(MDST) to various outlying areas of Haiti. Typically, flying would begin at
MDST around daybreak and end after dark. Now that the stage is set, here is

First, let me thank all of those (in rec.aviation.student at least!) who

Guy Elden Jr.
Well, after enduring the blisteringly cold, icy, snowy, and windy winter
we've had up here in the Northeast, I _finally_ managed to get in some real,
honest to goodness, solid IFR practice!
It's been a couple of months since my last real instrument flight, but

IFR Alternate Requirement by
gwengler
To my knowledge, in the US one must file an alternate IFR airport
regardless of the weather if the destination airport does not have an
IFR approach. Can someone please quote me the FAA regulation where
this is actually spelled out? Thanks!

Another Weird KLN94 Problem by

I had a bizarre problem on my KLN94. The display itself is totally
fine (i.e. the moving map shows everything correctly, all pixels are
OK); however, on almost all other text pages, there is information
missing. For example, the groundspeed is not showing on the NAV page,
or a frequency on an APT...

ASA On Top 9? by
Hamish Reid
I realise it's only been released for a few days, but as I'm in the
market for a non-MS sim, and as I have an older version that works just
fine but needs updating so it can do real GPS, etc., does anyone have
anything to say one way or another about ASA's new On Top 9?
Thanks,
Hamish
