and now for soemthing completely different: the ICON A5 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpNBNg4JzeQ about 140AMUs and boy, this is a cockpit from this century, not like most of the other crap on the market.

He had a ... challenging ... childhood. His father (well, I'm 30% sure he was Maxie's father, altho Maxie isn't quite so sure) seemed to take too much of an interest in him, if you get my drift. Not that a little discipline is bad for a boy, but sometimes the old coot would get carried...

I have found it an a very useful supplement to my flight planning to view my route on google earth before the flight. especially when flying to an airport I have never been before. The visual picture of the route and destination is just so much more real than a map. And of course you can check...

Picked up my plane from the avionics shop at KJAN. Had a Garmin 30SL installed and a VFR Garmin 250 XL installed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAkMEINXVE8 is landing and departing traffic at KJAN Jackson MS and my return home at KMBO Madison MS for a couple of landings. NICE to be back in the...

After an ILS to 04 at KSCH the other day, we broke out into decent VFR, so I asked for some closed pattern work. On downwind, they asked us to hold 360 degrees "Traffic is a Boeing B-17, your twelve o'clock, two miles . . ." Then "Number two, behind the Boeing . . ." I followed him in from left...

I notice that there are Ivoprop makes an in flight adjustable propeller suitable for a an o-200 engine. I understand that putting this prop on my C-150 is illegal. But suppose ... Suppose I put this prop on my Cessna 150. It only weighs 9.5 pounds, as compared to the Sensenich weight of 24...

Boeing funded a clinical trial to actually determine the effects of being at an 8000 foot altitude for extended periods, and the results were published last year in the New England Journal of Medicine. It's an interesting read: here's the URL Many peer reviewed journal articles require membership...

Hi, here are 2 movies from ... errr ... a loooong time ago, enjoy: http://www.archive.org/details/Flyingwi1953 http://www.archive.org/details/Flyingwi1953_2 from a time ... back then ... when pilots where heros. :-) #m

Hi, In the video at www.fulldeflection.com , Kirby Chambliss has his canopy fly open during flight. He was very cool about it. I think he made all the right choices. I've had a door open a few times during flight too, on a Cessna 152. My instructor showed me how to close it in-flight. You slow...

I have seen several E6-B calculator utilities for the Palm operating system, and I was wondering if any of you could recommend (or not recommend) any of them, I'm looking to score one soon (and any program that had any features specific for helicopter would be a bonus). Thanks in advance - - B

Taking off with your wife and daughter would have to be pretty high on the list: http://www.ntsb.gov/ntsb/brief.asp?ev_id=20080731X01135 The plane was a '59 145hp 172. DA would have been around 3,500. You can draw your own conclusions.

As an _experiment_, I have created a Google Groups only (i.e. non-Usenet) group that is intended to provide a somewhat more controlled environment than this group. The URL for the group is he http://groups.google.com/group/rec_aviation_piloting I've posted a couple messages there that...

Oh my goodness....Right Rudder? Why in the world would any pilot need right rudder and why do so many of todays pilots fail to have any understanding of it? How come so many of todays pilots seem to hug the left side of the runway? Such a frustration for CFI's and I wonder how many of the current...

25 Reasons You Might Be a Liberal * You're sure the Constitution explicitly guarantees the right to abortion and gay marriage, but not the right to own a handgun. * You think Dan Quayle is the dumbest Vice-President we ever had because he believed a flash card that misspelled "potato," but...

Anthony, You've been asked 5 times in a nice, diplomatic way by "Ricky" to simply provide one reference to the respected literature that you use. You have said over & over again that you cut & paste and use well- known, respected, legitimate aviation resources for your information. In particular,...

QUESTION? 1. Will white people get more welfare? 2. Will white people get Government jobs regardless of qualifications? 3. Will white people get affirmative action? 4. Will white people be promoted in the FAA and Government regardless of qualifications? 5. Will white people get free health...

Maybe I am spoiled. I keep expecting that in this modern age there will be plenty of photos of an event like AirVenture even while it is ongoing. The official EAA site is top heavy with photos of mechanical bulls, past prime rock n' roll acts, and photos of the people that make AirVenture what it...

At the request of one of the other posters, I hearby pledge to not respond to Anthony, no matter how ridiculous and inane his comments. There is a certain pleasure in insulting him, but he is either too stupid to get it, or just the response alone gives him the perverse attention that he desires...

Anthony, Is it true that one must fly by reference to instruments alone while in IMC and/or IFR? I am an instrument student and I thought I learned something different. Please explain where you learned that I must fly by reference to instruments alone when on an IFR flight plan or in IMC above or...
