    Personal Minimums for Instrument Currency

    When I was doing my IPC with @SbestCFII back in March of 2019 an army outfit had set up at an untoward airport to give their controllers practice (I think they had set up a temporary class D) and we asked them for a PAR and they obliged.

    We just refinanced and remodeled our home. Our mortgage guy (who is the husband of my wife' cousin) said normally there are about 9 months of inventory. Right now less than a month. And all the houses are being bid up over asking. Even putting in contingency contracts that say 'whatever your...

    Why the FAA is so tough on alcoholics...

    Why the FAA is so tough on alcoholics...

    Help me understand GPSS

    Exactly how it works. When you turn the GPSS on it even has a little heading bug icon with an 'X' through it to let you know it's not functional.
