Hi Jeff767, yeah, I think I botched the altitudes as they were pressure on flight aware - so many were in fact inside the B actually. Interesting things to note though - I made that observation while watching last Saturday and the ones that were close were likely visual approaches. It seems the...

Yeah, you know I looked back at it just a moment ago and they were in fact doing as you suggested, What’s interesting is how they were setting some of them up for the approach yesterday versus today. Today they are bringing them all out in to the lake and turning them onto the localizer about 20...

For your own well-being you need to be talking to folks when you are flying under and/or immediately adjacent to B and C airspace. So yesterday, I was watching ORD arrivals on on flightradr 24. In particular, I was looking at arrivals from the North being vectored to join the localizer(s) for...

Things have gotten quiet on this thread and since it’s New Year’s Eve I’ll stir things up - this gentlemen needs to buy a Duke!

Concur, It's just interesting he didn't fire the bottle.

Believe it or not - the makes the most rationale sense here.

My father was a Plastic Surgeon - he owned a Duke, but never had time to fly that pig. My parents encouraged me to be a College Professor - Business, I make good money but not Plastic Surgeon money. I own a Warrior and I was able to fly it over 100 hours this summer. My parents said you should...

Actually, as I understand it, what’s running out are out of production integrated chips which rarely fail on these units. Thus, some repairs will increasingly become impossible but most should still be doable for years to come. They’ve sold over 120,000 of these units so I do not think they’ll...

It’s a continuum with developable compensatory mechanisms - moreover, it has positive attributes that may be advantageous in certain situations. At it’s simplest level it may be our attempt to explain behavior at the extremes of normalcy. Many times these are just really quirky folks those who...

So I’ve reported your post to the moderators as I do not appreciate being called either ignorant or prejudiced- that’s what’s called bullying.

No - dead private pilots and their families who sleep with the fishes - never had a chance to use that before. They’ve had a couple of bad night accidents with folks leaving out of there at night after dinner - it’s a black hole departure right over the Gulf.You’ve obviously got an affinity...

Been to Venice, Florida lately - at night???

Well I'm a dumb a-s and misread the P manual it's actually 51KCAS - maybe they are picking on Pipers?

No, that's what they have to have to sign someone off for night. Let's hope they've got more!

Okay but why note include the legacy 4 place cruisers? They talk about promoting safety, but we all have to agree that all these sport pilots would be way safer in an old spam can 172.

Ok I'll bite - here's an example. To provide the night sign off as an instructor all you need to do is be night eligible yourself. Hey, I'm going to teach you how to fly at night when I've only got three night hours myself. I'm not denigrating the sport pilot CFIs -but with only three hours of...

Hey folks, I think one critical aspect of the rule is if you can modify existing designs to get them to meet these new criteria as sport pilot eligible aircraft. Lots of existing aircraft have access to various STC based modifications that can get the vs1 calibrated down to these requirements...

Warrior stalls at 50 - Archer 54

Sorry I don't read things as good as I used to - I see now install costs are not the issue since you'll be doing the install as an employee.

As before the KMA20 is old but not a bad unit - I've got one and plan to switch it for a PMA8000G when it quits - problem (I suppose) is that it will not give up the ghost and I refuse to spend the 4 to 5 AMUs until then. How about your intercom - that's really critical in this discussion -...
