The Mustang Suite is done! by

***CAUTION -- SHAMELESS PLUG WARNING ***
I've been promising this one for six months -- and we have finally finished
the Mustang Suite!

cheapest Jacuzzi suite) and loaded it up with new wall paper border,
carpeting, window...

Are sectional paths correct across "long" distances? by
vincent p. norris
No. Straight lines on Lambert Conformal maps are not great circles.
It's my understanding that the Lambert Conformal is better than any
other flat surface at representing the curved surface of the earth in
such a way that a straight line on the chart comes very close to being

Please excuse me for cross posting. There are two separate
discussions going on about the Lowrance Airmap 1000.
Mike,
I just bought an Airmap 1000. I placed a pirep over on rec.
aviation.piloting last night. I've never flown with a 195 or 196. It
sounds like they are very nice, but cost more...

Daddy! What did you do?!!! by
Steve Schneider
One of the advantages of flying is that you can pack so much more into
your weekends. Last weekend was a typically busy one for us. We had
plenty to do around the house, I had to help a neighbor move, and we had
a dinner to help with at the Fallbrook Air Park (L18) for some 80 odd
people -- oh,...

Turbulence and airspeed by
Jay Honeck
Mary and I flew to West Bend, Wisconsin (KETB) today. It was supposed to be
CAVU all day, except along the Lake Michigan shoreline (where they were
getting stomped with lake-effect snows all day), but, of course, the
forecast was just a bit off, as it often is in winter.
From Dubuque (DBQ) to...

Thundersnow - Destructive turbulence? by
Peter R.
Right now there is a pretty intense lake-enhanced band of snow going on to

meter) of snow is expected in that narrow region over the next day. The
forecasters included lightning and thunder in their discussion of this...

piper cargo twin crashes in eastern washington by

Just heard about this on the morning news. Apparently pilot with 4 months
with the company had trouble maintaining altitude and attempted a landing at
the Easton, WA airstrip. It sounds like he came up short and crashed into
some trees, then cartwheeled and burst into flames.
This is tragic,...

C-172 Fuel by
[email protected]
I fly a 172 F.
The fuel selector says to select single tank operation at or above 5000
feet.
If you leave the selector in the "both" position, under 5000 for any
prolonged period of time (couple of hours) the right tank appears to go
down more quickly than the left. This is confirmed at...

Visual coordination of turns revisited by

I'm still in a bit of a quandry as to how to learn to make coordinated turns
in a PC simulator that does not include a motion platform.
I've turned on the visual alignment indicator that MSFS provides, which is a
red "V" that sits squarely ahead in the visual field, effectively bolted to

FAR:Safety Pilot & High Performance/Complex? by
Jim
It is my understanding (always subject to correction) that as a safety pilot
you may log PIC time because you are indeed a required crew member for the
operation. However, to log PIC time you also must be qualified to act as
PIC of that particular aircraft.
