If my understanding is correct, an aircraft stalls beyond that AOA which, when increased any further, produces no (further) lift. If correct, would it be logical to infer that an aircraft's stalling AOA: a. is dependent on its airspeed, and is independent of its weight and weight distribution,...

Just about all of the major (USA) pilot shops on the web use a "minimum advertised price" for headsets. The actual price for a popular headset, such as Lightspeed or David Clark are not readily available on the website. Instead you only find out the real price after actually ordering or requesting...

Hello everybody, I want to tell you what's happened during a Finnair flight from Helsinki to Milan, I'm not an expert of flight. During the entire flight, I noticed that the aircraft was continuosly rolling to right, and the pilot was correcting every 10-20 seconds the attitude. I noticed this,...

Has anyone here bothered to get the FCC radio license? I've been going down to Mexico for awhile and have never heard of anyone down there ever being asked for one (the officials in Mexico don't even know what it is). Has anyone ever heard of anyone being asked for it in Canada? I'm just wondering...

Hi all, A recurring theme seems to be that one should should not rely in fuel gauges. I can understand that from a safety point of view (I always dip the tank before start), but I get the feeling that they are considered just plain inaccurate. Why is that, every car I've driven has a fuel gauge...

I just added a wireless networking card to my laptop. I am now spoiled! The airport I fly out of (KOSU/Don Scott Field, Columbus OH) provides free wireless internet access in the terminal and restaurant. It is nice to relax and eat breakfast, pull up all the pertinent weather, discuss it with the...

I just got through watching several skydiving videos trying to motivate myself to plunk down the money to continue my AFF jumps. As a pilot/mechanic, I have continually been alarmed at the seeming disregard for federal regulations in the sport, or are they? Do jump planes operate under a waiver...

My original plan was to finish the instrument rating and then do some additional aerobatic training and a tailwheel endorsement before starting the commercial. But for some reason, as I approach the end of the instrument training, I've had an interest in doing the multi. I know that I wouldn't be...

Could someone please clarify what the legal FEDERAL minimum a pilot must blow to be charged with a crime? also, could someone please confirm that state or police have no jurisdiction over this offense if the accused does NOT live within the same state or city. Thanks

With the crossbreeding of amateur (ham) radio operators and pilots being something on the order of 25%, this is only slightly OT. There is a free online ham radio course being offered and sponsored by RST Engineering. It is intended to take anybody with an interest in getting a ham radio license...

Is it cheating/advisable/forbidden/useless to use the rudder alone to accomplish the very last seconds of runway alignment on landing? As I approach the landing point it becomes very difficult to turn in the usual way just to improve alignment. Using rudder alone can line me up perfectly right...
