First: nice photos!!! Second: when i look at the STARs, it looks as if a lot of them start at high altitude, especially coming from the NW (I'll be flying from the twin cities area). When they ask you to do a STAR that has a "floor" of 11,000, what do you do if you are down at 8000ft? I know...

I have business to do in downtown Chicago and, without Meigs field in existence any longer, I was thinking MDW and parking at Signature or Atlantic would be an option (despite their %&!X$ handling fees). So, if I am considering this idea seriously, what do i need to know about slotting in...

Having done orientation flights with CAP and trying to get my own kids into flying, I would recommend that you make the first flight short (20-30minutes max). Keep all your turns shallow, and don't do anything that increases or decreases G-forces rapidly; even if the kid asks for it. Best...

Here's your preliminary report: http://www.kathrynsreport.com/2022/01/mooney-m20c-n79396-incident-occurred.html

Thanks for the feedback. I bought the real world IFR and now I have checked out some of those flightinsight videos- very cool!

For those of you who use pilotworkshops, what IFR course would you recommend for a newly minted IFR pilot? I’ve signed up for the IFR mastery workshop, but I was also looking at some of their other courses. Suggestions and thoughts are welcome (doesn’t hurt that I have a gift certificate for...

Can someone please explain the Rod Machado rubber band trick? Or is there a web link?

Yes, I paired it. There is a second device paired al the time, which is an ipad the club uses for the ADS-b traffic awareness. So, 3 devices were trying to connect at once.

Power club with 3 pipers and a cirrus...all under $140/hr tach (wet) Glider club with rates around $40/hr Tow for glider club - free time in a pawnee (wheeee!!!!) CAP - free if I'm doing a mission. Otherwise, about $50/hr hobbs time (wet) As others have said, the wife's horse habit is FAR more...

My instructor and I got into a discussion about how many devices can connect to the GTN650? I could not connect my ipad, and he could (he has garmin pilot, i have foreflight). the manual says the following: "Unit allows pairing of up to 13 Bluetooth enabled devices, with two simultaneous...

No Cause of GPS failure given. Simply that after leaving the airport, all you have is VOR and compass after that point.

It's the truman MOA (A and B)- both have a floor of 8000. Therefore, I 'd file 6000 in real life. That altitude would give decent backup coverage from the surround VOR's (right?) KTBN to KSTJ is the route, with failure of GPS somewhere along that route. direct: KTBN BARTI KDMO KSTJ around...

I've been given a practice IFR scenario where I can either divert around a collections of MOA's for an extra 30-40 miles, or fly right under the MOA's (they start at 8000MSL, and one could fly at 6000MSL) and save 30 miles. Part of scenario involves total failure of GPS somewhere along the...

A friend of mine who works at MSP ATC told me that if I were to fly inside the mode C veil and I wanted to do some sight seeing, to simply ask for "traffic advisories." I've now done this several times. I get a code, and they remind me to stay out of bravo. It's been very handy when 'copters...

I cant believe I'm the first person to mention Voyager Village as a destination! Great food, nice runway, can also play golf there, if that's your thing. 9WN2 link: https://www.voyagervillage.com/airstrip/

They are pink, but that’s what cool aviation stickers are for…or you can get creative with an airbrush

SOLD!

I'm looking to get a nice ANR headset. My wife has a sensitive jaw and the classic metal banded headsets give her jaw pain after a while. Would the sierra's do a better job? Is there a functional difference between a sierra and the zulu in terms of ear cups and ANR?

Curious: did the OP make it to the goal airports? Having skirted along that border myself, my favorite was 48Y: what a fun airport to land, and surprisingly cheap gas!

Any chance you could post a picture? I might be interested in getting custom molded plugz, but I want to be able to should the local audiology business what the elbow bend looks like.
