It measures the distance on a map. I have one. Let me see if it has instructions. I think.

Hmmm, I hate doing performance reviews. I see a potential application here.

:yeahthat: Commander in Chief of the military only. Not sure what the proper term is for the executive departments. Chief Executive? Maybe a government or political science wonk can help us out.

Doesn’t the Garmin Virb camera integrate and display selected instrumentation? Heading, altitude,mspeed, etc? Did they discontinue it? Haven’t heard of it in a while. OP, I know Martin Pauly and Wolficorn have both made “my video on how I make flying videos.” I’m sure there are others...

Over the holidays the Transportation secretary was on the news shows ranting about Southwest Airlines and declaring how he was going to hold them accountable for the sin of making a poor business decision on how to invest their profits (my assessment; YMMV). I'll look to see if he is on the...

If you get far enough south and west, fly along the Rio Grande for a while.

I'm in, weather and plane availability permitting. JCT is fenced and gated and no longer regularly attended, so we'd need to make prior arrangements to be sure we can get back in. The former airport manager, who is now buried under the windsock, told me the Junction Coopers is not affiliated...

Sunday afternoon conga line into Oshkosh. Chicago shoreline and St Louis riverfront tours on the way home from OSH. Picking my way around, under, and through a stalled front between Lubbock and Amarillo enroute to Denver. Angel Flight blood run.

Isn't this the situation everyone was in 30 years ago before there was such a thing as AWOS/ASOS, or an internet?

Roll your own. I advertised for partners on Craigslist. Found two partners and we made an offer on a plane owned by another partnership. One of them did not want to sell, so we invited him to join us. Almost 10 yrs later three of the four of us are still in. One share has turned over a couple...

I have a brother-in-law who is a retired Stillwater firefighter. The fire station on the field is only manned as needed. I think the PPR is primarily about scheduling the fire department to come man the fire station. There may have been “permission” to land with 25 passengers, but not...

The football teams come in/out in at least 737-class aircraft.

1. Charlie Brown 2. Grinch (Boris Karloff version) Yule log every year:

Oh my. Can't decide if that is a very clever or very ironic name, given the application. Same marketing company that gave Latin America the Chevy Nova?

Not going to go to the trouble to find it again, but I researched this a few years ago and found a study done by (or sponsored by) DoD that recommended Arial font and minimum 14 pt for cockpit checklists, so that's what I converted to and works well for me. Normally I use +1.25 readers for...

Probably not a utensil per se, but conducive to portion control which translates to healthier eating ... a digital kitchen scale.

Find an old sectional and compare it to a current one. Hitting a tower scares me more than an engine out. Maybe shouldn’t, but does.

I did monofocal and wear readers as needed. I was offered the multifocal, but the dr did not push them hard. The deciding point for me was when he said he still could not guarantee I would not need some kind of glasses. Similarly, my sister indulged in the lenses that were supposed (but again...

Bigger earcups?

Ah, ok. Hard to go wrong with Legos for boys that age.
