I was looking at these, in anticipation of getting my ticket soon (I hope!). The prices seem to be all over the board. Many seem to have an add on module for use with 4 passengers. I certainly don't know how to design electronic stuff, although I can read a schematic and build something from one,...

The short answer: I passed :-) The long version: After last weekend's check ride was postponed with the examiner coming down sick at the last minute, I had an extra week to fly and study. It turned out that I was only able to fly once but had plenty of time to hit the books. I didn't sleep very...

Instead of responding to a request for vectors in an engine failure over water situation, this controller played Q&A. No telling if the plane would have made land if the controller had answered *the* question. The pilot and his teenage daughter died in the crash... The airplane (a C-195) was...

Let me be the first to say: Great show, Roger! Congratulations on coming up with a new theory of Titanic's demise. To be able to "fly" 2.5 miles straight down into the depths of the North Atlantic -- wow! What an experience that must've been. Now go buy a Bonanza with all the speaking fees...

It's almost time for my first ever BFR, what should I expect?

Yesterday was gorgeous, CAVU weather in Iowa, so we took advantage and flew to Ft. Dodge for the first time. Located in north central Iowa, Ft. Dodge is the site of Iowa's only Flight Service Station. We have talked to them literally hundreds of times over the years -- but we had never actually...

We had to use a screw extractor to remove the retaining screw of our Apollo Flybuddy Loran. We thought the unit was junk so let the screw disappear. We then were able to get the unit repaired and now need the long retaining screw. If anyone knows where I could get one of these or the information...

We all know (or should) that when a Class D airport tower closes, the airspace reverts to Class E or Class G and is specified in the A/FD. Question is what determines which airspace it reverts to??? CFI Test Prep question 6930 answer states, "When that tower ceases to operate, it reverts to Class...

I hate to keep posting these, but it helps us to be aware of such things. Here's the link to a Washington Post story about a Cessna with three souls aboard that went down attempting to land in poor visibility, after being warned by unicom about the conditions. Yesterday was a bad day, with this...

The Freaky Number 11 Definitely do the last part; it is really quite freaky!! 1) New York City has 11 letters. 2) Afghanistan has 11 letters. 3) Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who threatened the Twin Towers in 1993) has 11 letters. 4) George W. Bush has 11 letters. Now here is what is interesting...

With all of these nonsense posts/threads ...I have an idea: If someone (or many of us at one time) would reply to these threads, but remove rec.aviation - would the thread then follow that post - with rec aviation removed? Throw the hounds off our scent so to speak. Could it work? Regardless if...

One thing I find amusing about this "TRUTH" joker is that his posts are marked as not to be archived. I guess he realises that if they stay around someone down the line will point to them as evidence of his foolishness. tim gueguen 101867

Just got my tax refund and want to get a new headset. I like Telex and am trying to decide between the Stratus and the 4105. Is the performance of the Stratus worth the extra $300? Thanks
