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.

Rent a Cessna 180 or 185 by
Doug
I am interested in getting a checkout in a Cessna 180 or 185. It does
not have to be solo, with an instructor is fine. If anyone knows of
one, the closer to Colorado the better please email me at
Thank you

piper cargo twin crashes in eastern washington by
steve
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,...

Visual coordination of turns revisited by
Mxsmanic
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

PIREP - Planes of Fame, Chino, California [long] by
Casey Wilson
Had some relatives in from Alaska last week. Al, a commercial fisherman
on Kodiak Island, shares ownership of a 150HP Super Cub on floats with one
of his sons. They use the airplane occasionally to spot fish when the boat
is working close enough to land to make it worth while.
In advance of the...

C-172 Fuel by

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...

Winter Flying, all over again by

So this afternoon was perfect VFR, after the storms of yesterday.
Realizing that we wouldn't be able to fly for at least another week, due to
upcoming holiday commitments, it was obvious what needed to be done:

I am not a pilot but have the greatest respect for those you are.
Most here wish to share their pleasure with non-pilots and I thank you for
