1. GA books, 2. Salt water Lake? by
doylflier
1. Reading the yard-sale-acquired novel, "Flight of the
Intruder" (Stephen Coonts) and I was wondering if anyone knows a good
novel which is similarly specific as to what is happening in the
cockpit as the first three chapters, at least, of that novel, except
specific to GA or other non-military...

10,500 feet is way the heck up there! by
Jay Honeck
I've spent a fair number of hours droning along at 10,500 feet in the
MidWest. (For you mountain-flyer-types that think 10.5 K is LOW, that
altitude is a lot different here in Iowa, cuz it puts you almost two miles
above Mother Earth.) It's usually quite boring, and is something I
normally do...

100 Hour Inspection Question by
FryGuy
I have a question around a 100 hour inspection requirement. I've had time
blocked off at my local FBO for over a month to take a plane this Saturday.
Me and another pilot buddy are taking up the coast of North Carolina and
are going to hit the airports in the Outer Banks and go to the museum...

and no person may give flight instruction for hire in an aircraft which that
person...

100 LL Replacement? by
Dave[_5_]
I came across an interesting set of slides that go into considerable
technical detail about the problems of coming up with a replacement
for 100LL. The conclusion: Avgas 91/96UL (Unleaded), as apparently now
available in Sweden. Check it out:...

In the U.S., does 91.409(b) required 100hr inspections for a non-profit
flying club?
Here are some relevant details:
A club (a non-profit corporation in the eyes of the state) is formed
specifically as a flying club, and has no purpose other than to provide
its members with aircraft for private...

100LL Quality by
vlado
Since 100LL has been made available, has the quality or formulation
changed? Watching automotive fuels at the pump, car gas has changed
with various additives, ethanol, etc. But what about 100LL? Has 100LL
chemistry remained the same since its initial introduction?
Thx.

12 dead this weekend from GA crashes by
Skylune
6 in South Carolina, 3 in Wisconsin, 3 in Florida (another Cirrus).
A current AOPA focus is to make sure flying remains affordable for owners
of "tired iron."
They awarded a 1974 plane to a lucky winner in Colorado.
On this web page a writer laments that GA planes don't have locking gas
caps.

121.5 MHz ELT's (was Breitling Watch) by

I had a very interesting conversation with one of the governmental
agencies in their building up at OSH. It began as a discussion of the
new personal locator beacons, and evolved into aircraft epirb's.
After a certain date in the near future, the satellites will no longer
be listening for the 121.5...
