How to ACCURATELY measure fuel/gas in a single-engine piston aircraft? by NoSpam

Night Vision by Homer J. Simpson
I was just at the sportys website looking for one of those mini red LED lights. One of the sidebars claims that, "These keychain flashlights emit a bright red beam or a bright white beam that illuminates well, yet does not affect night vision." I've been taught that white light destroys...

"Taliban Doors" by EDR
Has anyone heard the stories from airline pilots of 767 aircraft about the placement of the unlock switch for the mandated "Taliban Doors"? On at least one aircarrier, they are next to the fuel cutoff switches. Care to guess how many times the wrong switch has been flipped after they were first...

Sneaking across Lake Superior undetected by Henry Kisor
All: Can a 172 flying at 200 feet above water across Lake Superior get through undetected by radar or AWACS? Are there holes in radar coverage?

unusual flying jobs by Dave Jacobowitz
I've been thinking a lot about taking a break from my current career to do some flying. I have no interest in being an airline pilot, and I know that flying is not otherwise lucrative (or even in the airline case for many pilots.) I'm relatively unencumbered (no wife, kids, or mortgage), have some...
