Track, Bearing, Course, Heading by
[email protected]
Hello,
I'm sure I should know the difference between all of these... but it
kinda starts to blur together. I'm sure there are others on here who'd
like a refresher. Anyone out there want to explain the differences to
us?

Carb Heat OFF, Flaps UP, Cowl flaps closed

Unusual Vacuum system indication, please help explain. by
Al
Hi Group.
I had a trip Friday in a 1977 C-337G(pressurized). On the taxi out I
noticed the suction gauge was pegged high. The AI erected ok, but the DG
required many updates on the way to the run-up area. Pulling on to the
runway, we corrected the DG again, by 30 degrees.
We flew VFR to Boise, and...

I'm a fairly low time instrument pilot, and I plan to fly my

have never flown in the Houston area. What routing can I expect in a

overnight stop in...

Flying through Canadian airspace by
M
I'll take a few flights between Rochester, NY and the Detroit area this
summer. Going through the Canadian airspace just seems so much
shorter. I can go IFR.
My questions is:
* I don't need to deal with customs at all, as long as I don't stop at
Canada, right?
* Do I need to use the ICAO...

IPC Preperation by
Jeffrey
Greetings all;
What do you recommend for preparation for an Instrument Proficiency Check?
Is there any written or video material that is specifically geared for this,
or is the original IFR training material better?
Thanks for any insight!

Which Indicator for KLN-89b by
N7936T
I bought a kln 89b.
I have a MK12d driving a ID-824, a KX-170 driving a KI-214, and a
yellow taged Arc IN-385a sitting on the self.
I have a NAT multi pole relay, annunicator lights and switches.
First choice would be to share the ID-824 between the MK12d and the
89b?
If none of these will work,...

Peter R.
I actually received this comment today from an FSS (US Flight service)
specialist when I called for an IFR flight briefing for a flight from
Boston back to Syracuse, NY, early this afternoon. The Bridgeport FSS
specialist was not joking either. He went on to say that too often pilots

AUTOPILOT PROS & CONS by
STICKMONKE
I got my IFR rating 7 months ago. I use the KAP140 autopilot a lot. From
climb-out to MDA/DA. I find it really helps in my management of the plane
and the IFR flight. I am interested in comments regarding the pros and cons
of a heavy use/reliance on the autopilot.
