    Busted altitude

    Whenever ATC gives you a "confirm altimeter setting" or something similar ... they're probably trying to help you out. Years ago a private jet leaving TorC in New Mexico blasted straight into the restricted airspace for White Sands (the one that NEVER goes cold or allows traffic). ATC kept...

    And so it goes..

    I'm in the medical imaging field. Have to 100% agree with the good doctor. Also, if you want to add one to it, do NOT have a CIMT ultrasound for plaque accumulation either (carotid imtima-media thickness) ... and no EKG unless a cardiologist conducting it. My wife had an "abnormal EKG" at...

    Pilot threatened with arrest for helping NC victims of Hurricane Helene...excuse me?

    My nephew does guide trips and hunting and has several boats and flat boats in south Texas. After the Houston hurricane a few years ago, they traveled at their own expense with equipment to assist. They were bringing out more people than FEMA ... a local LEO told them to stop. My nephew could...

    As I looked at the first images before the message with the "magazine is out" ... I tried to guess which image would be the cover ... Jack is getting too good as I was thinking 1,5 and 6 for sure ... then paused and thought," Gee pretty much ANY of them":)

    Airports with a Hotel...

    Haven't been in awhile, but one of the best we had with multiple pilots was at Globe AZ (P13). Hotel-Casino just feet from the runway. You can get a front room and watch your plane all night if you're worried.

    Liability Only Insurance

    Was thinking about it as rates keep climbing despite no issues in over 20 years:( Called Avemco as they said they could be competitive via a mailing. Their website asked for info., but apparently wasn't enough ... got quoted for $7000 for the RV (paying $1100 now, started at $600 on the...

    Angina Pectoris, unspecified. What does this mean?

    Angina Pectoris, unspecified. What does this mean? In my field (medical imaging), it means the referring physician didn't drill down on the ICD 10 code list and chose one of the first they saw ... which results in the insurance telling the imaging provider,"we don't pay for any ICD 10 diagnosis...
