Now (as a result of FSS privatization) that's so difficult to reach FSS, and the personnel you reach haven't a clue, the time is right for this: GUARD LAUNCHES SEE AND AVOID WEB SITE There is now a one-stop Web site (http://www.seeandavoid.org/) for information on special-use...

This debacle represents more documentary proof that Blakey and her cronies have utterly destroyed another component of the world’s largest, safest air traffic control system. The promised savings will never materialize. The bill for privatizing this thing just keeps getting bigger and bigger...

I was reading about Twin Otters in Wikipedia, and I see that production stopped in 1988, but the article doesn't explain why. The airplane looks like it was (and is) pretty popular, so why did the company stop making them?

Hello All, Sorry for ranting but: Last Friday, I was at Burnet, TX (BMQ) in light drizzle at 6:00am and was trying to get an IFR clearance out of there. There was a cell a few miles West of the airport moving towards the airport with a lot of nasty stuff behind it. I was pre-flighted and ready...

Have you ever wondered what all those pretty colors on the various radar maps you see mean and compare to the different sources? See the link below. http://www.davegwinn.com/Radar%20Chart.html Dave writes a column in IFR that explains how things work.

I went to an airshow south of Dallas during the last half of the 1970's.... I'm guessing 1978. Rockwell International sponsored a flight display with both a P-51 and a Commander. I remember being astounded that a business twin could perform like that. From what I remember of the performance, it...

Some passes through the Sierras in California are obvious from the roads that go through them, examples being near Lake Tahoe (Hwy 50 and Interstate 80) and Tioga Pass Road (Hwy 120) through Yosemite. My question is what other passes, not marked by roads, are people using? What are their altitudes...

Every time I fly one of my real airplanes, I get bugs on the windshield and wings. I'm confused about this because MSFS doesn't have bugsplats on the screen. What is wrong with my real airplanes? How do I avoid getting bugs on the windshield? There must be something wrong with reality, because...

Hi Gang, In the next couple of weeks I'll be working with a fellow to finish his private in a C-170B. Does anyone have any notes, tricks, or gotchas I should know about? I have taildragger time in everything from a Quickie to a Lodestar, but haven't flown the 170 for 28 years. Al G

A few days ago I was getting ready to do a cross country with one of my students. This was going to be his first cross country, so the focus was going to be on pilotage, dead reckoning, planning, cockpit management, and stuff like that. I was going to save the flight following, flight plan, class C...

The tire on my Baron looks low. This is impossible, since in MSFS there is no need to put air in tires. Is there a switch on the panel that inflates the tires? If so, where is it located? Can anyone explain this anomaly?

After seven years and 900+ hours of faithful service, my sweet-flying Cutlass RG 9387D has left for her new home in Texas. "Delta" carried family home for the holidays in Houston, took Angel Flight patients to medical care from Jacksonville to Tulsa and everywhere in between, enabled me to...

When I went to renew my medical last week, I realized that I had just introduced a discrepancy in the system: I always bring along copies of the previous years 8500-8 forms to avoid introducing inadvertently unwanted discrepancies -- administrations hate discrepancies. This time however, ...

I hope the tornadoes haven't hit your area..

When I was a kid, my dad would take 3 weeks off every summer, and we would go on long, meandering road trips around the American West and Southwest. These make up some of my best childhood memories. We'd like to do that with our kids, but always run up against the inevitable time constraints....

1. Small planes use leaded gasoline, which is more polluting than autos and with over 600 landings and departures per day.... that is a lot of lethal pollution. 2. There is always the eminent danger of a plane crash, one just recently occurred and fortunately the plane landed in the marsh...
