Regional airspace, I got an amendment to my clearance: direct GGG,

I'm (hopefully) taking my first trip to South Lake Tahoe on Sunday as part
of a mountain flying checkout with my club. I noticed that the control
tower is no longer active - but the AF/D (and sectional) still has the Class
D active during normal hours. I know it doesn't really matter from...

My friend and I are planning a flight in a new Cirrus 22. We intend to
leave Denver May 26 and would appreciate the groups thoughts as to possible
routing.
Is it practical to go a direct as possible? Or would the best advice be to
travel south then west to avoid crossing the mountains.

How safe is a new teenaged pilot? by
anon
Our 17 year old son want to fly as a passenger with his 17 year old friend who
is a brand new pilot. We think the boy is level-headed and mature. He grew up
flying with his dad who is a retired test pilot for an aircraft manufacturer.
These credentials not withstanding, I'm guessing that there...

EAA Hops and Props - OSH by
Jim Burns
Well, we survived. Didn't get drunk. Didn't fly any airplanes after our
beer. Didn't crash our car on the way home. Only a data point of 1, but
maybe pilots really can get close to airplanes while drinking alcohol
without becoming statistics! :)
Saturday evening my wife and I attended the EAA...
