Hi Kevin, Great write up as usual! :-) Glad to hear the approaches are getting better. Knew it would come though, it was only a matter of time. That's got to be some kind of rush when it finally all comes together. Congratulations! Your first experience with settling with power sounds fun! ...

Cows mixed with aviation have some kind of odd humor about them. You remnded me of my cow story: I get my major maintenance done at HAS Corp. in SW PA. Their place has a sloping grass strip and a helipad to land at. I needed a ride back there one day to pick up the helicopter, so I called the...

Flew at 10am yesterday and damned if I didn't fly like I knew what the hell I was doing... I'd been eyeballing the weather since I woke up at 6 and DUATS said it'd be relatively clear until the early evening so I hopped on the bike and headed to work - wanted to squeeze in a couple hours before...

Hello folks, I just saw this link on yahoo news, I didn't see anything about it on www.news.navy.mil yet, probably soon. I put it on a naval newsgroup, but you guys will be just as interested...

Hi, Kevin, I'm a full-time writer and (what feels like) a full-time student pilot in the Phoenix area, and enjoy your posts from both perspectives: they're a joy to read, and since I'm just slightly behind you in hours, they're always relevant. And I gotta tell you, your bad days are even better...

Well I finally got to go flying again today. It's been a week since my first day at it and I've been dying to get up again. The weather was much the same as last week, slightly blustery around 10 kts with good visibility and temperature around 23 degrees C. We started off in the first hour by...

What % of power at max pedal input does the tail rotor take. Is it about the same % of total power for a Bell 47 as a UH-1 or a Hiller UH-12?

Don't know why but 5 minutes after I posted this Outlook told me it was no longer on the server. So I'm reposting it. Apologies if Outlook lies and it's up twice. -- Well I finally got to go flying again today. It's been a week since my first day at it and I've been dying to get up again. The...

FWIW, I received a BSEE in electrical engineering in 1984, and have been working in the high tech industry since then. That has allowed me to Learn How To Fly - starting in 1999. As a result, I have about 130 hours in helicopters and around 240 hours in fixed-wing aircraft, with an instrument...
