How high do you normally fly a Cessna 172. Have only been flying on sea level airport and now will be flying on airports at aprox 7500' . To get from one place to the other I might have to climb to 12500'. Do you think that a 172 is able to do that?

Just about all of the major (USA) pilot shops on the web use a "minimum advertised price" for headsets. The actual price for a popular headset, such as Lightspeed or David Clark are not readily available on the website. Instead you only find out the real price after actually ordering or requesting...

Hi All! We do not have a wiring diagram (yet) for our plane. The Cigar Lighter socket is dead, and we need to fix it to power our new portable GPS. (or have a poower cable installed....) Which 12V point (bus) should it be wired to? (dont want to unwrap the harness to check out the wiring. )

I just now have had time to set down and relate part of it. Here it is. Three days of perfect flying weather while I had...

Our flight school is currently trying to move to an online, internet based scheduling system, using a service provided by "MyFBO". The idea is to schedule via the internet (even when standing at the counter at the flight school) for all flights that occur after the current day. Every morning, the...
