Never heard of Steinholme so i went searching and discovered the pilots seem to be passionate about pizza. And with that, I will exit my hijck of this thread. I read (past tense) crash threads to learn how things go wrong in the hopes I could avoid making the same mistakes.

Sorry

Thank you for that. Not to worry, I've taken up baking artisanal breads and pizza (Fen Forkish is my god)...as long as I don't set the house on fire, the worst that happens is I eat my mistakes!

The unplanned off-airport landing happened last November (detailed in a long 'Lessons Learned' post including links to photos and the CloudAhoy log of the flight). It was a rental. My insurance paid for part of the plane, the flight business opted not to file on their insurance, and they had a...

I can only speak for myself. It was 3 minutes from engine out to being upside down in a cow pasture. The first 2 minutes 55 seconds were all about trying to restart and then getting on the ground. There was no panic, no thoughts of 'last day of my life' just, find a field, get lined up, get...

The 'tell' for me was the radio. I'd be busy flying the plane, planning my next change (altitude, direction, speed), watching for traffic, and suddenly realize someone had said something on the radio...who was it, where were they, was it important??? Once some of the routine actions of flying...

What happens if GPS goes down? Quite a lot.

This is an old syndrome.

I used this in a Skycatcher (rental). I was concerned that the two screw points might put undue pressure on the plastic glareshield lip so I wrapped a piece of wood (tongue depressor/paint stick thing) in duct tape and used that to sit between the shield and the points to distribute the pressure...

Those pesky butterflies screw up the forecast every darn time.

...You might add an item to mentally review the immediate physical actions once motions stops. Stress will be high and people can lose up to 90% of their mental processing under stress. If you review the physical motions to take, it will be in your short term memory and will be easier to...

I apologize if this has already been posted but I didn't read the entire 15 pages of this thread. There have been several questions about the forces required to manually change stab trim. While this video doesn't provide a numerical answer, and they're in a simulator, it does appear that it's...

Calories in - calories out = delta(weight). Nutritional studies are notoriously difficult to do properly because the tools for tracking humans are really bad. Eat a balanced diet. Exercise. Have good genes. Live long and prosper. Keep track of what you eat. I use MyFitnessPal. It's linked to my...

I do that. I have a bad habit of not downloading the required charts before I leave home so sometimes the app is 'flying' over nothing. I find it interesting to identify ground features on the chart. Since I mostly flew at below 5000', trying to figure out how far away <feature> is from the...

Holy crap...flying <edit> sawblades (not chainsaws)? One pilot who flies and manages the whirling blades? Pilot was alert when taken to the hospital. I wish him the best. Some pics here

He does some really nice long form cartoons also. I totally identify with this one. He has a couple on running that are pretty good too.

Your best bet is to use Android coding forums or StackOverflow. Java makes my head hurt...best of luck getting this to work
