    Hypothetically speaking ... SI type event while on Basic Med?

    I seriously hope this doesn't turn into an argument about what could be/should be regarding BasicMed and 3rd Class SI medicals ... if there is a second avenue to pursue a resolution, I really want to find out. As my reading and research revealed, with concurrence above, as well as AOPA Medical...

    Hypothetically speaking ... SI type event while on Basic Med?

    not sure I follow your question, but he's on BasicMed now - the TIA event appears to require reapplying for 3rd class with SI for neurological interruption and then back to SI ... yes? No?

    Hypothetically speaking ... SI type event while on Basic Med?

    Well, my friend exhibited symptoms of a TIA, according to the doc, at least that's what was on the order for the CT. 10 minutes of aphasia type symptoms on the phone with his wife - couldn't name the towns or exits on the freeway while driving, telling her where he was, with absolutely no other...

    I hatred tuna casserole[rant]

    I assume it was a typo (or more help from Siri and other auto-correct tools) in the OP and we all just jumped on it in jest? I hatred Siri autocorrect so bad that I'm gonna Sale my eye phone and go back to dial up.

    Hypothetically speaking ... SI type event while on Basic Med?

    Let's say an airman who's flying on Basic Med has some kind of event that would trigger needing to get a Special Issuance if said airman was on a Third Class medical. What's the process? So, asking for a friend of course ...

    I hatred tuna casserole[rant]

    My love of herring in cream sauce is almost matched by my love of herring in wine sauce. Must be my Viking roots. But that doesn’t explain my violent hatred of lutefisk. That must be my self-preservation instincts kicking in.

    BEEF ribs!

    concur on the "can seldom find them" ... the beef ribs they try to sell around here are so trimmed down they would hardly qualify for dog bone treats. I guess I need to hit up the better specialty meat markets. oh yeah - I like Franklin's videos. Have followed him for a while now.

    Week 2 of Zodiac CH650 Build

    Nice looking table! Good job! Sounds like you've found your Spec to Reality factor ... sounds like mine! Disclaimer - I've never built an airplane, but have run into numerous Spec vs Reality multipliers on my projects.

    Thick smoke affect radio comms?

    Got this question from a club member who was flying today, wondering if thick smoke can affect radio comms? ------------------ Returning to BJC yesterday for more than an hour we experienced poor radio communications. Continuous background static and the controllers barely audible at times...

    Thinking about a Bus/RV

    This is something I sent to a airplane co-owner who was flying up to Rapid City. ——————————————————- Have fun! The Black Hills was a great place to grow up! However, once you grow up in a tourist area, I believe you're jaded for life, so my apology ahead of time for "some attitude". At KRAP...

    Thinking about a Bus/RV

    I grew up in the Black Hills. I’ve got a couple of “what to do there” write ups I’ve done I the past. I’ll dig around and post one up if you want it.

    Home remodel costs

    Yeah we can’t get on the HGTV shows ... our son-in-law produces shows that HGTV airs. Family connection disqualifies. :)

    Home remodel costs

    Is there some rule of thumb for major remodel costs? I'm floating a hare-brained idea to counter my wife's "we should just move" idea .... I know, I know - futile effort, but I want to at least offer up a someone educated proposal. Real Estate continues to sky-rocket in Colorado. our house...

    FB **** Show!

    I occasionally scan Farcebook for friends and family goings on, but NextDoor has driven me far far away - just can't handle the local whining, and last time I looked at it, it popped up some touchy feely agreement to play nice in the sandbox and don't point out ignorance .... "yeah, no ...
