Having never flown overseas, where can I find a prog/forcast/airmet describing the location and hazard areas of the current ash cloud over Iceland. Any way to tell what airports are closed and which ones plan to be closed ? Thanks

Over the last month I've "kill filed" or "blocked sender" in IE express all the obvious non-pilot posters. Troll posters AND troll feeders. Only about 10 people left! I know I've "killed" a few posters that were knowledgeable and I admit, enjoyed reading their post when it applied to...

Flying back from Amsterdam to DFW on friday with KLM, I saw that we headed north for Denmark, then turning west, passed to the north of Iceland. Then crossing the southern half of Greenland and into Canada, we proceeded across the Hudson Bay, and passed West of ALL the Great Lakes, and then on...

An examination of my posting history will reveal than I argued and possibly threatened a poster by the name of "Mark", . WAIT A MINUTE, ISN'T THAT ME? But there is plenty of evidence that I was in constant conflict with someone having the same name and google identification...

Man I wish we could cool down these small plane cabins. Haven't researched it, and maybe the high dollar late models are better, but these summer days make it pretty uncomfortable in a trainer. It's gonna hit 90 today. --- Mark

Did a simulated power out emergency today, and killed the throttle near 4500 ft. Established my best rate of glide (70mph) and as I found my most viable field to land in, we were going over the procedures for such an occasion. Eventually I reached a grassy field that actually looked decent,...

Hey Jeffrey, did you find a safe house yet? Now he's after me. Nah, he ain't gonna killerate me like he is you, but I'm pretty sure he's gonna punch me in the nose. I called the attorney, then the general, then the attorney general. I called general Mills, I called Captain Crunch. We're ****ed.

I think I visited this site many years ago. Havn't has NG's in years. If so, I am some disappointed in the QUANTITY of interesting commentary on flying. I am an 83 year old ex-pilot - lost my medical some 30 years ago, but my interest in aviation has never slackened. I started flying in the AAF...

I have no clue who the 8 or 9 men in black suits with radios were this morning when I go to the airport. I did see their rather LARGE jet parked out behind the building. So I'm out sitting in the plane when another LARGE jet came screaming in, kicking up dust in front of me. Some guy walked over...

Hey, Mxsmanic, when you were a little boy, did your granny explain why everyone called you "Blossom"? You know, because you were, and STILL ARE a blooming idiot. Ok, go ahead, get busy. Spend another 1000 hours of your valueless unemployed time and continue devoting your life to forging posts...

Just for fun you can go to 'Google Earth' then click on 'Tools' and next you will see Flight Simulator. If you're a pilot you should have no trouble with the SR-22 once you figure out the controls. If you're really good, you can fly the F-16 around 500kts then land it at an interesting runway,...
