The MEAs on SIDs and STARs are not MEAs in the enroute sense. If you want to look at my favorite example, look at the DRONE arrival into Norfolk, VA (KORF) and compare the MEAs in the STAR with the enroute MEAs on the same route (FL190 vs 2600’ and lower). It’s regularly assigned to light...

There have been repeated issues with the Manager not doing its job. Getting stuck in the middle of an update is a very common one. When it happens, I shut it down and restart it. Keep in mind that the app closes to the taskbar, tray so shutting it down includes right-clicking on the tray icon...

The risk of bugs hitting you in the face and getting in your mouth is extremely high. ...and disgusting.

The corpse will be getting a Notice of Proposed Certificate Action after the 30 days are up.

Who cares?

Pretty much (I'm using @RussR assumption that the DME is Guthrie. or add it as a waypoint to the flight plan

I swear I started writing mine before I saw yours!

... and if you didn't train at a towered airport and have limited towered airport experience, make them - especially nearby Class C and even B primaries - a priority. And always use flight following.

Congratulations. If IFR is in your future, it’s never too early to start getting your head in the game. But as a new pilot, there is so very much to learn with your eyes out the window. The required cross country hours have been mentioned, but I object to the term “knock out.” Makes it...

Sweet!

Procedures can vary but in most, once any state law requirements for (1) confirming the will and (2) notification and satisfaction of creditor claims are met, it should be fairly straightforward. The creditor part is one place where DIY can create exposure Some states have streamlined...

There is no pilot certificate that is automatically made invalid by the expiration or loss of a medical certificate. The pilot may not be able to exercise certain privileges, but the certificate is still valid. An ATP who no longer meets first class medical requirements is still an ATP. They...

Maybe. 61.23(c)(2) A person using a U.S. driver’s license to meet the requirements of paragraph (c) while exercising sport pilot privileges must— (iv) Not know or have reason to know of any medical condition that would make that person unable to operate a light-sport aircraft in a safe manner...

the 480 is the one out there I probably know the least about (didn’t fly enough with one to get that comfortable) but there is very little it can’t do. Heck, it was painting random holds two generations before the GTN and IFD. Chances are excellent the ID us in its database.

Same on an iOS device. Copy paste.

I guessed a few things about that but none of them made sense once they said it shows up as a waypoint, in which case, just enter the waypoint. OTOH, if they mean it’s only defined as 4 DME on the 120 degree radial or course from the airport, but not named, it’s just a matter of creating a...

Chances are that if you didn’t get a number to call, there was no loss of separation, and the controller is not interested in increasing their own paperwork by moving it up the chain. Could more come of this? Maybe, but it’s not too likely if you didn’t get the Brasher warning.

You are absolutely right about the helpfulness of the Registry people. And they definitely know what will satisfy them but not often the applicable state law rules about getting it. This thread is a good example. They already suggested @BeachPilot fill out an heir at law form. That will...

Yes, ultimately it will be the same. The FAA Registry just wants wants to know that actual ownership conforms to state law. The devil, as usual, is in the details.

Just a thought. If the registration is good until 2031, it was renewed last year. If the airplane hasn't flown in 2 years, maybe the certificate is in the deceased’s personal papers or with the aircraft records or even pilot logbook. Has anyone looked through all that?
