How plane-crazy is your family? Assuming they are as nuts as the rest of us, I think you will want at least 4 days to see the show. As for which days, I don't think it really matters much. Stuff comes and goes across the entire week. The only exception is if they schedule one of the 'big'...

See if theres a flight into Appleton that's convenient/inexpensive. It's closer than Milwalkee.

Yup, its all about the trend. If you see that layer closing up, get down quick (its easily and quickly done if you dont let it surprise you). Also, yeah get your IFR and all that stress evaporates (sorry, cloud pun!)

You got a lot of good advice here. Just passing on my sympathy. Hang in there, and nobody got hurt!

Yeah cool, and here's a an article about it. Tks all! https://blog.aopa.org/aopa/2014/01/28/three-ways-to-start-an-instrument-approach-vectors-iaf-and-intermediate-fix-if/

Interesting and timely. I did the RNAV 20 into KDAN this weekend. The controller read me two notams, one of which was this Circling delete. Made me wonder why that would be deleted, and now I know!

I would think that NDBs will remain vital for commercial training, as they are still common overseas. No?

Pretty sure 2-33.

Yeah, and that is MPH.

Yup, looks like a 2-33. And yeah, nose skid.

I got yelled at once for picking my own taxiway at a delta in the absence of instructions from the tower. I was right of course, and my instructor at the time agreed. I also got yelled at once at the same delta for turning off on another (but closed) runway without being told to do so. That...

Sorry, but a rope break at low altitude is an emergency by every definition of the word.

I wasn't suggesting they kill the ILS, just the four-course-range based missed HAHAH

That approach is not long for this earth, me thinks... I mean, the North Bend VOR is right there, couldn't they build a hold based off that?
