Cessna 210 V-Speeds by
Eric Bartsch
I'll be taking my first dual in a 1974 Cessna 210II this Sunday and I
won't have access to a POH until then. If anyone could post the
V-Speeds and typical traffic pattern speeds, I'd appreciate it so I can
start a bit of studying in advance.
Also, any words of wisdom about the plane would be...

listening to ATC on United Airlines by
Bucky
I'm not a pilot, just your typical passenger. I don't fly United often,
so I just discovered that they put the ATC on the inflight audio. I was
totally fascinated and want to learn some more. Is there a website that
has some basic ATC protocols? Not some huge reference manual, just the
common...

Good places for lunch NE Florida? by
Doug Vetter
Hi all,
I'm flying from New Jersey down to Florida in the 172 next week and
would like to take my sister up for her first flight with me since the
day I got my license way back when. I figured we'd grab lunch on-field
somewhere, but my research (airnav and 100dollarhamburger) hasn't
revealed much...

Why couldn't it have been Mayor Daley?? by
[email protected]
With all the reports now coming out about how close that Cessna came to
getting smoked over Washington, it got me thinking. When the governor
of Kentucky flew into D.C. in his King Air with a dead transponder, it
caused all kinds of panic. Then the Cessna incident happened. If
something like that...

Security in the USA by
Cockpit Colin
I'm curious ...
What do you folks in the USA think the answer to the big "question" is, when
it comes to things like security of the whitehouse?
What's best ...
(a) Increase the radius of the no-fly zones to give greater protection
against faster aircraft?

Here's evidence why the gov't assholes overreacted. by
R.L.
It's come out that the C150 was squawking VFR. Why on F*g earth would a
pilot on a supposed suicide-bomb mission bother to have his damned
transponder on, much less squawk 1200 while penetrating the ADIZ? Doesn't
make sense.
I believe I heard that the 9/11 hijackers knew enough to turn...

Dangerous Cessna evacuates govt again by
Paul kgyy
True to the rugged pioneer spirit of our great country, DC cowered for
cover again as a Cessna violated the no-fly zone. Fighter jets were
scrambled to deal with this imminent threat to the security of our
nation.

Service Volumes of VOR's make no sense by
Antoņio
I was at a CFI safety meeting today and the subject of VOR service
volumes came up. The AIM describes the Standard High Service Volume as
providing positive course guidance at varying distances depending on
your altitude--40nm at 1000ft., 100nm at 14,500ft, 130nm at 45,000ft, etc.
If the VOR is a...

Airport Database by

Does anyone know where I can lay my hands on an airport database with name,
ID, lat/long and elevation?
I've found two from separate sources that are close, but each is missing at
least one element that I'd like to have and I don't relish the thought of
trying to merge them into one.
