Windsor Tower by
Richard W. Graves
I am based at Grosse Ile MI (KONZ) and I was practicing approaches Monday
morning at Windsor Ont. The controller asked me to remind all Detroit area

wanted me to tell everyone that there are no Canadian ATC charges for...

flying LPV with Garmin G1000 & King KAP140 WAAS by
[email protected]
I'm a little new to this airplane and tried to fly an LPV approach on autopilot.
I had the approach activated and was outside the FAF at approx 30 degree intercept, when I pressed AP, then APR. It turned on course properly but never captured the glide path. What am I doing wrong?
thanks
Rick

while going down the...

CFII signoff needed, Dallas by
RM
I'm considering taking one of the intensive instrument rating courses,
most of which have a prerequisite of having completed the knowledge exam.
Accordingly, I've been working on that on my own.
Is there a CFII around who is willing to give me an endorsement to take
the test, preferably just on my...

I want to fly from Toronto City Center (CYTZ) to Windsor (CYQG) IFR.

wonders of VFR on top by
Robert M. Gary
The other day I wanted to get a clearance to get above an overcast
while in cruise. When I asked for a clearance the controller said it
would be awhile because my destination was more than 500 miles away.
He said he needed to get me a clearance all the way there even though
my intention was to...

Non radar IFR by
Robert M. Gary
I just brought my plane back from annual. Apparently the shop forgot to
put the transponder antenna back on. I was impressed with how easy ATC
made flying IFR w/o the transponder. They did not require me to give
the full non-radar reports. They just asked me to verify my altitude
and report certain...

techniques.

Flying IFR with Garmins by

I just recently decided to buy our first Garmin GPS (296). I had not

fixed that with the 296. However, the one outstanding item missing on
the 296 are airways. On my Skymap IIIc I can easily fly an airway by
