I am not an aviator, but I have what hopefully is not a stupid question. I am a restoring a '80 Triumph Spitfire roadster and would like to add a Supermarine Spitfire gauge to the dash. I found a Slip (balance) and Turn indicator in ebay, but not knowing enough about them I was wondering if it...

Hi. Given: MH=315, MB=190 calculate the approximate heading to intercept the 180 bearing TO the station. The answer is 220. I don't know how to arrive at this answer. MH+RB=MB did not help.

Hello, this is an odd question of curiosity from an amateur: Two days ago I was flying from Dulles to LHR on a United 747-400. The aircraft taxied to the end of the runway, then the pilot announced there was a problem with the weight distribution on the aircraft wings, and we would have to move...

am still working towards becoming a CFI, putting together lesson plans and all that sort of things; I have been looking for a model aircraft that would be suitable for teaching ground school; i.e., ideally, should look like a GA aircraft, may be moving surfaces (i.e., ailerons, elevator,...

Hmmm. It’s way too early to know what caused the SFO crash on 28L today. But..I suspect (ILS was out on 28L) that he got way too low too soon, got within 50’ of the surface, had autothrottles on which pulled the throttles to idle and the pilot let that happen but rotated to get to the...

Congratulations all of this rare event that happens once in a hundred years!

No. Straight lines on Lambert Conformal maps are not great circles. It's my understanding that the Lambert Conformal is better than any other flat surface at representing the curved surface of the earth in such a way that a straight line on the chart comes very close to being a Great...

They're saying the Global Flyer's jet engine burns 102 pounds of fuel an hour. If that kind of fuel weighs in at 6 pounds per gallon, that's about 17 gallons an hour, or roughly double what I burn in the little Cherokees I fly. Then again, the jet propelled the Flyer about 2 times as fast with a...

I received my private pilot's license in 2006 while I was in college and have logged only 100 hours. Money has been tight, even with a full-time teaching career. Any ideas as to how I could get back flying again while keeping the costs relatively low? Man, I picked an expensive hobby!

Hi all, I'm new to this forum, and hope I'm in the right place to ask these questions. At 45, I've finally decided to follow my lifelong dream of flying. I guess my first concern is, am I too old. I don't want to be a airline pilot, but cessnas or flying instructor would be nice, so long as I...

Hello, I'm looking for any evidences or feedbacks from peoples owning or piloting Maule aircrafts, especially the Star Rocket MXT 7 180. Thank you.

I have a book The Vintage and Veteran Aircraft Guide, which has a table of information for all the aircraft in the book. Across the top of the columns we have abbreviations, for example, VMX VCR VS IRC RCR. So I know what the first three abbreviations are but what are IRC and IRC? The values for...

I've posted lots of messages about how much my wife and I appreciate our Bose headsets, followed by several about how my wife's headset became unusable after an upgrade (and a couple of attempts to fix it). Now I get to go back to praising Bose. I just got off the phone with Joe Tesini of Bose...
