I’ll see if I can make it out!

Oh, and by the way, we will officially be Texas residents starting a week from Sunday. We are renting for a year to get to know the area before buying. Found a home in Keller. Super stoked. My family fell in love with The area last weekend (although not the bone chilling cold at 40 degrees...

Whoa....I love Hard 8. If others are better, I got some work to do...

The reg says you need the IPC. You had it. As far as I can tell, you were legal. If the IPC was lacking, that’s on the CFI

Why not learn to fly in the jet?

No getting around it - stones suck and they’re painful. Very painful. Predictable, in my experience, so not as debilitating as the FAA thinks, but very painful. I would recommend that once he gets his 3rd class, go Basic Med from then on. It’s not worth playing with fire on them because the...

The crossing taxiways were paved. And higher than the grass

I once took off from an airport that had both and chose grass I will NEVER do that again. And I am super comfortable with grass runways.

Wow. Nothing skewed there.

I think the reason is because people in states where it is legal fully understand that it is still illegal in any state that hasn’t legalized it (I.e., the default position is that it is illegal, not that it is legal and some states have made it illegal). As a result, anyone with a sense of...

I’m sorry man. But the FEDERAL Aviation Administration is always specific. Moreover, the general consensus is that everything is allowed unless the FAA disallows it. I believe that the FAA, after having established a clear pattern of specificity, would have added “federal” to the question if...

Without a reference, i challenge your last assertion.

That’s great. But the FAA needs to specify the jurisdiction when asking someone to self-incriminate. Because in Colorado, while federal law may still consider marijuana illegal, an airman can buy it and consume it just like any other consumer product. And if someone asks them if it’s illegal...

That is guidance for the AME after the airman answers yes. What is the airman presented with in the question? I’ll bet it’s not that verbose.

I still think that legal marijuana would justify a “no” answer as it isn’t an illegal substance by that definition. It is a substance by their definition, but the question adds “illegal” as a qualifier without a reference to jurisdiction. The FAA can suck it. Smoke on brother, and tell the...

Wow. I’ve never seen a VOR like that either. Texas sure is different what from I’m used to.

Now the real question - what is ARSR used for?

Yep. That’s it: https://www.radomes.org/museum/parsehtml.php?key=KellerTXFAAsite.html&type=recent_html

The address appears to be 713 Keller Smithfield Rd, Keller, TX 76248 and the front building has ESU EG painted on it. Google maps has it listed as US FAA

I am in Keller, TX. Saw one of those fancy “Warning, this facility is used in FAA Air Traffic Control” signs. Behind the fence is this monstrosity. Any ideas? It has a octogon shaped base, so maybe a VOR? If so, not like one I have ever seen before.
