There are no "landing fees" at ADS. FBO's do charge fees, I have no idea what they are.

Ever since they started building the new Galaxy FBO there has been one raising the minimums for the ILS to 34 by 220 feet and 3/8 of a mile. Galaxy has been built for a while now. So yesterday I started investigating. I drove around looking for the crane and could not find one. Then I talked to...

Report is out. DCA23LA109 On December 31, 2022, about 1539 eastern standard time (EST), an Embraer 170 airplane, N264NN, was involved in an accident while parked at the gate with one engine running at Montgomery Regional Airport (MGM), Montgomery, Alabama. The 63 passengers and crew onboard...

Too bad some common sense cannot be used. Any pilot with a lick of common sense knows the above pilot knows how to fly a tailwheel if that pilot passed their Private Pilot flight test in one. :rolleyes:

How about if it made the local paper? :)

We were cruising in Venezuela when 9/11 happened. We tuned in a local TV station showing live reports on the TV, since it was in spanish we could not understand most of it. Powered up the SSB and found a station where the voice was very close to the TV in timing, VOA or BBC I think.

Maybe I am misunderstanding you, but I have used OBS mode to hold at a fix, not VOR. Last time was to hold on the 270 radial off SUBIE for the rnav 1 into BMQ. I did not set up a hold in the 750 because I did remember how. I can go old school and treat the fix as a vor and use OBS mode. I know I...

Departed the DFW area IFR 8:30am, no problem. Tower told us the stop was just for airlines.

From the website "The Museum will be closed this winter starting Dec. 3rd. Thank you all so much for an incredible season, and we will see you all again in April!" I also think it is only open on Saturday mornings.

The deviation card on the Falcon 20's I flew said something like Windshield Heat must be off. Anytime the heat was supplied to the windshields the whisky compass showed one heading, 270 degrees if I remember correctly. I believe the KA's and Sabre were the same.

For operations like sub chasers that will fly for around 10 hours and thousands of miles then land back at the same airport.

I got it this week at ONT. We were about 2000 feet from the end of the runway when ground told us to monitor tower. We used to fly into PHX and got it also. Probably other airports that I do not remember.

Flying wise they all involved ABI. One day in February we were the last flight in and next to last flight out of ABI before an ice/snowstorm, dropping off boss. A few days later trying to get the hangar door open at ADS, weight of ice on roof jammed it closed, to go back to ABI to pick up the...

Headed to LA in the am to pick up some of our people that SW stranded.

"Tower: XXX I’m just going to ask for the published missed approach at this time." Knowing the rules, I would have continued and taken this to mean to fly the published missed, if needed. Were you cleared to land? If you were, did she cancel the clearance to land? The other problem might be...

There was damage at Meacham.

I lived in Venezuela for 2 years in the early 2000's. There were stores there that had a large board with a bunch of different brushes attached. You found the one you wanted and went to the bin where it was located. I have never seen this in the US but it was nice. Recently I repaired a motor...

Dr. Martin McElya, Neighborhood Medical Center, 5917 Belt Line Rd, Dallas, TX 75254, 972-726-6464 - From AOPA. He is our family doctor, and we are happy with him. He is also a pilot, but I do not think he is active.

Thanks, I will keep it in mind. I do not get to Denver much; we live in Dallas.

We were out there in the early 70's and again in the late 70's to early 80's. Dad said it was his best airline job. When were you out there? Picture of Dad, Jack, from Air Micronesia (Air Mike) The Early Years William Grimes It is on Amazon. This video was taken a few years before he got...
