    Any transient parking at KMIA?

    Bigger issue than fees, when are you planning on flying in? 3am? If it’s during a push, you may spend more time flying in circles in the 150 waiting for ATC to find a gap in arrivals than you would catching a ride from a neighboring GA airport.

    34, feeling lost, lonely

    Putting an ad online in the late 90s early 2000s bears little resemblance to online dating of nowadays. I tell the youngin's now about how I met my now wife on match.com and you'd think I was telling them a story about meeting her at the soda shop after an Elvis concert. I mean, match.com was...

    Is there anyway to come back from an FAA Emergency Revocation

    You'd get better answers if you ant least admitted you took an unauthorized joyride in the school's airplane and lied on the medical application.

    Opt Out of My Legal Rights?

    Is there any company that a typical person deals with that hasn't required arbitration in their most recent term and conditions?

    The key risk prevention strategy within the part 67 certification system is a medical history review for conditions that could prove risky at altitude. The vast majority of the risk mitigation of a medical certificate is from the medical history review; the physical examination mitigates only a...

    BasicMed was intended by congress to allow GA pilot engaged in lower-risk operations to fly with a medical certificate. Operations at altitudes that require constant administration of oxygen and time periods of useful consciousness without it are only a couple minutes for the most healthy pilots...

    Airbnb/VRBO hosts: How to estimate likely occupancy rate?

    I'll tell you, don't try to market to pilots. Frequent weather/mx cancellations will eat any profit you might see. As far as comps, you'll want to find a host group for your area. More than likely the market is over saturated. Everywhere is over saturated.

    LNAV vs LP approaches?

    Interesting, because LP approaches are the result of surveys that did not support an LPV approach, due to some sort of surface area penetration. Vertical guidance on an LP approach may get you closer to terrain or obstructions than you like. Use with caution, particularly in the visual segment...

    Basic Med Restriction

    Some insurance companies won't insure BasicMed pilots over a certain age. This rule may have been instituted as a means of not discriminating against older club members. But then again, who knows? Usually arbitrary flying club rules are a result of some event in the past that resulted in a...

    Are you referring to this article? It looks like the writer misunderstood what the purpose of section 828(a)(2) in the reauthorization statute. The BasicMed comprehensive medical examination checklist (CMEC, FAA Form 8700-2) is based off of the FAA form used to apply for a part 67 medical...

    KBNG Banning Airport authorized to close by FAA

    IMO the biggest BasicMed fix in this reauth is the issue with examiners. We'd been wanting to correct that for some time but there's limited capacity to enact rulemaking. This will keep the older, more experienced DPEs on the line. The seats issue will fix the PA-32 problem. Many PA-32s are...

    The law just passed today. The FAA still needs to publish a rule for the BasicMed items. It’s unlikely notice and comment will be necessary because this was directed by Congress, so it should only take a final rule to implement.

    Thinking about a rental property

    If you still clear 7% from your worst "mistake", yeah, you're doing pretty good. Many landlords I know insist on offering certain services included in the cost of the rent...mowing, changing AC filters, replacing smoke alarm batteries, etc. They do it not just for renter convenience or to...

    Pocket knife: Weird or normal?

    I used to carry a pocket knife daily until the early 2000s. I suspect I stopped when carrying a cell phone became a thing. Too much weight to carry around. Whenever I’m doing outdoor or EMT related duties I carry either my gerber or Kershaw Onion on my belt.
