    What to do around Hartford?

    It's a pretty short flight from HFD, but the restaurant at BAF is pretty good.

    Arctic Air Cooler...

    Makes a HUGE difference in our Cirrus during the summer here when it can get up to 115 degrees. Today it was only 107 deg F, but it sure felt nice in the plane with the artic cooler blowing cool air forward. We have the 2 fan version.

    Customs info on foreflight

    Just use the online Acukwik website. That's where I grab all of the CBP phone numbers. http://acukwik.com/Customs.aspx?icao=kpbi

    Ramona ODP

    Keith, The way I read the ODP is like this: 1. Climb heading 268 to 2600 ft 2. [Climbing] right turn to intercept the GPY VOR R-336 to ROBNN 3. Proceed on course In step #2, you can turn right as long as you are above 2,600 ft and fly a heading that will intercept the R-336 prior to...

    Unhappy end to a NASA spin test - Bonanza

    Pretty wild footage. I cannot imagine trying to unbuckle and get myself out the door with that much rotation in the spin.

    PHX to MMSL - Does this plan look right?

    I'm on my smart phone so I can't post a long response but have fun in Cabo. MMSL is a great airport, people there are awesome. Really close to downtown.

    Proficiency Check

    Check your companies part 121 training program. Most likely, yes.

    Proficiency Check

    What are you going to do after you get the type? It depends what kind of flying you're going to do. A 61.56 BFR can't replace a type specific proficiency check if you are seeking PIC privileges in that type.

    G1000 failure

    Correct. Certain LRUs are powered by different avionic busses (aircraft specific).

    Airplane Based at Full Service FBO - Tipping?

    I have to agree. I've been there a few times in the last 6 months and it is consistently poor service. Their remodel is taking forever, I hate that darn trailer. I tip line guys for going above and beyond (and when I ask them service the lav). The line guys at our home base consistently...

    Verbal Warnings from 530W/430W terrain?

    The plane I used to fly had a 530W with TAWS on board and it would yell terrain warnings at you. Without TAWS, I don't believe it will transmit any aural warnings.

    TEC route below MEA?

    Hi Keith, What's the destination airport? We fly this route and variations of the other TEC routes all the time. The MVA is lower than the MEA in that area so they just issue 10,000 ft, with radar in operation. Since there is rarely IFR out here, I normally file and pick up airborne over...
