Radio license required? by
Marty Ross
When I first learned the memory aid for required documents, it was "ARROW".
When I inquired why sometimes I saw "AROW", I remember being told that the
second "R" was dropped because while flying within the USA you don't need
the "Radio License".
I glanced through the FAR/AIM and couldn't quickly...

Mode S questoin by

I thought regardless of discrete code, mode S always transmitted the code
assigned to each US registered A/C. However, I remember hearing that ATC

Home air band listening. by

I'd like to improve my air band listening at home. I'd like to be able
to capture ATC ground transmissions from an airport 15 miles away (DTW)
and ATIS from DTW and YIP (also about 15 miles). I'm in a two story

Question on airplane's IFR capability by

I'm planning on transitioning from a PA-28-181 to Diamond models (DA20C1

for putzing around the airport practicing IFR approaches, possibly in
IMC. There isn't a question as to DA40's IFR capability, but I'm
running into a bit...

GPS approaches are very unit-specific and have a high initial
