When IFR flight planning at the lower flight levels (FL190 - FL230) in the US (single engine, turbo-piston), is it reasonable to plan and expect GPS direct to a destination? -- Peter

Flyers, A friend of mine is an executor of an estate that is selling a pristine 1973 Piper Charger (PA28-235) for sale if anyone is thinking of buying. It has a great useful load of 809 lbs. with full fuel or 1013 lbs. if you leave the auxiliary tanks empty. Contact me for photos if...

Ideally somewhere near Cadillac/Wexford County. I haven't been able to find much on the web. Thanks.

This is a follow up to the Ramp Checked thread... If you fly an antique aircraft, the manufacturer did not provide a POH or Aircraft Manual. What am I supposed to use?

The weather was a huge question mark for pretty much the entire flight home. My plan A of course was to fly back the next day (Tuesday, the 30th). Plan B was to fly home commercially, leaving the airplane for about a month until weather is more stable and I had less expected schedule...

Does anyone have a sample aircraft partnership agreement or a link to one that I could review? TIA

Does anyone know of any videos that provide overviews of airports--kind of an "AFD on video" type of thing? Anything that's broken down by region? Thanks.

I just bought a Brittan turn coordinator off a Bonanza on ebay. I'm curious how to open it up so I can see the gyro, et. al. I took the back off but that only gained me access to some capacitors on the back. I tried to take the face apart but that didn't seem to be the way to do it. How can I open...

My wife was asking about this festival. Is anyone here flying out there? Do you fly into Little River? How do you get into town, rent, taxi ,etc? Does it make sense for a day or do you need to spend the night? reference http://www.mendocinocoast.com/ -Robert

Sometimes the littlest things you do for people can mean so much. www.angelflight.ca It was last November, when I picked up Bert "under the Beaver" at the south terminal of Vancouver International (YVR). I whisked him home to Qualicum on Vancouver Island in the Cheetah, a short flight, and a...

I see HP has introduced the HP Compaq tr3000 (apparently named after a breadmaking machine). It is supposed to be a 'rugged' tablet PC, capable of being left out in the rain, dropped from three feet, etc., and generally exceeding milspec standards for hardiness. The 8" screen is supposed to...

My engine has 1200 SMOA and 4500 TT. I can find very little regarding the relevance of total time. Maybe it's close to irrelevant since a MO touches everything anyway. Lyc even zero-times their remans, of course, even they are obviously not truly 0 TT. Just curious about the subject of engine...

Does anyone have the King CFI/FOI exam course and/or the King CFI Checkride Course on DVD? VHS doesn't do me a lot of good because I have a portable DVD player and can watch DVD's anytime. EBay doesn't anything but the ASA course which I heard isn't as good. email me at...

I would like to find a database that shows the pilot certificates in a specific zip code or city for some research. Does anyone know if there is one available? Thanks... Chuck ---

I've been planning a little weekend getaway for self, wife, and son for a while now. I've a club airplane lined up, I've paid off the weather gods, and I've arranged for someone to feed the cats. I've also been playing with Aeroplanner just for fun (I've not yet decided if it's a keeper, but I've...

I'm about to start with a student at Addison airport. I haven't been there in a while and am amazed that all the old FBO's I used to teach out of are no longer there. I'm looking for names of FBO's that'll rent to CFI's. TIA

It's time again to tell Highflyer we're coming and make the annual descent upon the flatland of southern Illinois. I'm going, of course. The opportunity to stand around in a hangar with a crowd of certified geniuses who dress like hoboes (attack of the bright shirts!), drink beer, laugh a lot and...
