Is there an examiner on board that can summarize the significant changes in the new PTS? For example, is the GPS required to be turned off during one of the approaches?

I just restarted my subscription to NACO for a select few instrument charts and am not impressed with their quality. I just got my new charts effective for 9/1 and found two errors in less than 5 minutes of reviewing them. Here are the errors in case anyone is interested and uses these charts...

It gets real interesting when you are bouncing around in turbulence. I have an Apple Newton 2100 that I have used to record flight information on. The Newton is kneeboard size. Peter wrote: Hi, I've been told that airline operations increasingly use tablet PCs for ground planning purposes,...

The SLE LOC BC RWY 13 FAF is located at ARTTY: http://myairplane.com/databases/approach/NorthWest/SLE_lbr13.pdf In the notes it says "Artty Int not authorized for final approach fix". However it sure does look like the FAF in the elevation view. So only the fan marker can be used to identify the...

I don't have my AIM here at work, and I'm on dial up, so I won't attempt to download it, but I'm looking at the ILS 32 into KMQY Smyrna TN. It says ADF REQUIRED which I understand is to identify the IAF which is the SWZ NDB not associated with a marker beacon, inside the outer marker. This is the...

I'm looking to do an accelerated IFR course. Every now and then I see a small thread about it. If I do a google search, I get dozens of hits. I'm looking to talk to anyone that has taken a course, what they thought of it, where and approx how much. I've seen some of the big schools offer them...

The second printing of "Military Aircraft Designations and Systems" is still available. We were out of print soon after our October 2002 printing so it is good to have copies available again. We are also able to hold the original price, too. Military Aircraft designations catalogued from 1913 to...

The Second Revised Edition of "Military Aircraft Designations and Systems" from AeroFile Publications still has copies available, however, we are getting close to the end of our printing run. I am sure that if we expected the kind of response we have had, we would have budgeted for...

Hello, who in this group has some experience with IFR flightplanning software? I think about a software that knows about SID's und STAR's, MSA's (or MORA's), not necessarily with a graphical user interface but capable of printing a flight log. Thanks in advance... Kai

I've made this flight many times before and never encountered this before. I filed from my home airport (MGY) to PT(which is an NDB) to CYKZ using DUATS. Everything went fine. When I called for my clearance, they didn't have anything on me. So I departed VFR, and tried calling again. Still no luck....

If an approach has a hold in lieu of a PT, but the chart says "No PT", is the hold optional, or is it only available with ATC authorization the way a PT would be in this situation? I was looking at the ILS 2 approach into EEN, and there is a segment at 4000' from an IAF at the GDM VOR marked No...

I know it's been asked in this group before, but is there any place where you can download the current IAP's by state as a pdf file? thanks Randy

http://jidanni.org/comm/air/m750/index_en.html is my idea about realigning route M-750 to reduce noise in Taiwan. I wonder how practical it is.

Does a safety pilot have to have a current medical and be current as far as landings go, or just be rated in the category/class being flown?

Windsor Locks (BDL) has two different GPS RWY 6 approachs, Y and Z: http://www.airnav.com/depart?http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0406/00460RY6.PDF http://www.airnav.com/depart?http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0406/00460RZ6.PDF The procedures are almost identical, and I'm scratching my head trying to figure...

The bidding on the Cessna 210 ebay austion is halfway over, only 4 days left. So far the high bid os only $25,800 which would be the steal of the century...uhhh... I mean the steal of the Centurion! Put in a reasonable bid and you might fly away in a really nice airplane ! This airplane was...
