I said that too and then married a K Street lawyer, sigh.

I live in Alexandria and have hangared my 182 at VKX for nearly 14 years. The extra aggravation of flying in the FRZ is far outweighed by the drive basing the plane farther away. During rush hours, my normally 20 minute drive to the airport is 35 minutes...not bad really. Hangars come up from...

If you can find one, a Bell 47 would fit the bill. Not too many left in flight training these days, however.

TERPS concepts and procedure development used to be a relatively regular topic in rotation for Belvoir publications like IFR and IFR Refresher. Back when WAAS LPV was relatively new, I used to do outreach to the GA community about SBAS approach procedure design and development. I even took a few...

Obviously doesn't work for online purchases, but I've recently reacquainted myself with making periodic ATM withdrawals and paying cash for anything that might try to hit me up with for a tip. Also, like Dave Ramsey opines, I find myself spending less on unnecessary stuff when I have to...

I’m looking for a Conti O-470 engine overhaul 80% off door buster sale. Post what you’ve got!

No. She cannot do BasicMed exams. She can assist, but a MD/DO* must conduct the exam (not just sign off on it). *due to technicalities of the term physican, some states consider Chiropractors to be physicians. Regardless, medical service providers may be in subject to discipline if they operate...

As someone who used to adjudicate part 16 airport compliance complaints, it really comes down to the facts of the case. The issue is conducting business at the airport, so if you're instructing but not accepting compensation then you're not conducting business at the airport. Now if you start...

There have been occasions where the airman intended to not renew the medical certificate and consequently did not comply with the requirements of the SI letter, resulting in the FAA withdrawing the SI. As noted in the legal interpretation, the FAA is not supposed to withdraw the SI if the...

Is this a VA benefits related issue?

I've got nothing much to add. Everyone else pretty much nailed it. As a general comment, I would make sure you let the HIMS AME you're working with know that you're opting to not renew the medical after the medical expires and if you get a letter from OKC, respond that you don't desire to renew...

Sounds like what you're seeing is your own aircraft. With ADS-B In, there are two sources for traffic: 1) direct reception of another aircraft's ADS-B out, and TIS-B, which is a rebroadcast from ADSB ground stations of traffic that is obtained through ATC radar. The latter includes both ADS-B...

In VA, you've got the VA Creeper Bike trail, Roanoke is a decent newly hip-ish town to check out. There's Peaks of Otter and Natural Bridge. Up around Arrington are some great apple picking orchards.

Getting a Bravo to fly over JFK at 6500 along your route of flight is never an issue and the NY Tracon controllers are awesome. Whatever you do, don’t avoid talking to ATC just because you decide to go to >7,000. There is a ton of arrivals and departures that will eventually be in conflict with...

My ownership experience with a 2006 LR3 cured me of ever owning another Land Rover ever again.

OAK is really two airports in one. A GA field with three runways on the north side of the airport, and an international airport with a large commercial service runway to the south. While there is a taxiway connecting the two halves, they're about as separate as you can get. Like any airport...

If you’re going to attempt to take this approach, you better log the lat/longs in your logbook of point of departure and point of landing. If your logbook only documents the airport codes, the assumption is you’re using the airport reference point (ARP) for calculation. Conversely, you could...

I like that. Especially if the sectional was of the era in which the chart was printed on both side. You could flip which side is visible.

Yep that’s where I found it! I certainly was planning on buying one at Oshkosh but it seemed like a neat thing to have for my office.
