you don't need any isnturments to navigate..
its called pilotage.. all you need is your BRAIN

if it is in the airplane.. you are expected to know how to use it
for "exams"


But are you always _allowed_ to use it? I know how to use all the
instruments I have, but navigating without some of them might be
difficult.

Just to clarify: Mx has said repeatedly that he has no intention of ever
flying a plane (even for a single intro flight, let alone a checkride).
Hence, the terse replies to his question.


How does that change the answer?

You asked a simulated question and got simulated answers. Next.

Now if I can just pass up on ordering that damn tasty bloomin onion
thing.................... :-))


Their towamba (sp?) pasta is pretty good... Used to be better though... They
used to put crawfish in it also... Now, it's just shrimp... Not sure if it's
worth going out there and putting up with the local place's crappy
ventilation system that allows the non-smokers to be poisoned by the smokers
though... Oh well, their loss...

I guessed you for an add on negative to another post in this thread (not by

You should add points for difficulty. I mean, come on, that I have a low
opinion of trolls is trivially easy for anyone to determine.

This is unclear. Did he wear out:

* crotch unit,
* game, or
* crotch

?

Two, one for each eye. I find that generally works well.

How many instruments am I allowed to use for VFR flight (for purposes
of exams)? Is it okay to use VORs to find my way, or do I have to fly
exclusively using landmarks without any radionavigation?

Right, something exactly like that. Sometimes I have to ask, and then
find myself fearing the answer.

Gettign back on topic, will be at the airport Monday to see what's the
final verdict on the corrosion on my plane. Hopefully they will be able to
fix it up without further ado so I can get the annual signed off and back
in the air!


Perhaps I missed it (for obvious reasons) but where 'bouts did they find the
corrosion, and how much?
