I am heading for Sun 'n Fun from Ohio in April and will file IFR over 3 flight legs. This will be my first flight heading South under instrument rules.. My heading will change from West of South to East of South several times during each leg of this flight. The question is do I file for even or...

Going direct IFR at Canada by M[_1_]
I'm planning a trip later this year that would go from KANJ (Sault Ste Marie, MI) to KART (Watertown, NY), IFR and mostly through the Canadian airspace, in a U.S. registered single engine Grumman. Going IFR is mostly to make the two border crossing easier. I have previously overflew Canadian...

Altimeter off by kevmor
How can you adjust an altimeter if the pressure isn't correct in the window for the altitude? I started talking to my examiner about it on the checkride and he said that a lot of people adjust it themselves (not an avionics shop, etc), and he said you take the front off (I think) and theres a...

The nail in the coffin: TIS and Mode-S by scott moore
Mode-S/TIS transponders cost more, turns out, they cost substantially more to certify for IFR as well. I'm beginning to come around to the viewpoint of those here who say that any modernization that comes from the FAA will usually be a costly waste of time. The FAA is abandoning TIS slowly, and...

How do controllers coordinate clearances through sectors? by Robert M. Gary
I'm curious, how does one controller secure a direct clearance through mulitple other controllers' areas? Sometimes it seems that after a handoff the receiving controller doesn't know what your clearance is (but certainly must have that area available for you). As a typical example, I was flying...

mystery of the colored flashing lights by [email protected]
Sorry for being a little off topic, but I think you will see why this group is a good one for this post. On Feb 18, 2007, I visited a pilot who lives in the Oakland, CA hills about 5 nm north of KOAK. He related a story of having seen multicolored flashing lights in the air at night in the...

8710 for CFII by Steven Barnes
I hate to admit it, but I'm not sure which boxes to check on the 8710 for my upcoming CFII checkride. *My* CFI is away for a couple days & I just wanted to get the IACRA app filled out ahead of time. For the initial ride, I checked Airplane Single Engine, Flight Instructor & "Initial". Would this...

Dreaming STARS by [email protected]
Was I dreaming? Or did I once hear that RNP 1 and 2 stars/sids had been published in the USA? I see type A and B, but these are RNAV, and so must have no RNP requirement whatsoever, and can be flown by any /G aircraft. Anyone provide some info? Stan

Winds on approach by kevmor
I flew yesterday and did some practice approaches, and the winds were about 20 knots gusting to 26-28. I've flown almost all approaches so far in a different 172 that had a 180hp conversion. Because of the winds, I kept almost full cruising power on the descents to try and maintain my normal 90...

King autopilot and GPS approaches by Viperdoc[_4_]
I went and did some LNAV/VNAV approaches yesterday with a King KFC 200 autopilot. Looking for some tips with these autopilots on GPS approaches. 1. In NAV or APP mode the commanded rate of turn appears slower than in HEADING mode. Spinning the HSI to the desired heading (often 90 degree...

Radar coverage in Canada by BobKK47
My understanding is that radar coverage in western Canada is fairly sparse, but what about at the higher altitudes, say FL 220 and above. Thanks for any information. Bob

Unclear Clearance by Travis Marlatte
This didn't cause any problems other than some additional radio traffic but it caught me off guard. Let me know what you think... I flew PWK (just north of O'Hare) to D95 (Lapeer just east of Flint, Michigan). Went VFR across the lake but then encountered reduced vis and lowering ceilings so I...

Autopilot use during approach by kevmor
I'm curious, why don't they let you use it with the landing lights? If your POH supplement for the autopilot has operating limitations, it isn't legal to use contrary to those limitations. Mine doesn't allow use of the autopilot with the landing lights on, for example. You won't find...
