folding bicycle - Cardinal RG by
Stephen N Mills
I am planning to buy a folding bicycle for use in Vicky (N2679V -
Cardinal RG '75).
Eventually there will be two bicycles, his and hers. Occasional use
for trips up to 5 or 10 miles in moderate hills, no mountain biking,
no centuries. More than three speeds would be nice but I don't know...

A Q on horizontal turns by
Ramapriya
During a cruise, just pressing on one of the rudders should make an
aircraft turn horizontally in that direction, when no ailerons are
used. Reducing power in the opposite engine should logically accelerate
such a turn.
Makes me wonder why then was it is that, in the crash at the end of
2001 just...

Essendon Airspace Procedures by
paulsims
Hi guys, can anyone tell me what is required to obtain a clearance from
Essendon Tower to do an orbit around the Melbourne CBD. I trained in
the bush for my recent PPL, but I fly mostly from Moorabbin. What do I
need to request and do I need to have submitted a flight plan.
Thanks
Paul

Apology by

Some of you might be wondering why, when Art Varrassi asked me a question
about my advanced pilot book, my reply referred to my multiengine book. In
true FAA fashion...
(a) knee-jerk reaction
(b) old timer's disease

photo needed by
Dana M. Hague
I'm looking for a photo taken from the cockpit of a modern small plane
(Cessna, Piper, whatever) showing several planes in front of it
visible through the windshield waiting to take off ("...you're number
6 for takeoff"). Ideally the control tower and at least part of a
well equipped instrument...

TFRs downgraded by
C J Campbell
According to AOPA, many of the TFRs have been downgraded to NSAs with the
release of the latest round of charts. This includes all the hated Puget
Sound TFRs. NSAs are depicted on charts and pilots are advised to avoid
them, but they are not prohibited unless the FAA issues a special notice
during...

seatbelt accessory by
tscottme
I'm trying to find the name of the product and maker of a seat/shoulder belt
accesory I saw in AOPA magazine. It put two pockets on the shoulder portion
of a seatbelt. The ad showed the pockets carrying a cell phone and glasses.
It was advertised in nearly every issue for a good while, although I...

Aviation Pictures by
Wizard of Draws
I stumbled across this site today:
http://lcweb2.loc.gov/pp/pphome.html
Search for terms like aviation, aircraft or P-51 Mustang and you'll come up
with a lot of interesting photos that you may have never seen before. Pretty
interesting if you like history stuff.

Twas the night before Christmas
'Twas the night before Christmas, and out on the ramp,
Not an airplane was stirring, not even a Champ.
The aircraft were fastened to tiedowns with care,
In hopes that come morning, they all would be there.

Look Both Ways Before You Cross... by
Marco Leon
"Clear left, clear right." I say it everytime I cross a runway during taxi.
Today was the first time in four years that I saw an aircraft on short
final. I held short and called ground half-expecting the controller to say
that he was a low approach on the ILS. "Ummm well, he shouldn't be there."

FIGHTING TERRORISM 101
Winning a battle abroad is no substitute for losing the war at home yet that`s
exactly what`s happening. We`ve won battles in Afghanistan and Iraq while

Hi,
I'm a commercial pilot looking to fly a high performance single (or
multi-engine). Anyone own a plane that would be willing to rent it? I
would help with insurance and pay a per hour charge. I would prefer
KFRG or KISP, but i can also fly from KTEB. I'm looking to build some

logic of IO-360 100hr injector inspection 93-02-05 by
Robert M. Gary
Once again, its time for the 100 hr AD sign offs for my Mooney. I
still cannot come close to understanding the logic behind the injector
line AD on lycomings. My understanding is that some A&P at some point
accidently bent some of the lines and didn't understand that it would
effect the available...
