How not to land a 767. Looks like they forgot they still needed to land the nose wheel.

I've heard people order pizza over the marine radio to be delivered to the guest dock at the marina before, so maybe you are in luck.

1955 Cessna 180. 1955 Golden Anniversary Oldsmobile And one with Bert Reynolds driving it in WW and the Dixie Dance Kings

There are Brail placards on the doors to the simulator bays at my airline, kinda makes ya wonder.o_O

Emergency descent is primarily a maneuver for pressurized high performance aircraft. The main reason you would do one is for a sudden uncontrolled pressurization loss. The purpose (and certification requirement) is to get from a high altitude cruise to an altitude with a breathable atmosphere in...

He isn't just cheap he is dishonest. How is this any different than walking out on the check at a restaurant?

Flank steak is even great if it's made into Fajitas.

Porterhouse, Ribeye, New York, even Prime Rib. It's all good.

You can get a one handed yoke from Eddie Trimmer in Willow Alaska if you want one.

They always staple the whole package (45-50 pages) in one big wad. To make it usable you need to redo everything.

Our briefings are fairly extensive, but a lot of verbage can be reduced by "standard company calls and procedures." Generally there are three parts: Crew briefing, which covers CRM/Sterile cockpit, Flight plan verification (correct tail number mainly) MEL/CDL items, WX, notams, Hazmat and if...

That's a great habit to get into. In 121 flying briefings are very formal but essentially cover the same things.

I landed at O'hare once, at about two in the morning and the Tower controller told us to "taxi to parking via any paved surface."

The long defunct Issaquah Parachute Center had cards that read "You Call, We Haul, You Fall."

Good luck retrofitting the majority of cargo fleets. Keep in mind cargo is where aging airplanes go to die. "Modern" cargo planes are B-757/767, MD-11F, MD-10 and A-300's. After airplanes are no longer economically viable as passenger planes they are converted to freighters. The latest are the...

Glad I'll be happily retired long before it happens.

I'm a little concerned about rock damage from the tailwheel also. But we will see when the time comes. On the plus side the tail light is the last non-LED light on the plane.

No VOR installed no IFR planned. So don't really care as long as it meets the requirement to have it. Or, I could just stay away from Anchorage airspace.

There is a tail light version also in the works if you don't want to replace your wingtip strobes. Since I don't really care about the "in" stuff, I am looking at this for my C-180.
