short sighted and un-informed instructor. good for you showing her how to use it. if its installed in the airplane its fair game for a DPE to ask to demonstrate its use. thats one of the reasons you see a lot of ADF's that are still installed marked INOP.

ive have been following the Jurca line for years. plans are almost impossible to find, and are very hard to read. a cross between english and french and metric an us numbers. they are very cluttered. its not an easy build. I would love to do a 3/4 FW-190 with a M14 on it, but have never been...

come on now, you were flying an RV, live up to the rep. flight suit on, big watch, raybans, come in at full speed for a midfield break, dont talk on the radio and do what ever you want to do!

there are cases of a bad oil control ring with decent compression rings that will give you high oil consumption and good compression readings

Probably before he gets out of jail……..

I don’t care what Rosen says, my IA says that’s a minor mod and goes in with a logbook entry!

your posts fail the logic test. you say hims should not be one size fits all but then you state the after two years everyone should get a unrestricted medical. isnt that exactly one size fits all? in another post you say the reg say 2 years minimum, and ask why the FAA does not follow their own...

im going to get flamed for this but oh well. first, yes there are reforms that need to be made in the FAA medical field. but, the hims program is designed to get pilots back in the air that have an alcohol problem. agree with it or not, alcoholism has been defined as a disease. a disease that...

no, its called looking out for your fellow airman. the violation could also come with a operating an un-airworthy violation for the flight crew.

that is a major violation to the FAA and comes with a very large fine. it is a big deal.

just about any AP that maintains a couple of cessnas should be able to find a red tagged set of rails for you to use, there are plenty of them red tagged.

two totally diffent systems, the airbus has no direct connection between sidesticks. it is completely computer driven. the sticks move independent of each other. if one stick is move aft and the other stick is moved forward they cancel each outer out. if they are moved in the same direction they...

one thing that needs to be said. there is training, checkrides, and real world. a lot of good info has been given for checkrides and training. however, for the real world you had better be able to fly initial to final at any speed up to cruise, and get slowed down and stabilized from that. try...

i dont know the version of software in that plane, but in that situation now the plane will be saying "DUAL INPUT" also if one person holds the disconnect button down, it disables the other side stick.

anybody that knows the airbus control system knows that is total bs

no pushing auto pilot buttons could be a pic under 61.51 part one only deals with designation of pic. we are discussing an fo at a 121 logging pic when it’s their leg. that time does not meet pic by part 1. Only by 61.51 in a 121 operation part 1 clearly makes the captain pic: Pilot in...

my guess in your example the insurance company would say, i don't think so. they are looking for the experience of being PIC and making PIC decisions, not just pushing autopilot buttons.

We can discuss 61.51 and 1.1 all day, but bottom line is once your flying 121 your either sic or pic by who signs for the jet. Your not trying to get hrs to qualify for anything. another 121 will look at every other leg logged as pic as say yea, not. At that level its just ego to log pic when...

there is construction going for a new terminal just east of the RC FREEDOM (the farthest boat in the frame) so there are a bunch of barges and floating cranes working in that area. might have been one of them. i was on that boat the friday before. the response time for the rescue boats was short...

i wouldn't say it runs afoul, it just means that when the upgrade is done legally, then the AD applies and it must then be complied with at that time.
