Garmin 496 - TAWS any good for Europe by
Thomas Borchert
Peter,
I am wondering whether the European terrain database is any good.
First, the nitpick ;-) It is not TAWS, but a terrain database. TAWS is
something certified.
Second: Both the units from Garmin (296 and up) and those from Lowrance
(Airmap 600c and 2000c) come in a...

plate question by
Andrey Serbinenko
After looking at the ILS-Z approach in NC that was discussed here some time
ago, I was curious how many similar approaches there are, and if they all
are military. Thanks to the uniform naming NACO uses for its chart files,
it was fairly easy to get a list of all the ILS-Z approaches: there...

Attitude Indicator by
KP
Every time I get in the aircraft and before I start the engine I notice
the attitude indicator is displaying a nose down and a left turn. Why
is that? Is there something wrong with the instrument and is near
failure?

Interesting "ILS or RNAV" procedure by
JPH
Hadn't seen one of these before, but it's an ILS procedure that requires
GPS for the Initials, Intermediates, non-precision FAF, and missed
approach. Of course if you don't have ILS, no problem, just fly the RNAV
(GPS).

How can we "fix" LEX to prevent wrong runway selection everywhere? by
Jim Carter
I've followed the lengthy and somewhat heated discussion speculating
responsibility in the LEX accident, but I've not seen any thread on
improvements other than a few comments about traffic lights on runways,
or more people added to the system to double-check the double-checkers.
I'm interested in...

What to do? by
Everett M. Greene
The ongoing "discussion" of the LEX accident reminds me
of an incident I experienced many years ago of potential
pilot error. I was a passenger on commercial flight on
a smaller airplane (make and model not recalled but it
was twin-engine turboprop). As we were making the
approach to land, I...

GNS430 Restore Defaults? by

My new airplane has dual GNS430s, and I would like to start out with a clean
slate on them.
Is there a way to reset the entire unit to factory defaults, clearing all
flight plans and user waypoints at the same time?

GPS can substitute for the ADF. Radar can substitute also.
So, if the acft has no ADF or the NDB is OTS, so, it could

Are birds IFR? by
Kevin Clarke
Here's a whacky question.
I just flew my 250NM IFR x-ctry. The last leg was IMC, bouncing along at
5000'. So the question I have is, do birds ever fly in the clouds?
There are many birds at my home airport (KFIT). I got enough stuff to
worry about during an IAP, I'd hate to get a bird strike...
