Google Earth Question by
john smith[_2_]
Is it possible to build an automated flight path file for download onto
Google Earth?
An example would be patch and altitude for the RIPON Arrival into KOSH.
If Google ever gets around to upadating that area to high res, it would
be a good addition to the AirVenture website for those who do not...

Mx is now forging other peoples monikers - beware! by
CRaSH
Mx has forged my moniker on several postings in the sim group, so if you see
someone post something uncharacteristic for that particular individual,

Next up for Garmin Portables by
Marco Leon
Soon after the GPSMAP 496 came out, there was lots of chatter about what
they will be doing next. It seems their newly-released Marine portables are
providing a hint. http://www.garmin.com/products/gpsmap525/
Two words: satellite imagery
This has some value (if somewhat limited) for boats but...

Late BFR by
Anonymous coward #673
I fly through an organization that requires a proficiency check ride
every six months. As a result I somehow got it into my head that I
didn't need to worry about BFR's any more. But today my instructor
reminded me that a BFR requires an hour of ground instruction, so
technically I have not...

A real life pilot's first sim experience by
Tony
The deal is this: I wanted to fly a loop in my M20J for a long time,
but it's hard to get around the 30 degree pitch limitation
certifications and do a loop. isn't it?
MSFS2004 offers an M20M Bravo! And Comp USA is selling that program
for less than $20.
So the four disks came in a couple of days...

Kevin Clarke
Hi,
I'm flying into NYC this week and had a couple of questions for folks.
First off, I need to stay overnight, any preference on FBO in terms of
leaving the plane. I know Signature to be top notch. Any others on the
field that are worth working with?
Second, I am going to go in VFR...

Aviation Medical "Fraud" by

How is it that airmen are able to hide their medical conditions from

Aviation in television shows, question.. by
Jim Stewart
Back in the early 60's I remember watching a television
show that featured military jets, test pilots and fighter
missions. It was in black and white and I think it ran

missed an episode.
I can distinctly remember curled-toed X-2 landings,...

Aircraft as mobile homes by
Mxsmanic
I was thinking today, first about independent truck drivers, then about those
people who sell (almost) all they own and buy a huge RV. In the case of truck

and other amenities that make their trucks a kind of home away...
