Hey guys, Beware of this new strain of spring-time bug that's going around. Here's what happened to a guy that got it. Intoxicating Wild Blue Temporary Madness He knew it was foolish. He knew it was dumb. But it was just that kind of new spring day when the flower pistils squirted into the...

Finally got my BFR done. It ran out on me 12/31/03. I did the ground part on 12/28, then we went to fly, couldn't get the plane started, dead battery, finally did by jumping it. Taxied to the run-up area, did the run up. CFI thought I had turned "off" the key, the mag was that bad. We gave it...

Took my 13th BFR last night. Got to wondering how long ago BFR's were first required. Anyone know? -- Gene Seibel Hangar 131 - http://pad39a.com/gene/plane.html Because I fly, I envy no one.

If your medical is lapsed (but in the works - waiting on paperwork), can you log dual with a CFI towards a BFR? You're not a student pilot, but you can't exercise the privs of your PPL because of the expired medical. Is the CFI considered the PIC, or are you? Or do the FARs consider you a...

My BFR was due in June, so I figured I'd get it out of the way a little early so I wouldn't have to possibly ground myself. I scheduled for Saturday, but the weather was looking marginal (I'm VFR only). Saturday morning rolled around, TAF called for IMC. So I called my instructor to get his...

Well, I lived through my biennial torture session yet again. One hour of ground-grilling on Friday, followed by 1.2 hours of flight testing yesterday. We had a great time (my CFI on this flight was a good friend, which always makes things easier) and I think I'm about as proficient as I've...

A few years since I've flown but I suppose my CFI friend couldn't tell. I've flown a Beech Debonair but it's been around 15 years ago as a student at Le Tourneau University. I got acquainted with a CFI who's a friend of a friend who said he'd be able to give me all the ground and flight...

Pinging the group for an answer here. Scenario: Up for flight review, elect to have instruction in a taildragger for the purpose of the flight review. Have a PP-ASEL, but do NOT have a one time endorsement in tailwheel aircraft that permits one to be PIC. The regs say you must take the flight...

Bi-Ennual Flight Review (BFR) with ATC COMS - Video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjRO3BoBPRA I was rather ambitious on what I wanted to review during this flight of one being how to operate the King GPS for approaches. Interestingly enough, that was the only thing I could not do since the GPS...

We are looking for free plans to download, or anything similar, to build a bi-plane for a person to fly. Not a model, a real bi-plane! Can anyone help?

Yesterday was clear, in the 60s (in November in Iowa!), and -- best of all -- our day off. With the kids in school, and the plane fully fueled, it was off to...where? Prairie du Chein, sitting at the confluence of the Mississippi and Wisconsin Rivers, beckoned, with its beautiful approaches,...

http://wcco.com/local/local_story_287083948.html (WCCO) St. Paul "At least four state senators want to know if Minnesota taxpayers paid way too much for an airplane purchased by the state and if the plane was even needed. The 2005 Beechcraft Bonanza cost $727,000, but a Minnesota company said...

I've been thinking about going sometime this spring, but the thought of driving five hours from Midland or El Paso just isn't appealing. Has anyone flown any closer? It looks like there is an airport in Terlingua, which I'm guessing is the closest you can get. Anyone been there?
