AWOS but no METAR (Clarion County, PA KAXQ) by
Jeff Saylor
Clarion County (KAXQ) in western Pennsylvania has a comissioned
AWOS-3 that transmits on 118.275. However there is no METAR
report available for the field.
Is there any particular reason why this is so? It seems a waste
to have a functional weather reporting device that can't
contribute its...

UTICA TRSA shape by
Jeff Saylor
The UTICA TRSA (western New York) is situated around both
towered Oneida County (KUCA) and non-towered Griffis Airpark
(KRME), formerly Griffis AFB. It is centered on KRME, so perhaps
that is where the radar antenna is.
The outer perimeter of the TRSA is a large circle, about 14-15 nm
radius,...

WINGS, BFR, and Log entries by
Andrew Gideon

serving in place of a BFR? AC 61-91H merely mentions in (6) that the
completion serves in place of a BFR, and in (9) mentions "...logbooks or
other proficincy records...". At various WINGS-fulfilling events, a form

Methane Cloud? by
Martin
Saw just a real short clip of something on the Disc channel tonight
about how methane clouds affect aircraft. Lower pressure causes the
plane to drop because of reduced lift, and the altimeter to read a
climb because of the pressure change. I think this show may have been
in the context of bermuda...

The SR20's limit of 12000 hours is still too limiting, IMHO, but I can
