The title says it all - a 60 day notice of intended rule making from FCC. Drawn up as ineptly as you have come to expect, but with its heart in the right place. Brian W

I am looking for any regular charter flight that is traveling from the South San Francisco Bay Area (Palo Alto or San Jose) to Auburn, California, or the reverse direction, that has available seats to buy on either leg. I could also work with a flight that terminates at the Lincoln airport just...

Maybe they can combine both this week's events and turn them into a Lifetime movie or movie of the week or something. The pics are LOL ... wonder how they're going to top this. American 777 loses door at D/FW Fort Worth Star-Telegram June 16, 2010

Well....For the past three days, I have tried to reply to the posts in this thread only to have my posts disappear completely. Trying one more time. To Hatunen...There is no such thing as an ATR (Airline Transport Rating) on a Commercial Pilot Certificate any more and hasn't been for about the...

Now here's a short airplane ride I think many of us would pay good money to take. http://vholdr.com/video/lap-around-boat

Watching the U.S. Open at Pebblebeach it occured to me that I played that course countless times on my "Tiger Woods PGA Tour" video game by EA sports and know all the hills and hazards. If only I could call Phil Mickelson and tell him what to do. After all, there's no difference in simulation and...

A recent post regarding technology made me curious about something The question for other pilots: on a 3 or 5 hour XC, do you let the transistors do the work, or do you mostly fly the airplane from "Clear" up to idle cut off? .. I'm guessing that 80% of the time I'm doing a cross country...

The altimeter in my (sim) cockpit has three colored bugs, two in the shape of arrows, diametrically opposed, in red and green, and one that is yellow and kind of wedge shaped. I can move the bugs but they all move together. What are these bugs for? The documentation doesn't seem to provide...

Heard a rumor that the resturant at KSEZ is closing at the end of the month, anyone hear anything about this ? D.

I got this from a friend: My sources said that a Washington Post reporter was being carried and admitted to accidentally pushing the brakes in order to leverage himself up to see better during the landing. He didn't realize he was pushing rudders or brakes. It's a good lesson for all of us who...

I have a like new (not even one tank of gas run through it) Key EZ by PowerTow. This unit will push/pull a single or a twin engine plane up to 5600 pounds. Set up for a Seneca 2 but can be set up for many other planes. Also included are the manuals, extension bar & bolt kit (still wrapped up),...

If the military itself can screw up enough to do this without even trying, you can imagine what a determined adversary could do to civil aviation deliberately: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2010/06/01/tech/main6537473.shtml Just another reason to keep VORs and other navigation methods as...

A bit of neophite comment on simulators. Some years ago I bought a Microsoft simulator, played with it a while and relegated it to a young friend. I'll say this - I wish I had this when I first started chasing instruments for certification. The first major hurdle, at least in my case, was...

Ipad review - Weather briefing Part 1 - Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_fvORQSLGs This is the first of a series of videos I am compiling. As you probably can see I am trying to capture every aspect of flying from preflight to shut down and flight planning is one process I have yet to...

I just looked over the last dozen pages of my logbook -- the only flight listed as local was an unusual attitude recovery flight with me under the hood and a buddy as a safety pilot. Every other one was from one place to another so as to be able to do something at the 'other' place (business, visit...

See http://www.usatoday.com/travel/flights/2010-05-28-aircontrol28_ST_N.htm I assume by "commercial" airspace they mean areas like Class A-B or A-C. And by "GPS" they appear to mean not just GPS but ADS-B. The article doesn't say which private aircraft will be expected to install this...
