Now let's take 91.175. The USA mandates the use of a published IAP. The UK does not. 91.1 says p91 does not apply outside the USA. Does this mean one can fly an unpublished IAP in the UK? I don't see anything in 91.1 saying that it does not apply outside the US. It says that it does...

Just heard that a small aircraft busted the DC prohibited are, and they evacuated the White House and Capitol Building. Some poor ******* ain't going to be aviating for a while.

One of my best IFR flights ever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeNt0CZWvWk Skirting the edges of Tropical Storm Fay going to Oxford MS and return. Video includes maps of Flight Aware showing my progress both up and back with radar overlay Video does not do it any justice on the feeling of...

It's a problem in Bonanzas & Barons. Heated fuel vents are an option on some Barons. You can tell it's happening by noting the fuel gauges. They go UP! The bladder sucks up from the tank and deflects the outbound level sender when the vents are blocked. You need a plan to be on the ground.

It IS possible for an instructor to give dual instruction without logging (or being) PIC. In one instance, I did some instrument training in my aero-club's Grumman Tiger. The instrument instructor I used was not yet checked out in the aircraft type in the club. So, from a club insurance point...

The New and Enlightened Federal Aviation Administration of the Bush Administration has stated on many occasions they want to run more like a "Business" and be more receptive to the airlines and the airline business model. Really? OK IF AIRLINES SOLD PAINT Customer: Hi. How much is your...

On one of my $100.00 hamburger flights my VOR-Glideslope went in op. Worked fine until I landed then at take of it would not register. I visually checked the antenna, but every thing seemed to be OK. That afternoon I flew to my avionics shop for a check up. Of course my plane is due for the 24...

Last weekend I flew IFR Paine to Eugene. I filed V23, but was cleared to the west along OLM V165 UBG V495 CVO EUG. Similar routing for the return flight. I asked each controller (except Seattle Approach) for vectors EUG direct when able, but each controller said they needed to keep me on the...

I just wanted to inform Seattle area pilots about a new school that started in Renton Municipal Airport. We are AcuWings, a family owned business. The reason we started the school is because we felt the void in Renton Airport for an alternative outfit. We currently have a Piper Tomahawk that is a...

Has anyone else noticed that the new v4.0 software for the Garmin 196 adds "support for Obstacle database"? Does anyone know what this means? Sounds like a potentially valuable upgrade to part of my existing IFR flight bag. Hmmm...

test mess.

I recently installed a Garmin GDL 49 to receive weather reports from satellite (Echoflight subscription). I was disappointed that we only were in contact with the satellite for 60% of the time. In particular, we were not able to get reports just as we needed them...as we were approaching IFR...

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

We are getting a brand new ILS 26 at KANE and I just downloaded the plate. The miss is what I expected to see and is a hold at the GEP "Gopher" VOR a few miles to the west. But there is also a hold depicted at the PNM NDB, which is a long ways away. That hold is not mentioned on the plate. I...
