YES! Passed the check ride by
Kevin Clarke
Whew. Well that was a grind.
After 17 mos of training I took the check ride today. It got scrubbed a
couple of time because of weather, winds once, snow once. The day
started with a flight from KFIT down to KSFZ to meet the examiner.
Beautiful flight 24 minutes or so down to Rhode Island. Winds...

IFR in A/C with Single Nav by
Rugby51
I am a relatively new CFII looking for some advice. I am starting an instrument student in a 172 that is bare bones IFR. The plane has a single nav with glideslope, a VFR GPS installation, and no ADF or DME. I haven't flown the plane on an IFR flight yet, but it seems that the way to make it...

Logbook in Review by
[email protected]
Just finished my first logbook and my first entry of my second logbook
is today. It all started in 2001, hard to believe it's been seven
years.
I have compressed those seven SHORT years to 3 minutes, 1 second, a
compilation of my accomplishments in the aviation...

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?

looking for a project by
Dave[_16_]
Hi all,
I'm taking a break from the corporate world and want to make something.
I'm looking for suggestions that could make your aviation life easier.
Is there a electronic gadget or widget that would make your flying or
airplane experience better?

FAA out of control by

According to press reports to date, no less than 6, perhaps
more, commercial jet aircraft potentially carrying hundreds
of passengers per trip and sometimes on multiple trips per
day - had cracks in them. Had cracks in them. And people at
the FAA, and Southwest, knew it. And the planes had...

Government/Jepp Plate Comparison by
rps
I've been away from flying for a while. I stopped flying at around the
time the government plates were rumored to be changing to a new format.
I used to use Jepps.
I picked up flying again recently. The pilot's store I went to was out
of the Jepp express packs, so I decided to give the...

61 Cessna 210 40 SMOH For Auction by
Victor Bravo
I just listed another 1961 Cessna 210A on ebay for auction. This one
has 40 since major overhaul on the engine, accessories, systems, and
one year since new paint and leather interior. Reserve price is less
that 2/3 of the AOPA appraisal value, so you can fly away with a no-
problems at a very...

Rolling a Non Aerobat 150 by
Jose
I have to ask why you feel it's
reasonable to turn this guy in to the FSDO but not to copy license
plate numbers of speeders and turn them in.
I didn't make the post, but I do have some reasons.
Way back when... when I was learning to fly and learning how the regs
worked, it was made clear...

Garmin 296 by
[email protected]
I've used a 295 for aviation purposes since it came out and a Street
Pilot III for auto trips.
Recently, issues developed with reestablishing the update chain for the
SP III road map software.
So, I decided to upgrade to a 296, which does "trains, planes, and
automobiles." (Actually, aviation,...

Instrument PTS vs. GPS AFM -- who wins? by
Roy Smith
I just noticed an interesting problem with the Instrument Rating PTS. It
says:
Aircraft and Equipment Required for the Practical Test
GPS equipment must contain the current database.
The problem is that not all GPS units require that the database be current.
The CNX-80 AFM Supplement...

Playing with the Garmin GNS430/530 WAAS simulator by
Peter R.
As an owner of a Garmin GNS430 who will most likely upgrade to the WAAS
capability, I downloaded and installed the Garmin GNSxxx WAAS simulator
last night, then "flew" a couple of RNAV/GPS approaches with LPV minimums.

430W/When does the glideslope register by
scott moore
Keep in mind I tried out my new 430W install for
the first time today.
I tried a few sample approaches, really outstanding.
The 430W makes you want to try full (not vectored)
approaches because it essentially automates everything.
It will hold on the approach hold, start the approach
on its own...

Boredom at the FSS by

Yes, I would think that responding, even to a false alarm, would be a
lot more fun than sitting and playing cards all day.
Sometimes when I phone the FSS for a wx briefing, I get a long-winded
description and analysis of the wx...
