Checkride Today by
Z Sten
Hello all,
Well, after 7 months and exactly 51 hours of student air time, I passed
my SEL Checkride this morning. I spent nearly two hours last week doing
the oral portion, but opted out of the air portion due to excessively
high winds. But today dawned absolutely clear and cool with serenely
calm...

Any of you catch the feature segment on this morning's "TODAY" show

it, you missed seeing a GREAT story about this life-saving organization

Aviation Racism by

Should pilots begin working to identify and expose reverse racism
against white heterosexual men in the aviation workplace disguised under
the veil of diversity?

Is this legal for a private pilot? by
Yossarian
I'm an instrument rated private pilot. My CFI was going to fly with
one of his student pilots to an airport an hour away to go to the
student's vacation home, providing instruction along the way. Then he
would leave the student there for a couple days, and return to pick the
student up.
Now the...

Commercial pilot requirements & training questions by
Yossarian
In the next few months I plan on getting my commercial single engine
land and multi engine ratings. I'm totally baffled by the aeronautical
experience requirements though.
FAR 61.129 is pretty clear that SEL and MEL each have required dual and
solo cross countries and night flight. However I...

Ideas for a commercial long x-c? by

I fly out of Hawthorne CA (KHHR) and would like to hear some ideas for a
250-mile cross country. This is to fulfull the long x-c requirement forr

Copilot training program by
Yossarian

are not interested in becoming private pilots themselves--the spouse or
friend who goes flying with you all the time. The program would focus
on making that...

Requesting Flight Following from ground control by
Yossarian
I just learned recently that this was possible at my little airport,
Hawthorne CA (KHHR). Presumably they get a squawk for you from SoCal and
arrange your radar coverage. Couple questions--
1. What is the phraseology of the request to ground?
--I'm guessing it's just "ground, cessna 1234 can...

Stuck at work--need takeoff/landing distances for a 172 please by
Yossarian
Excuse my laziness but if anyone feels like checking some distances for
me I would be greatly appreciative ;)
172SP, fully loaded, 73' field elevation (Bermuda Dunes, CA), 120
degrees F, paved runway, assume no wind.
I have a feeling the density altitude isn't going to make this feasible.

Procedure turn required? by

I was using a Frasca 141 sim today with an instructor when this question
came up. Fullerton CA (KFUL) VOR-A approach. At WILMA on V64, flying the
full approach. Do you need to turn outbound at the VOR for the procedure
turn?
Instructor says no because a Victor airway leads to the IAF. I say...

Saw a low-flying rental... let the FBO know? by
Yossarian
Driving home today I saw a 172 that I've flown many times heading toward me
slowly at about 500'. This is in SoCal, so it's obviously a densely packed
urban area. In fact I pulled over and turned my car off so I could hear if
the Cessna was having engine trouble.
I'm debating whether to inform...
