    Instrument safety pilot capable

    The requirement for high performance and complex endorsements were created after receiving my training. Obviously a safety pilot with a ppl license and current in a 172 can log time as the safety pilot when his partner is under the hood in a 172. But may the same pilot fly as the right seat...

    Email provider filing bankruptcy

    Yes, have 7 email addresses. Four of them are from the same Frontier ISP (wife's, personal, two for my business), the fifth from an old ISP that is really slow for questionable information where I do not want to provide a normal email address and a sixth one for overseas correspondence only on...

    As it turns out my company’s websites use Godaddy’s services. There is an info@ e-mail address on each website. We can add additional email addresses to our already established domain name for $5/month for each address. https://www.prometservices.com/

    Email provider filing bankruptcy

    Just found out that our email provider is filing for bankruptcy, Frontier. I am wondering if they might be purchased or could reorganize? Should we wait to change providers to see what the outcome might be or immediately make a switch? I dread changing email addresses. It seems like not all...

    Quick fuel stop question.

    Debris from the underground tank plugged the filter in the airport's fuel pump. The pump blew out a chunk of the fuel filter and into my tanks. A picture of some of the debris taken from the airplane system screen is attached. Part of the filter element partially plugged the fuel injectors...

    Quick fuel stop question.

    If you are planning a fuel stop at a small rural airport check ahead of time to make sure they have an above ground fuel tank. I will not fill at an airport with a buried tank anymore, learned an expensive lesson!

    What's under the hood

    The above are good, I would briefly discuss the differences of air cooled aircraft engines vs water cooled auto engines. You might point out that birds are prone to building nests inside the cowling. For example the Cardinal RG has the oil cooler behind the last cylinder on the pilot’s side and...

    406 ELT Pirep ?

    The bird is in the shop for it's annual and due for a new ELT battery, an older 121.5 unit. Aircraft Spruce has a ARTEX 345 kit with the ELT, tray, antenna and new switch for $549. This unit broadcasts on both frequencies and specs show GPS accuracy stated at 100 meters. Is this the best...

    Most Reliable Plane You've Owned vs. Least Reliable

    History with three owned airplanes. Most reliable was my 1948 CESSNA 140. It had the simplest systems, no training wheel in the front and initially I didn’t expect the pre whistle stop to work anyway, broke a flap bracket once ( exciting when you are at 300 feet on final and one flap blows up...

    C150 Yoke Grips

    Very neat, I used to own N2313V. Put about 800 hours on it and wish I still had it. I think it is located somewhere in Texas also.
