Default Class A airspace

On 6/5/06 Peter Klose from the SFV Mannheim club
flying a Nimbus 3DM D-KTTT out of Parowan, Utah had
such a large error in his logger that he went to 19,180.



I don't quite understand...this guy posts the flight
for all to see on OLC and that is okay. Someone brings
up this flight on RAS...and this is not okay?

Perhaps the pilot somehow stayed under FL180 on that
flight, I would think an explanation with his upload
would be warranted. This idea that 'pushing the envelope'
in regards to the FAR's blows my mind. If a mid-air
occurs I doubt the public would buy it. I also agree
with Ramy...transponder usage would help with a much
larger issue. But that is for another flame-war.

Default Class A airspace

This thread is about an important concept (playing by the rules) but
has twisted off into the realm of paranoia, with names and dates. Just
because someone didn't explain in the comments that they were cleared
above 17,999 feet, doesn't mean that they weren't cleared. Innocent
until proven guilty or something like that.

If I was to pass your car and trailer on the way to the airport, and
you were driving at the speed limit, would you:

A. Report me to the FAA.
B. Take my drivers license.
C. Remove my flight claim from the OLC.
D. Tell my mum.

From some posts in this thread, I'd assume all of the above. I'll never

get steak and kidney pie again.

How about reporting me to the IRS if you believe I'm not paying enough
tax?

It's far from a good idea to intentionally break the rules, but it's
a much worse idea for private individuals to play traffic cop.

A phrase that got me in trouble before...
Remember when the OLC was FUN?

Ahh.....give me a minute.....when I was in high school??? We only worried
about getting girls pregnant not if we would die from it. That was a long
time ago though. But we digress.....apologies because this is a great
thread and should keep on track. :-)
