    Pilot threatened with arrest for helping NC victims of Hurricane Helene...excuse me?

    Leadership is tasked with delegating tasks especially in an emergency situation. Given the story did not name the leadership could be one issue as well. (Unverified story?) It’s very draconian to say, I’ll have you arrested when the moral compass appears to be in the right place. You could...

    Pilot threatened with arrest for helping NC victims of Hurricane Helene...excuse me?

    Exactly what I heard too, so for the news today at the gym to say the NC governor is applauding that the federal government is doing a great job, I highly doubt that. Bias Note: I used to be a federal government employee.

    I totally agree with you and I’m just wondering if my mind will make the right decisions. I’m already on high workload while in IMC and especially if you are flying in a crazy airspace like let’s say Chicago where you are cleared one route, get another route, and then get vectors. It becomes a...

    Sounds like it’s going to be a good turn out already. @RyanB maybe you can put a banner on the POA website promoting this event and also to let everyone know that they are welcome to join, it can be the signature fly-in for POA. I mean given the dessert selection, my mouth is watering already...

    First Annual North Texas Winter Extravaganza - Cedar Mills (3T0)

    This sounds great! Some notes about the dates though. Jan 6 is probably too close to NYE. Jan 20 is the inauguration. Jan 29 is Chinese New Year. Are you trying for the weekend or Mon/Tues/Wed? I’d probably opt for arriving on Thursday Jan 23 and leaving on Sunday Jan 26, if that’s an option.

    Garmin questions GDL-50 with a Aera660

    GDL-50/Aera760 user here. Works fine for the most part, however in the summer or when it’s hot, the GDL-50 would often disconnect devices. That can get a bit annoying, you’ll probably need to set it on the floor and have less reliable GPS or use an external antenna extension (I haven’t tried...
