One of the questions in the FAA exam (I don't have the number in front of me) Shows a panel where the altimeter and VSI are both still and the Airspeed is very low. The Attitude indicator looks normal for pitch. The "Correct" answer is that the pitot system or the airspeed indicator has...

I use Jeppensen's FlightPro to maintain my instrument scan because I just don't get enough real IMC time. The one thing I don't like about it is when you break out, there is no ground information at all. The ground is simply an all green field. The airport is nothing more than a black stripe...

Instrument rated pilot (Joe), without complex endorsement, acts as a safety pilot for another instrumented rated pilot (Bob), in Bob's complex airplane. Reg's regarding "general" safety piloting state that both can log PIC time, given an agreement is made that the safety pilot is responsible for...

I had a bizarre problem on my KLN94. The display itself is totally fine (i.e. the moving map shows everything correctly, all pixels are OK); however, on almost all other text pages, there is information missing. For example, the groundspeed is not showing on the NAV page, or a frequency on an APT...

The USAF terps guy Timothy Lovell sent John Haggerty (FAA terps guy) a response to his query about the question I asked here, about the odd step-down on the LOC vs LOC/DME versions of this approach. For those not playing along at home, the LOC has a MDA of 900 feet, and the LOC/DME has an MDA of...

There used to be takeoff minimums where a turn was required as soon as possible after takeoff for obstacle avoidance reasons. Anyone know if any such still exist or if they have all been phased out? Michael

I am out of currency on my IFR flying and wanted to go to an intensive 1 or 2 day IFR IPC course. Probably one that uses a simulator extensively. I fly a Piper Turbo Saratoga. I've heard is a good school in Vegas and thought the pilot said it was flight safety but I called Flight Safety today...

This is from AvionicsWest: "WAAS for the GNS430/530 is now postponed until sometime in 2006. I don't "think" the problem is really a WAAS issue. You see, Garmin plans on making the 430/530 comply with TSO 146 just as the GNS480. TSO 146 requires an update rate of 5hz verses 1hz as the product...

I am thinking seriously about getting the GNS480 and need opinions to (try and) change my mind. The GNS 430 is nice but the 480 has more features that I like. Anybody using one and making approaches? With autopilot? with GPSS? Does GPS altitude REALLY work?

I am an electronics engineer and I though a good project would be to build an aircraft tranceiver. Has anyone got any good schematics or ideas ? Thanks s

Hi! I have a KMD 150 and would like to share some experience and infos about this unit. Who else is using this GPS in Europe? cu Maik

Flyers, I was flying IFR in VFR conditions and from NJ to Kissimmee, FL (KISM). As I was approaching KISM the controller asked if I wanted to do a visual approach or the ILS. Since I was in unfamiliar surroundings and wanted to practice an ILS I said, "I'll take the ILS." As I waited for the...

Subject line says it all. If so, what was your impression?

If so I will be in Anchorage, AK Friday afternoon! Departing PAMR Saturday

I am a current user of Destination Direct and it is a great program. I also purchased some Maptech CD's for charts and the moving map feature using a GPS is awsome. The only downside is you cannot print out the sectionals along your route with DD. The printing feature of the sectionals using DD...

I'm considering getting the Terrain Awareness MCC card, for my 2000c and wondering if any of the list members have installed this upgrate. A third party, (non-compensated) review or or opinions would be very helpfull for our list members who are considering getting of these. What do you think of...

Can someone be kind enough to email me the instrument approach and Flight Supplement page for two Toronto airports (City Center and Buttonville)? Scanned images would be great. I am leaving on a trip this week and did not realize that buying charts from Canada will take at least a week by...

I'm a long time AWM user and have been very satisfied to date. I will be upgrading to weather sometime near the end of the year. I have a friend who is looking to purchase something now. I've steered him to the AWM + XM WX solution, but both of us would like to see it in use before laying out a...
