Default Bad fuel gauges?

Gee, the world famous aviator is now telling us that the FAA doesn't know
what it is talking about when it writes documents.

Idiot. Get a little real world sense. Whoever wrote the handbook has
dozens of years, thousands of hours, and an understanding of how the world
works.

Rod Machado has not made an error of fact or interpretation as long as I've
known him, and that was probably while you were still in liquid form.

Look at the Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, too.


Wow, that's depressing. Whoever wrote the handbook apparently couldn't
be bothered to read the regulations before writing about them.

CJ, have you tried to get the FAA to correct their handbook? It's hard
to overcome this nonsense while the FAA is actively recycling it.
