Hello, Has anyone have first hand experience with both the Argus 5000 and Argus 5000ce. I know a lot of users have transitioned to the CE, but functionality-wise they are about the same. (minus the color, of course) My biggest issue is that I sometime deplore the contrast of my 5000 unit,...

I saw this again on Discovery Wings today, and I think I picked up on the following: The controller (tower?) says: "QNH one-zero-zero-eight" This is the local altimeter setting in hPa (hecto Pascal) Lindbergh replies: "three-zero-zero-eight" Which would be the "normal" / US setting, in inches of...

Have you ever carefully studied what the regulations actually REQUIRE regarding the various experience requirements for an instrument rating? The XC requirement in particular, is one that oftentimes unnecessarily adds to the cost of an instrument rating and delays getting it. According to the...

If a Glide Slope is OTS at your IFR destination and you find out after departure what does it do for insurance on a corporate or private jet?

I am new to IFR (pilot a long time just working on rating now, not sure how much I will use it but hope too). I am restoring an old plane and doing a completely new panel, which I need to spec out in about 6 months. I would like to keep the plane light, but still... I need some help in deciding...

Hi! Sorry if this has been beaten to death already..... I am going to get an instrument rating soon, and are considering my options. Has anyone here any knowledge about taking an IR couorse in the US and converting it to a JAR license in Europe? What is involved?

Today I finally took the plunge and ordered the distance study course towards the ATPL frozen theory! I have been wanting this for years, but it's quite a costly thing to start, so it's taken a while! I now have 280 hours on my PPL, and looking forward to get my IR rating maybe next...

I hope the FAA has a very fat wallet LEXINGTON, Ky. - The lone air traffic controller on duty the morning Comair Flight 5191 crashed cleared the jet for takeoff, then turned his back to do some "administrative duties" as the aircraft veered down the wrong runway, a federal investigator said...

Sound Familiar? Let's see! What has the flying public found out so far about the Kentucky tragedy? We know FAA violated their own orders for minimal ATCT staffing at this location. We know the Veteran controller was being worked like a dog as many "Veteran and experienced" controllers and...

An excellent reminder that there really are good reasons to do a thorough preflight and to make sure the controls are free. This happened just north of Winnipeg, and the aircraft was the first version with PT-6-67 Turboprops. The Canadian DOT concluded that the control locks were still locked when...

Who can explain this approach to me - VOR + DME RWY 14 (LIEE) http://www.vatita.net/download/planning/files/LIEE_ial.pdf I flew as a passenger in an Alitalia MD80 the other day, and we apparently flew this approach. As we made our left turn to final, I could see the PAPI lights on RWY 14 - all...

We're always complaining about the subtleties of this or that procedure, so I thought I'd throw in this one from Corsica. I particularly like the missed approach - in IMC at night. http://faris.nerim.net/LFKJ.JPG G Faris

I know it's not considered good form to discuss or speculate on accidents before the factual reports are released - however I'll bet I'm not the only one who pulls up an approach plate when hearing about an accident on an IFR approach. In my opinion, as long as the interest remains technical, and...

Who can tell me what the wording means in 135.225 (a) (1) and (2). So you don't have to look it up - these are weather reporting minima to initiate an instrument approach procedure. (1) (the) airport has a weather reporting facility operated by the US NWS, a source approved by the NWS or a source...
