WOW! I had no idea this thread would be so productive! Here is the list, compiled from all of your posts. As you can see, some are more complete than others. If anyone can add some of the missing information, please do so! For example, some people didn't post what STATE their suggested museum...

Anyone ever throw a weight in the back to get within allowable weight and balance? I am flying a C182 with 430 pounds (pilot & passenger) in the front row. The point is I would like both of us to sit up front for the flight. I have other aircraft that I can fly, and this is not a required flight...

A pilot crashed on a NH mountain in fog yesterday. He survived, but his 17-year-old son did not. Rescuers were able to find him in part because he was blowing a whistle. I just added one to my flight bag. (http://makeashorterlink.com/?J3AA12BB8) --Gary

Last night on The Tonight Show, Cindy McCain mentioned that she would be doing a lot of flying as part of husband John McCain's 1982 Congressional campaign, so she attended flight ground school in an attempt to overcome her fear of flying. She said she then received flight training, and earned her...

We've been having a problem with the engines on our Seneca II for awhile now and I wonder if anyone else has any experience with it. The engines are TSIO-360s and if we lean at cruise with about 75% power (typically around 32-in MP) or less to anything over about 1400 EGT (which is still ROP),...

Here I am with the big stick again. I can't recall anyone discussing rough area landings or hostile terrain landings in a long time. For example, forced to land (no matter the reason-you supply one) and you are headed into a corn field, or a rice paddy, or trees, or perhaps mountain slopes. Well...

In the past I've been accused of being hopelessly starry-eyed about Oshkosh, to the point of waxing poetically sappy. Just to prove that I'm not all sniffly about leaving OSH, I thought I'd list my Top Ten List of things that suck about Oshkosh. Feel free to add yours. 10. Seaplane Base...

Hi, i'm interested in the multiengine rating (land), VFR-add-on to my PP-ASEL. Any comments about the best training aircraft for these purpose ? (PA34 Seneca, Beech Duchess, PA44 Seminole, Diamond DA42, ..) There are big differences concerning the rating requirements. Some flight schools offer a...

....offers endless opportunities for screwing up the experience for them, as I've demonstrated yet again. My business partner's 21-yr. old son has been hinting around for a few years that he wanted to try flying sometime. When he finally asked outright to take a flight, I was happy to agree,...

I landed at BED a couple of days ago, and as I was rolling out the controllers switched, so I never got the usual instruction to "turn off at Golf, ground .7". Since Golf was the first taxiway to turn off on anyway, I made the turn off. Tower was now so busy (common at BED) that I could not get a...

I was wondering where I could find any information about a twin engine caravan conversion. I remember seeing this a while back where someone had geared to turbines together to keep a single prop. Does anyone know who did the conversion? Thanks, Dan

I have had the opportunity to test out the new XMRadio Satellite Weather system (www.wxworx.com) enroute to Oshkosh... The unit is a demo unit which has been somewhat delayed from the initial planned production date of July 1 -- I am planning a Forums talk Wednesday 7/30 at Oshkosh on portable...

First time for me going down to near ILS minimums by myself. Video includes how I brief my IFR approaches. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCk_RRMemnM Video I think does a good job on demonstrating why the runway may not be always exactly in front of you after wind correction angle considerations...

Why do turbocharged piston props seem to be so rare/unfavored? Don't they provide a substantial advantage over normally aspirated engines?

I have a Lightspeed 15XL ANR headset and I like it. It really cuts down on the noise. However, when I pulled it out to go flying a couple of weeks ago, I discivered that the headband was broken. I was depressed. I have had it for about 18 months and I figured I was going to be royally screwed...

See: http://www.alexisparkinn.com/photogallery/Videos/JB_Nosewheel.jpg Airbus may not know how to make a landing gear mechanism that works reliably, but they sure do know how to make it TOUGH. It's hard to imagine the stresses on that gear as the wheels ground themselves into oblivion... -- Jay...
