Ok, here's something I noticed running up to State College yesterday. about 20 miles south of State College there's a class E transition area with no airport in the middle of it (there's Stottle Mem 02P, I think that's a hospital helipad on the edge of it, but I don't think that's the reason for...

I used to have Cheap *******s software and a palm. While not perfect it was much better than nothing. Is there anything available now that is even remotely similar? I can't justify thousands of dollars but I might be able to purchase some sort of palm type thing if I can also use it for work. I...

FYI. I noticed that some airports are not showing up in the "nearest airport" list on my King KLN-94. Then I noticed that it didn't show on the map page either. But if I go to the airport page and explicitly key in the identifier, it does show the airport information. E.g. KMKN I corresponded...

OK...What's up with the Flight Service Stations... ? Lately (3-6 months) I have found them to be grumpy and very unhelpful. They come across as condescending and expect you to take what drool they deliver without question or review and be thankful.....please don't even think of asking a...

Please ignore my lack of detailed knowledge of TERPS type stuff but are there any US airports with GPS approaches where there are buildings inside the lateral protected zone? Supposedly if an airport does not meet such criteria there may be a way to get a waiver using some sort of...

We are beginning upgrades of some club airplanes and want to put training software on one of the flight planning computers. I have downloaded the free package from Garmin but would like to consider options that are more tutorial and not just a simulator. I see that Sporty's lists some...

Flyers, If anyone is interested in Barry Schiff's Proficient Flying DVD (3 DVD Set) I am selling mine on EBay. http://tinyurl.com/9ez2e As most of you may know I have been selling my DVD's and I'm now quite familiar with what's out there in this market. I have to say that *this* set was one of...

I'm trying to figure out the right way to use the AP for an ILS. The manual isn't clear on this situation. Assume that I have a vector to intercept the localizer and have been cleared for the approach. Let's say that the intercept angle is less than 45 degrees. I'm starting in HDG & ALT hold...

Hi everyone.! This is my first time on this site I would like to tell what I really like this project "Aviation Usenet Newsgroups" I've been reading it for a while, and I have learned so much here So, I decided to try my luck asking a few questions... How can you IM, PM or whatever you call it...

A friend of mine is thinking of going to Peru...does anybody know of a good web site for researching Peruvian Airspace? thanks

It is apparently not possible to communicate with you directly, so let me explain how I got the 1.4 miles of protected airspace on the non-maneuvering side of procedure turn airspace, and apologize for being wrong...the protected airspace is 4.0 miles wide, giving the pilot even less reason to work...

I just tried calling the Covington/Cincinnati Watch Desk and business telephone numbers, both have been changed. That's typical for the Federal Government telephone system. Try the telephone numbers on the list before you need them. There is no date associated with the published list on the Atlas...

I just registered on the FAA website and got a reservation into SSI, St Simons Island, GA. They required on for the Superbowl in Jax. I got the number, but what do I do with it - put it in the remarks of my flight plan, or just keep it handy? I can't find any info on it. Thanks!

Hello NG, I am looking for thoughts on panel-mount HF radios that are not Dzus-rail mounted and that work on 12 Volt. What is out there?

I recently got a tablet PC, HP TC1100, and a little bluetooth GPS receiver to go with it. Rode in the back seat of an Arrow this afternoon and played for a couple of hours with the APIC software. Lots of warts on APIC, one of which was missing airports. I'm in the Minneapolis area and just west...
