pc simulator with Garmin GPS? by paul kgyy
Anybody know of a PC flight simulator that has full flight controls combined with a GNS-430 or 530? I have Garmin's 430 simulator without flight controls, and On Top with controls and a 1990 GPS unit that doesn't have approach fixes in the database. It'd be nice to have both in one package.

Loaner Radios by RST Engineering
I have a couple of radios that are excess to my current needs, but I really don't want to sell them. It's the old "Why didn't I keep those around. Now I've got to buy new ones" syndrome. Here's the list (all 12 volt only): Microair 760 (760 COM) Narco Com 11A (360 COM) Genave A-200 (180 COM,...

Cessna 152 Rudder trim adjustment? by GEG
Hi Folks, I'm a low-time (10 hour) student pilot. I took my first flights in my school's 152 about 2 years ago, then had an 18-month wait for various reasons. When I first flew the plane, I don't remember the right rudder being such an issue (I flew 3 times 2 years ago). Now, the right rudder...

AOA; scalar or vector, resolved. by Neil Gould
Hi all, In a tangent many times removed from the original "Who does flight plans?" thread, I became entangled in an argument about whether "AOA was a scalar or a vector". Not finding an adequate resource off-line that clearly resolved the issues involved in assigning either term as a valid...

Aviation Movies? by Dave Burton
Here is you chance to suggest movies to show at a fly-in. I'd appreciate any suggestions for newer movies, available on DVD or video tape. We've seen all the oldies. I've got to stick to PG films for the most part since this will be visible to the CAP cadets and anyone else still up after dark. ...

ultralight accident on Lake Winnipesaukee by Cub Driver
The poster who claimed that a "seaplane" turned over on Lake Winnipesaukee, NH, recently as a result of a boater's wake was a bit wide of the mark. The aircraft was actually an ultralight, whose pilot blamed the mishap on the wind. Bob Hirschfield, 54, of 3 Quimby Rd., Meredith, said the...

A Rec.Aviation FRS Channel @ Oshkosh this year? by Bob Chilcoat
IIRC, last year someone (Jim Weir?) designated a Rec.Aviation FRS channel so that everyone could find each other more easily. My brothers and I plan on being there this year. Did it work out and was it any help last year? Are there plans for repeating such a thing this year. If so, what...

CAP aircraft heirarchy by Robert M. Gary
I understand that I must take a form 5 ride annually in the "highest" aircraft I fly. So who wins between a C206 and a Mooney M20F. The 206 has more horsepower but the Mooney is "complex" (in the FAA terms, CAP has another defintion of complex). -Robert

Smithsonian museum at Dulles by Robert M. Gary
I tried to go to the museum at the Dulles airport today. Boy, they do a good job of hidding that little gem. D.C. easily has the worst roads for visitors in any city in any country I've ever visited. It is very hard to find things... 1) Many roads have formal names as well as common names. The map...
