Seriously?

Wow. Not nearly enough information.

Yes.

Requires a sign off for preflight planning only. No postflight signature needed.

Got a reference for the “no certificate” comment? That makes no sense to me.

Let me get this straight. You want me to drive your car to northern Wisconsin from … where? somewhere else in Wisconsin, yo will fly up and get me and I get to log the time coming back? Hmm. What kind of plane? I log sole manipulator and you act as PIC? Devil/Details. I can’t do it anyway...

I think in this day and age of almost instantaneous coverage by social media, that has become moot. Those images can be “ published“ before the squad can get there.

Ahh

Just curious: if they couldn’t see you, how were they steering you around?

Or any day that ends in “Y”?

If you are totally in control of your schedule and can schedule at your leisure you are 1099. If the flight school requires you to be at the airport at a certain time and for a certain duration, you are a W-2 employee. A lot of times a flight school will claim 1099 status when W-2 is the reality.

So this whole discussion boils down to this: We don’t have enough information. It took me a minute to figure out what IGE and OGE meant. To me, hover practice, especially when weather is below VFR minimums, means in ground effect. Bottom line when dealing with ATC is that if in doubt, ask...

Well, they DID eventually declare.

Ok, I see that. But I don’t see how that applies to hovering practice or hover taxiing since there are no visibility requirements for taxiing.

I see it as 1/2 mile and clear of clouds for helicopters. I don’t see where a tower would have a problem with hover training as long as it is in a fairly remote area on the airport. Also, a fixed wing airplane is allowed to taxi when weather is below VFR minimums. Taxiing a helicopter from...

As long as those are the only two, I would be ok with it.

Found to do nothing and, IIRC, it increased stopping distance because of reduced friction.

Wow! That thing slid for a LONG time.

That doesn’t give the peanut gallery anything to argue about.

Been a long time since I flew something with a blue line. Got close. Right idea, wrong term.
