    Opinions on Accelerated Commercial courses

    I heard the story as well. I had hoped that by posting in the PoA forum, someone might join the discussion and provide some recent experience. Their website has a very compelling offer, but I think it needs confirmation.

    Cessena TTx from FXE (Fort Lauderdale) to KTEB (New Jersey)

    You've received a lot of good advice on flight planning, but I'd like to echo those who suggested you plan to arrive at an airport other than TEB. I earned my PPL at Teterboro in 2000 time-frame back when it was GA friendly. I joined a flyingclub that was hosted there and spent quite a bit of...

Unfortunately, I'm now in a position where time is a premium. I've...

    How to interpret Sigma-Tek attitude indicator?

    I’m flying a rental aircraft with an older style Sigma-Tek AI (an s3326-1). Can anyone tell me what the marked but unlabeled positive pitch angles are? I assume they are 5 and 10 degrees of pitch but can’t find authoritative answer. Thanks
