Went flying with a firend of mine who has this installed in his aircraft. Question When we have the auopilot on with Nav mode clicked On the 530 we have GPS in the window, shouldn't the aitpilot follow the 530 Flight plan or direct to or approach selected course? Well it did not had to use...

Can you use a safety pilot for long XC or does it need to be a CFII?? Walt

Dear Traders, One thing is fore sure, good value stocks will never fall like Amazon.com or Yahoo! during the perfect storm of the internet hype. To give you a small hint about Google, you have to look at the heavy insider trading in this stock. Stocks with the value of more than 15 Billion...

It's been just about a year since I had gotten my IFR ticket, and have over 250 hours since, about 25 hours in actual. But, my personal minimums have been 1000 ft and 3 miles. Today (Knoxville, TN) we had perfect conditions to safely fly in the soup. (NO ICE) I got my instructor on board and we...

http://w3n-a.blogspot.com/2008/12/stalls.html A stall occurs when the smooth airflow over the airplane's wing is disrupted, and the lift degenerates rapidly. This is caused when the wing exceeds its critical angle of attack. This can occur at any airspeed, in any attitude, with any power...

http://w3n-a.blogspot.com/2008/12/secondary-stall.html This stall is called a secondary stall since it may occur after a recovery from a preceding stall. It is caused by attempting to hasten the completion of a stall recovery before the airplane has regained sufficient flying speed. When this...

In contact (VFR) flying, flying by attitude means visually establishing the airplane's attitude with reference to the natural horizon. Attitude is the angular difference measured between an airplane's axis and the line of the Earth's...

One airport I frequently use in the northeast has adopted an improvement plan which includes, along with a slight runway extension, the installation of a Transponder Landing System. The airport is currently served by a VOR approach and a GPS approach, but terrain considerations would almost...

Well JEPP has released a free app for JeppView on the iPad (free if you already have a subscription, of course). There are plenty of reviews out there for different tablets serving as EFB's, but from what I've seen the reviews focus on functions and navigation ease. I have not seen any serious...

Greetings, First off, please tell me if this is the right forum for newer-minted IR pilots to discuss approach questions? If so, have a look at this one : http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0808/00382G22.PDF GPS22, KSCH. I believe there is an error in the hold in lieu of PT, which cannot be both...

Thanks to all for previous helpful replies. Here's a departure question. (Those who do not fly real airplanes under IFR need not feel compelled to reply): I'm departing a non-towered field IFR, let's stay East Coast, and say Bennington (KDDH), departing eastbound. There is a published departure...

Who knows something about 50KHz spacing for glideslope receptors? Traditionally we have 40 GS frequencies, with 150KHz spacing from 329.15MHz to 335 MHz. But I see European ILS's requiring "50KHz Glideslope spacing". Anyone know what receptors do this? Or why we would want to do this? 8.33...

Anyone know of an instrument ground school scheduled to begin soon in the NYC metro area or in CT?

I've been lurking here for a while, and I thought I'd share my experiences on the instrument checkride today, as they may be useful to someone. This was my 1st attempt (I did an unofficial evaluation checkride with the examiner a few days prior). I fly a Cessna 172S out of PAO. My examiner today...
