Garmin 196 simulator mode by
John Bell
The 196 will automatically follow the route. However, you can manually
steer right and left using the left right on the touchpad in addition to up
and down for speed.
I have some info about navigating using the GPS at www.cockpitgps.com.

'They want to ban recreational flying...' by
Thomas J. Paladino Jr.
I have not read more ignorant, self-important, illogical and just plain
dimwitted crap anywhere else on the internet, than there is on this site. I
just don't even know where to begin.
Be sure to drop these people a note and let them know exactly what you think

Info and Links for WX in the Russian Far East Region by
Frode Berg
Hi!
You probably know this, but Russia charges quite a lot of money for ATC
service.
So, whenever you enter Russian airspace, I think you're charged 100 US per
100 km or something.
I may be way off, but I have considered flying to Russia, and found out it
cost several hundred dollars in ATC...

GPS Models -- Pros and Cons by
Aviv Hod
Jay,
The guy that I bought my Garmin 195 from also had a ControlVision setup
for the same price. I asked him which one was better and he unequivocally
recommended the Garmin. He said that although the CV product had some nice
features, it's not as reliable and really is a mess in the cocpit. ...

Flight Schools in UK? by
Carl Orton
I have the opportunity to spend some time in England in the next few weeks,
and will be there for a weekend.
Anyone know of any flight schools in the vicinity of Preston, Huntingdon,
Lincoln, or Salisbury?
Thought I'd occupy my time in a constructive way and see a bit more of the
UK from on...

Dayton USAF museum by
JFLEISC
Well, this is embaressing; I had posted a question about a month ago about
where to fly to in the Dayton area to go to the USAF museum and several of you
kind folks recommended one of the outlying less congested airports (plus some
others) with a good family-run (I think) FBO. Now that I want to...

Aircars...don't they get it? by
Ted Huffmire
There couldn't be an aircar in every garage
unless we did away with the FAA medical.
What about all the people with a
"disqualifying" medical condition?
Seems like just about any medicine out
there is banned.
Probably public pressure would do away
with a medical cert for personal air travel.
Also,...

Of course they'll report on the plane crash because it's a more unusual

What do you want them to do, *not* report fatal aviation...

RONs - NJ -> OSH by
Michael Bullock
I'm planning on taking my 4 & 6 year olds to their first Oshkosh.
However, I don't think they'll have the stamina or patience to make the
trip from my Central NJ location into OSH in one day. Probably would be
best to fly a few hours and then do some kid-friendly activity for the
rest of the...

Speed monitored by aircraft???? by
Jim Buckridge
I saw one of these signs along I-78 in NJ. Now, I find it
***REALLY*** hard to believe that this particular sign is true. The
highway is congested and with radar guns and all, monitoring speed by
aircraft (copter maybe?) seems expensive and unnecessary.
I know I've seen these signs elsewhere -...
