Hi, I'm going in two weeks for fly&tour&camp vacations. I planned to fly from San Diego to Florida and back, using different routes both ways. At first I wanted to go counterclockwise, but then after reading different comments decided to go in other direction, going through Grand Canyon and...

Sport Aviation (EAA Magazine), April issue, pages 110-112. The article shows a system of metal rod-stakes and the 3-part chain with the repair link in the middle. The article goes into some detail on how to make a 3-part chain with a repair link (pretty trivial to figure that out) but...

I was wondering if someone can shed some light on a phenomon I keep experiencing. I took a Mooney up to warm it up prior to an oil change. There was 70 degree crosswind at 20 gusting 28. Needless to say, there was moderate turbulance below 8K. As expected, I got beat up pretty good just briefly...

Last May I took a trip I've always wanted to fly: from San Diego to Massachusetss where I grew up. It was almost all VFR too: I was trying for 100%, but the coastal fog at my home airport required an ILS. And an amazing circumstance too: my AI tumbled somewhere over Pennsylvania, and looked like...

Hello- I am a CFI and I'm 19 years old. I attend college for something other than flying (although I want to fly professionally, just want a 4-year degree). I am wondering what people's suggestions are for a next step... the CFII or multi-engine rating? Which would be more useful at this point in...

Hello everyone. Let me give you a little background on my situation. I am 25, married, and my wife's father is a CFI at a local field. He has taken me on a Discovery Flight, and I am hooked. In short, in the past 4-6 months, I have been reading magazines, posts, the internet, etc... all...

While hanging out at Sun-n-fun this weekend, I came across the FAA training area and saw that they had a full motion simulator available for simulated spatial disorientation. I'm currently about 70% through ground school, and will begin flight training in a couple of weeks. I have been flying...

I flew our 172 N for two hours today at various altitudes between 3500 and 8500 experimenting further with LOP. Here's what I learned: 1) Forget "Peak" and "LOP". The buzzword applicable to a fixed pitch carb engine with single probes is "Richening" instead of "Leaning". The engine behaves...

So I was flying on a biz trip across the country yesterday, and happened to pick up an old USA Today, and I read the Editorial page, and what do I see? Apparently, the editors of USA Today are showing support for Richard Anderson, CEO of Northwest Airlines. Since it was a cross-country flight, I...

I was pre-flighting my plane today until I saw this long red strip running down the entire length of my prop with a small puddle at the bottom!!! I hadn't seen it before. It was the first time flying in three weeks. I was at the plane last week, and didn't see anything, but the again, I wasn't...

I flew from Airport A to Airport B (did 1 touch-and-go) to Airport C (did 1 touch and go) to airport D (did 3 touch and goes), then returned to Airport A and landed. Airports A & D are greater than 50 nm apart. Airports A&B, B&C, and C&D are less than 50 nm apart, respectively. Should I log the...

For those who don't wish to read the narrative, here's an abbreviated assessment of SNF 2004: High Points of SNF ******************************* - The first 1000 pilots received a cool "I flew into Sun N Fun 2004" hat. It even fits my fat head! - The food at Sun N Fun is terrific. Margaritaville...

Howdy. Does anyone know if a copy of the FAA's 'Airplane Flying Handbook' (FAA-8083-3) is available online in a PDF or HTML version anywhere? The book it replaces (The old Flight Training Handbook, AC 61-21) was available for download on the FAA's AC site, but I can't find the new book except in...

I was reading my umbrella insurance policy recently, and I saw that they don't cover any liabilities related to my use or owning of aircraft. Needless to say I would rather give my money to a company that didn't have this exclusion. Does anyone have an umrella policy that covers flying, if so can...
