Infrequent flying & IFR currency by Marty Ross
"Infrequent flying & IFR currency" - sounds like an oxymoron, I know. I'm limiting my flying now due to lack of income (anyone have work for a software developer?), yet would like to try to maintain my (recently acquired) IFR currency. I guess my best bet is to beg/borrow/steal/hire a safety...

Lightspeed with Foggles question by Rod Madsen
I just bought the Hood Lamb and had to send them back. They simply would not clamp to my David Clark H10-13.4 which have a narrower than usual band. To their credit, they acknowledge this problem with DC's and suggest friction tape to increase the girth of the band. Didn't work...to rinky-dink...

How much turbulence is too much? by Marty Ross
In reviewing the Warrior II's performance numbers in preparation for my recent trip across California, I realized that Va would be much lower than I had always considered it (given that it's just me inside, with gas burning off towards reserve only). The Va that's written on my lapboard is...

Boom mounted O2 cannula by Viperdoc

Got my Instrument Rating! by Jazzy_Pilot

GPS SUbstitute for DME or ADF by S. Ramirez
Someone in another forum said that it's okay to substitute certified GPS for DME or ADF on an approach plate that depicts FAFs or intersecting points using DME or ADF. I asked that person to back it up with a reference from an official document like the FARs, AIM or something that the FAA puts...

Another difference between the US and Canada. by Roger Halstead
I had a friend ask me today how I'd cancel a flight plane that I had never activated. I gave the usual answer...If I never activated it, I don't need to cancel it. If I haven't activated it past the closing time it gets dropped. Canceling one that has been activated and flown is *usually* not a...

Precession of 10 degrees in 10 minutes too much? by Jay Moreland
I need to find out if there is an official maximum amount of precession for a Directional Gyro. My aircraft precesses 10 degrees in 10 minutes during mostly straight and level flight with only a few shallow banks. One avionics tech told me that it depends on the gyro manufacturer as to what is...

Surface to Air Missile threat by PlanetJ
The FBI has arrested three men in connection with a plot to smuggle a surface to air missile into the United States. You do understand what a successful strike with a surface-to-air missile would do, don't you? Not only would it kill the 100+ people who happened to be on the targeted airliner, it...
