Departure Procedure jStumper Question by
[email protected]
Take a look at Salmon Idaho KSMN, Ahehu 1 RNAV Dept (Obstacle). I
realize few aircraft are equipped to fly this, however;

2. Why is the stipulation "at" instead of...

Practicing my scan by
Paul Tomblin
When I don't fly IFR for a period of time, I don't seem to have any
problem with approaches or procedures or the usual stuff, but my scan goes
to hell. After looking over at the GPS or down at the chart and finding
myself in a 40 degree bank, I tend to turn on the autopilot and leave it
on until...

Vacuum pump power source? by
Terence Wilson
Hello,
I was wondering how the primary vacuum is powered in a single engined
aircraft. If it was powered directly by the engine, a engine failure
would result in the immediate loss of attitude indicator and heading
indicator. So I guess most aircraft use an electrical pump that can be
driven by...

Facilities are important for Air Safety by
WhoGivesAFig?
Contrary to what most of the non-technical idiots in FAA
management think, facilities are important for Air Safety
Systems to check for a dangerous weather condition were
faulty at the time of Sunday's devastating air crash at
Phuket airport, Thai officials say. Some of the airport's

A gaggle of questions about traning from an old geezer... by
SimGuy
Hello everyone,
After gaining by ticket in 1993 at KOAK my logbook was moth-balled and
I haven't flown again until last month. After regaining currency I
would like to try and ascend through the tiers and maybe, one day,
hold a Commercial License with Instrument rating. I currently have 85
hours...

Panel Ergonomy by
Airbus
I am used to flying planes with KX-155/155a and/or G430/530. In either
case, your OBS and VOR indicator are separate from the frequency select
unit. Add to this the fact that many panels are set up with the DME

Trimble TL1000 GPS Questions by
Jim Carter[_1_]
I can't seem to find any significant data on the web about this panel
mounted GPS. Even Southeast Avionics website has very little information
about the Trimble product line and they usually are an excellent
