FAR:Safety Pilot & High Performance/Complex? by
Teacherjh
1) I have a friend who needs to go practice some IFR approaches to stay
current. I am a private pilot ASEL. I'm pretty sure that it is not a
problem with me being his safety pilot but he told me I can log the time
PIC. Is this correct?
Yes but...
Since you will not be the "sole...

Non-Alcoholic Beers by
John Theune
It came up in another forum that O'Douls ( a non-alcoholic beer ) is not
truly non-alcoholic, but rather it's less then .5%. A reference to a
http://www.drugs.indiana.edu/publications/iprc/factline/lowalc.html tells
more and points out that these types of beverages are not considered
alcoholic...

How much should a friend charge to fly? by
Jim Fisher
Long story but some financial doldrums I've experienced for the past year
look to be coming to an end. I sold my way-too-big house and am getting
into something less insane. Business is recovering and, I dare say,
rocking. My purdy wife still loves me. Life is good.
More importantly, soaring...

GPS 90b out of date? by
Roger Long
I'm trying to get a garage sale Garmin GPS 90 going and it won't acquire
satellites.
It starts saying "SVA Cycle 9607 20 June 96 to 18 July 96".
1996 was a while ago. Is there something in this unit that needs to be
updated?

Boeing 307 Starting Up! by
Jay Honeck
A guy named "Oshkosh Jerry" has posted an absolutely stunning MP3 file of
the gorgeous Boeing 307 Clipper starting up at Oshkosh. It's over on the
binary channel, "alt.binaries.pictures.aviation".
It's a huge download, but well worth it for anyone who loves the sound of
four big round engines...

Suunto watches by
K i t W â l k e r
Slightly OT but has anyone ever used a Suunto watch while flying?
I'm thinking about getting one for my climbing /skiing etc. and it
dawned on me that the 3' altimeter (supposedly accurate to 29000')
might be a handy back-up.
Just wondering
Cheers,
Kit

MMU ramp fee by
Peter Gottlieb
Just returned from Oshkosh to NY. Due to some "interesting" weather along
the route, it took 2 days and multiple stops, with some legs having to be
IFR.
Every FBO along the way was super, and at virtually all of them I bought
either fuel or something else.
However, at MMU, where I wanted to make...

Online radio primer? by

I'm about to make my first cross country outside of our comfortable New
England airspace where flight following is pretty much automatic and you
just keep tuning in the next frequency they give you.
I'm not sure if things will be the same out in the wilds of western New York
and Ohio. Can anyone...

VOTE ...HTML or Plain Text??? by

I was surprised by the acceptance of an HTML post in another thread. I, for
one, could read the HTML fine. Others said the same thing.
Has the time come for HTML in the newsgroup(s)?
My (change is bad - we fear change) vote is no HTML ... for now.
