CFII instructor as passenger (FAA) by
Dave S
It IS possible for an instructor to give dual instruction without
logging (or being) PIC.
In one instance, I did some instrument training in my aero-club's
Grumman Tiger. The instrument instructor I used was not yet checked out
in the aircraft type in the club. So, from a club insurance point...

Unusual Honeywell KLN94 aviation GPS failure - what could causethis? by
Dave S
I have seen that indication when the antenna did not have a clear view
of the sky.
The installed aircraft was an EADS/Socata TB-9 with gull wing doors.
Coming out of the pad, the pilot's door when up (as it was in the
summer) would obscure much of the sky and not allow the GPS to get a...

I just became the proud owner of an auction radio, a King KLN 89B GPS
reciever only, sold without tray or antenna.
I was curious about how interchangeable the trays are between the KLN
models.. say.. is the connector on a KLN 88 loran tray physically
compatible with the KLN 89 chassis (I will be...

Garmin DME arc weidnress by
Dave Touretzky
I recently flew my first DME arc transition using my Garmin GNS-530.
It's always fun and challenging to figure out what the Garmin thinks
it's doing; see my list of "Garmin gotchas" for examples:

Below is the newly-added entry on my DME arc experience.

Cloud Tops/bases forecast? by

I'm looking for a tool that forecasts cloud bases and tops for a route
of flight. I use http://adds.aviationweather.gov to approximate this
by viewing the freezing levels, icing potential, pireps, etc., but it
seems with all our modern satellite and radar products as well as

I'm considering flying from ROA to CLT for a business meeting at the

Garmin 430 "Approach Not Active" by
David
Yesterday I flew two approaches with my GNS 430, the RNAV (GPS) RWY 03
at KCHO, and the RNAV (GPS) RWY 24 at KROA. In both cases, the 430
reported "Approach Not Active" just s I reached the FAF (JAGAG at CHO
and HIBAN at ROA), and stopped sequencing. I am quite certain that I
activated both...

IFR Long X/C and the Specter of Expectations by
David B. Cole
Yesterday we finally had a chance to do the long X/C. For those of
you that don't know, I have about 50 hours of dual instrument and I'm
fairly close to the checkride. At least that's what my instructor
proposes. So as you can see my long X/C came later for me than most.
I've also had an...

My First Time In Severe Turbulence (Long) by

Tuesday's forecast for my neck of NJ was for a high of 63, light rain,

Rwy 2 approach. However, by the time I made it to the airport the
layers were mostly scattered...

First Solo In Actual Conditions by

On Saturday I had my first opportunity to fly solo in actual since my

training I had always...
