Does anybody have definite word if FAA physicals (private pilot, not commercial) are or should be covered by health insurance?

Considering flying into (Horace Williams) IGX after Sun-N-Fun. I'm low timer, not keen on RDU traffic with my small plane. How is the service? security? overnight parking? ---------------------------------------------------- SQ2000 exp. http://www.abri.com/sq2000

Up till now I have been using the /G Flight plan equipment suffix. I have IFR rated GPS Garmin 300XL + Narco 122D VOR/LOC/GS. But with the cost of Jeppesen $kybound service "skyrocketing" (30% jump in one year) I plan not to update the card full time and use GPS for VFR only - I am not wealthy nor...

Hi, Just returned from Oshkosh home to Pierre SD. I filled up at Dodge Center MN this AM and not being familiar with the self serve gas fillup, I did not hang up the pump handle properly. Somebody after me continued pumping another $150 on my credit card ($200 instead of about $50). My...

Comming in directly from east, which is the correct VFR approach frequency? John Wayne airport website lists three frequencies depending on direction - 128.1 for NE-SE. The AOPA online guide and Airnav only give 121.3. Sectionals and LA TAC shows 121.3 from N and 132.7/124.1 (4000&below/above) from...

Does anybody have the Koch Chart formula (equation)? Or know where to find it? I have a chart copy but want the function.

I read a report about a local airport with this statement: "With existing Instrument Landing System (ILS) technology, inclement weather, such as fog, is not a material obstacle to commercial service operations." I was under the impression that the FAA says fog is 1/4 mile visibility. Can anyone...

i'm studying for my private license and i am a bit confused about this high to low, look out below. the way I see it: imagine an altimeter sitting at sea level. lets say the atomspheric pressure at the location of the altimeter is "10" (no units, just for simplicity). now lets say you set the...

After reading the “Do you always file IFR?” thread, I began thinking about some of the benefits of IFR flight that some mentioned. The two biggest being that you can cruise at altitudes that decrease your chances of colliding with a VFR aircraft and you’re guaranteed flight...

I've been reading the book "Aftermath" by the editors of Flying magazine. The book describes an accident that I'd like more information on. It was a head-on midair that occurred in VMC between a Piper Navajo and an Army U-21, just east of Kansas City, Missouri. There was a single pilot in the...

A friend recently asked me to explain the magenta circles seen around numerous airports on sectionals. It got me to thinking about how useful they are. Personally, if the weather isn't good enough to fly VFR in Class E airspace, I'm not going to fly VFR, even if it is legal in Class G airspace. So,...

The FAA is expecting to publish its final rule covering Light Sport Aircraft, Sport Pilots, and the training and repair requirements sometime this year. I'm wondering what impact this rule will have on traffic pattern operations at non-towered airports. Most non-towered airports have a single...

I received a handheld Magellan Meridian Color GPS for Christmas. How good a GPS is this for aviation purposes? Are there any accessories or software/database packages that are aviation related and suitable for use with this GPS unit? Thanks.

Can anyone explain why runway lengths are sometimes "X thousand and ONE feet" in length? I was just looking through a list of Iowa's approximately 110 airports and 7 of them have runways that are "X thousand and one feet" long. Do runway manufacturing companies offer special deals like "Buy...

As reported in AvWeb, the Wright Redux Association plans to fly their Wright Flyer replica in September at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. I would urge everyone to contact them and let them know that they should consider flying somewhere other than Chicago in light of the Mayor's...
