Hi, we have written a open source flight log softwa FluPP (http://flupp.sf.net). At the moment it is written in Delphi and only available in German. We plan to rebuilt FluPP2 from scratch. This time we use C# for better compatibility to Linux and Hand helds and there will be the...

Why are Ryanair or Easyjet or such like aitlines not doing Long Haul Flights to USA or Australasia?. If their business model works for short haul why can't they do it for long haul?. Is it banned by Govts.?. Or do these cheap ailines have a secret agreement with high cost airlines not to compete on...

Somebody explain this one to me. DXR (Danburry, CT) lists: Pattern altitude: 1701 ft. MSL TPA FOR JET ACFT 1743 AGL The field elevation is 458. I'm cool with the higher than normal TPA (there's some big hills right next to the airport), but I don't understand where they got the strange...

Our local airport manager (61B, Boulder City, NV) is keen to "rationalize" the various hangar leases that have sprung up over the years. The existing agreements are, I'll agree with him, quite a mess -- some permit "commercial" hangar use, most have a different term, and at least one prevents the...

Has anyone here flown to L52 lately? I noticed that their website, www.aircamp.com, is offline. I'm thinking about camping there for a night or two soon, and I was hoping to get some current feedback... Thanks. -jav

While I'm on a rant, there is a sense in this ng that the manufacturer's maintenance manual must be in the area where an annual or 100 hour is performed. I can find no such requirement in part 43 or part 65. Part 43 says that the maintenance manual procedures must be followed. Part 65 says that...

Necessity, as they say, is a mother. I am in the process of reinventing a square wheel called a vibration monitor. The electronics is relatively trivial IF the input and output parameters are known. What we know is that the engine is going to have a fundamental frequency at cruise RPM. Let's...

They're saying the Global Flyer's jet engine burns 102 pounds of fuel an hour. If that kind of fuel weighs in at 6 pounds per gallon, that's about 17 gallons an hour, or roughly double what I burn in the little Cherokees I fly. Then again, the jet propelled the Flyer about 2 times as fast with a...

A recent thread on what a person with an FCC license would have to do to install/calibrate/repair/adjust radios led me to do the research that I generally wind up doing once a year when this thread comes around again. Let's talk about the plain old airframe mechanic ("AM") and the feller with the...

ALRIGHT! That felt good! After a 2 year hiatus, I'm back in the saddle again! I was so mentally ready! Although I've only flown 4 times (last year once for a 20-minute hop in a Piper Tri-Pacer tail dragger on a grass strip), I hit the rectangular patterns, maintained altitude on turns, hit my...
