Does this have to be recent or can I use my Private night dual for this requirement? I don't have the ACS at hand.

I fly pattern work at night in three TO and Landing increments to stay night current. I'm also working on Commercial and though I have dozens of night landings, my towered home airport is usually closed when I do night currency pattern work. I'll have to check logs to count night landings when...

When a friend visited Santa Paula Airport in 2015 there was a fire. In just minutes there was a TFR and a half dozen transient planes were stuck. One can't fly during a TFR without permission from the controlling authority, so he spoke with the head of aerial firefighting ops and asked if there...

Have any of you received permission to land at San Rafael? I have at other private airports, but CA35 didn't even answer the published phone number when I tried.

The G3X Touch has had an approximately five year lead on Garmin's certified systems, (as well as a far more intuitive interface.) The auto throttle might make for a more difficult installation, though. Autoland seems like a safer alternative, for a non-pilot passenger, to pulling a parachute.

No wrong answer. Tailwheel will teach you what those pedals are for, but careful, it might lead to EMT/Spin Training and then to aerobatics. All great fun and confidence boosting to learn.

POA is the right place for a single reasoned answer to your question.~

+1 for Stick and Rudder. From BoldMethod, "The answer is really simple - don't use rudder to tighten a turn." https://www.boldmethod.com/learn-to-fly/aerodynamics/slip-skid-stall/ Consider Emergency Maneuver Training to not only learn the theory behind skids, spins, etc., but to make...

I've taken dozens of Wings classes over the years, but when it's time for a BFR, and I'm not getting a new rating or cert., I fly with a CFI and work on a deficiency of mine (there are many) or a new skill I wish to acquire. I'm sure the Wings people mean well, but if you still have to fly with...

The ones I have are: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001CBC53G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but I'm sure the ones ElPaseo Pilot noted would be fine as well. Again, you're welcome to borrow, I'll be at WHP today, Saturday, late morning.

Good flying and nice video. Next time you'll have to give your daughter a cushion so she can see when she takes the controls. You're welcome to borrow, I'm also at WHP.

An undoctored photo of a R/C model airplane. If there's a pilot in that tiny plane, could be a squirrel.~

NextRad / ADS-B weather can be sufficient assuming you steer clear of serious weather. A few minutes' delay isn't likely to make a huge difference and ATC will call out the nasty stuff if your display misses it, which in my case hasn't happened yet. If you cut it real close, that might be a...

How do you know this message wasn't a hack on AOPA's forum? ~~~

I adjust the side tone of my GTN650 through the audio panel, mine is a Garmin GMA 245.

I wish I'd flown there with my last plane, much easier on grass. We once flew to Orcas Island only 16 miles south. Probably not going to fly the Lancair to a 2,200' grass strip, but it's a great idea. Thank you.

Looking for advice flying GA to Vancouver, BC. I've signed up for eAPIS and CanPass and have all the required documents on board. I subscribed to ForeFlight Canadian charts on on a primary and backup iPad. My questions: 1) Would you fly into Vancouver Intl. (CYVR,) Boundary Bay, or ? 2) I...

If you're going for food, Santa Ynez is the ticket. Take the KIZA crew car or walk (25 mins.) to SY Kitchen. Not cheap, but WAY better than most airport accessible food. https://www.yelp.com/biz/s-y-kitchen-santa-ynez

Icon was given an FAA waiver for an additional 250lb, on top of the 1,430lb. LSA Amphibian weight limit. They chose to add only 80 of those pounds for a total of 1,510 lbs. Other LSA restrictions still apply.
