    Sleep Apnea and 3rd Class medicals or BasicMed

    Following this thread as I have a question regarding it also. Yes, I have been diagnosed w/ OSA and yes, I just recently got my SI for it. (Last week). I assume that since it does not specifically mention SI in the BasicMed description I am eligible to fly under BasicMed starting in May and...

    Filiming training flights in cockpit

    As some others have said, I did it also. I found it very useful any identifying problems in both flying, checklist re-enforcement and radio work. I had great instructors that allowed me to use them both inside the cockpit and out on the plane. To me, they were never a distraction and the...

    IFR Proficiency (and currency)

    Wayne, I use the sim over at Dragonfly quite often. From a visual perspective, it is quite immersive and since the audio panel and altimeter are all touchscreen screen it is quite realistic. They have quite a few planes loaded and would probably be able to sim what you are currently flying. I...

    Crash in Carrollton GA 2 airplanes down, 3 dead.

    Is it me or do both planes seem to have been in landing configuration? The DA20 was certainly full flaps and the Bo had landing gear down and appears to have flaps down. Such a shame!

    CPAP Compliance Without recording

    Yeah, I get that the reform should be completed within a year but, I only have 90 days to respond. So, I am hoping to get them the correct info on the first try.

    CPAP Compliance Without recording

    Dr Chien, I just got the dreaded letter from the FAA, requiring me to provide additional information on my compliance for CPAP use. I have been using a CPAP for almost 10yrs religiously, however the device(s) I have are older and do not recorder usage. How do I provide a cumulative annual...

    Overnight Rental

    I love the club I rent from. I rent a DA-40 and minimums are 2hrs weekdays and 3hrs weekends. The clock starts and stops at midnight so, the first and last day do not count in the equation. If I don't hit the minimum hrs then the remaining time is prorated at $45. We flew from Winder Ga to...

    Studying for written

    CPAP Therapy

    All, I have a quick question as it relates to my 3rd class and apnea. I have been on a CPAP for about 6-7 yrs and understand that if I fit the physical description of an apnea sufferer, I need to either have a sleep study done or show proof I am under the care of a physician with CPAP therapy...

    Scary Crosswind Takeoff in a Skycatcher

    This! My training was in a DA20, which is very light. I was taught aileron into the wind and gradually reduce until lift off. Then rudder authority takes over to maintain centerline. You would think at such a slow speed and serious xwind at lift off that a sideslip would do exactly what the...

    GoPro and flight recording

    Petro, to each his own. I am a new pilot and yes, I still watch my videos. I learn a ton of what I do right and what I do wrong. The object is to learn from the last flightand the video reinforces that, at least for me. It doesn't work for everybody but, it does for me. For the most part...

    GoPro and flight recording

    When I researched it before I started mounting them outside, the FAA did not have any commentary on it. It is not illegal however, if it they fall off and you damage property or injure someone, you are liable. As long as it is not on a control surface the airflow is minimally disturbed. One...
