I remember way back as part of the private training, good old CFII J O'B would insist on a power reduction and flaps passing the numbers downwind, he'd reserve the right to chop the power at any time and often did somewhere around the turn to base to see if I had enough energy to make the...

c-150 crashed into house Man and 8 year old daughter Possible suicide flight http://www.wishtv.com/

Okay, folks, enough is enough. We've got good, long-term, high quality pilots seriously discussing vandalizing someone's website, because of said someone's troll-dom. In the past, I have defended said troll, and lambasted said vandals, but have now come to realize that this troll is obviously so...

Let's see... Blanche is in Colorado. TWC reported one ski resort weather report as "pounding snow". Montblack is in Minneapolis. The forecast there is for 10-17 inches of new snow over the next three days, and the wind is blowing pretty good, too. Jay Honneck is on the edge of a system between...

What aspects of slow-speed or minimum-speed flight should I practice? I've managed to fly for indefinite periods at just above stall speed, straight and level and in standard-rate turns, holding altitude steady. I've managed to do this both with full flaps and no flaps, gear extended and...

Not to be confused with Yakko or Dot... Just had the DG replaced (went precessing 60 deg on a 90 deg turn) yesterday. Ran the engine up and taxi'd to the ramp from the shop. Things looked ok - no, wait! the AI is upside down. Now, I'm used to seeing it canted to the right before everything is run...

I am looking for the FAA link to do a search of 337s on a plane and also the place to do a search of leans on the plane (AOPA??). One last thing, what paperwork is required now days to sell a plane. Danny Deger

I guess we all knew this was gonna happen... I read this on AvWeb this morning - not only is Cirrus named in the suit, but also Teledyne, Hartzel, S-Tec, Honeywell and Justice Aviation (whoever they are). And this *before* the NTSB has determined the cause. Unbelievable. They claim the feds' data...

See http://us.cnn.com/2007/WEATHER/02/17/winter.weather.ap/index.html So what would cause windshields to crack on many different types of aircraft at the same time? It wasn't impact or anything like that. The weather was not exceptional for a Denver winter. Multiple aircraft models from...

A couple miles north of Edwardsville, IL and 3 miles ESE of ALN (St Louis Regional). Best info I have is a biplane. A pilot who witnessed it said it was trailing smoke, impacted, went 30 yards and flipped. Fire department had difficult time getting to isolated rural site because of locked gates and...

We lost a friend yesterday in a Baron C55. He lost the left engine on takeoff, apparently stalled, went inverted and lawn darted into the ground, through a small grove of trees. According to reliable sources, the gear was down an locked, flaps in takeoff position and fuel selectors on "Aux"....

I know this video is about 6 months old but I'm looking for a way to get more info on the accident. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V06LBgfuxgA The facts as I have them a 1) The pilot landed with the wind 2) The airport that does not allow jets. 3) The Citation needs 3570' to land and the runway...

yesterday I finished my latest rating. Commercial Single Engine Sea! It was a lot of fun. Now I have to get floats for the Maule! I was actually having fun while training for the rating. That was a change. Next year? CMES? That will round out the powered rating for me. Michelle P

It's not working.

I've looked at the manual for the software, and I can't see if the software I have (that came with it) can do this. I went flying in my Cessna with my new Christmas toy (the AirMap® 600C) and I'd like to download the data (trails) so I can see how well I did with my speed and altitude during my...

Would like poster quality picture of DC3 and 787 panels with overhead. Also would like same for Gruman Albatross. Posted same to binary usnet group without result. -- Jim in Houston Nurse's creed: Fill what's empty, empty what's full, and scratch where it...

It's still not working. It is pretty hard to not respond to the continued stupidity, given my Baron experience, as well as my years as an Air Force flight surgeon. However, I do use Novus 1 on the windshield, which seems to work well. It is a lot more expensive than Pledge. I use it on leading...
