Senate Bill S.786 could kill NWS internet weather products by FlyBoy
As a private pilot, I make frequent use of the NWS's Aviation Digital Data Service (see 1). I especially like their "Java Tools" graphic presentations of METAR, TAF, and AIR/SIGMET data. Senate Bill S. 786 (see 2) could well kill such NWS weather presentations in favor of private sector...

How safe is a new teenaged pilot? by anon
Our 17 year old son want to fly as a passenger with his 17 year old friend who is a brand new pilot. We think the boy is level-headed and mature. He grew up flying with his dad who is a retired test pilot for an aircraft manufacturer. These credentials not withstanding, I'm guessing that there...

I'm (hopefully) taking my first trip to South Lake Tahoe on Sunday as part of a mountain flying checkout with my club. I noticed that the control tower is no longer active - but the AF/D (and sectional) still has the Class D active during normal hours. I know it doesn't really matter from...

Went to Dallas IFR from Mobile on Wednesday, my first time to fly there. It's a 475 nm trip, about 3.5 hours in my C172RG with a little lucky tailwind. I filed BFM MCB GGG direct DAL. As expected, when I got near DFW Regional airspace, I got an amendment to my clearance: direct GGG, DUMPY2...

D.C. Cessna sca Repugnikkkans runs like cowardly chickens ! -- LOL! by george
evidently there have been some 180+ aircraft 'incursions' that for some reason didn't get into the news item. I'd worry more about the trucks on the nearby roads

Would a NASA form help? by Jesse Wright
Just had a thought... could the two pilots who busted the DC restricted airspace avoid a certificate action by filing an ASRS report? Here's my thought process on this. Was the violation inadvertant? Probably so. From the limited reports that I have seen, they were aware of the restricted zones...

Discussion on dealing with future ADIZ Incursions by light A/C by Hank Rausch
I would like to start a thread on what I see as the most pertinent take-away from yesterday's incursion: How can the current responses be modified to make the response more relevant to the threat, when the inevitable occurs again and a pilot gets lost? Assuming pilots won't get lost in the future...
