Hi all, I'm thinking of going back to school for AMT. Just wondering if all the schools are pretty much the same, or if some are lots better. And do employers really care. Or if anyone cares to comment on their own training -- what should I look for in an A&P program, what sort of experience...

I had a wierd thing happen a week or so ago. We were VFR, and called up POU tower (class D satellite of NY Approach), 10 southwest landing with blah, blah. The tower controller told us to squawk standby. After confirming that instruction, we did so and a little while later he told us to squawk...

Does anyone have any memories of the Canberra WV787, an aircraft used by the MoA as an Icing Tanker Aircraft, and by the Army Department of the MOD as a Biological Warfare research aircraft.

Hi all, discussing Pelican's Perch #15: Manifold Pressure Sucks! ( http://www.avweb.com/cgi-bin/udt/im.display.printable?client.id=avweb&story.id=182081 ) with some friends, we came to a point in the 172RG manual which says:

I found another cool web resource today: http://www.fly.faa.gov/Products/Coded_Departure_Routes/NFDC_Preferred_Rou tes_Database/nfdc_preferred_routes_database.html It's the database of IFR preferred routes. There's a fairly basic search page, or you can just download the whole thing as one big...
