So a CFI giving hood training to a LSA student needs a medical? FARS say you have to a medical to be safety pilot. That would say to me a Light Sport Instructor would need a medical to complete the job.

With built-in Bluetooth® capability, GDL 39 can wirelessly send the data it collects to devices running Garmin Pilot, as well as the aera® 795/796. GDL 39 collects and stores all available traffic and weather data in your vicinity so it can be available as soon as you turn on your display. It's...

Mode-s and adsb out transponders have a secret place to enter Visa card number. No number no clerance. :)

Usually close to Class B areas there are kind of standard entry and exit procedures from the area, which are usually Radar vectors to some Fix in the direction you are going. You did not share with us the specific location and airport you are departing from so we cant look at a chart, but given...

Get your partial panel down pat

I instruct at an airport right under Class B. Dual is never a problem I know what I am doing and where I am. I educate the student very well, then: my custom pre-solo exam has questions designed to demonstrate that they are proficient, if they bust it and FAA talks to me I have tons of...

The traffic you,re getting is the older TIS traffic and is only broadcast around some terminal areas, usually class B or C areas. You will notice that if you fly far enough away from the terminal area you will get a Traffic Not Available annunciation. This TIS traffic is considered legacy and...

330es manual, Selects the standby mode. When in standby mode, the transponder does not reply to any interrogations. Pressing and holding the STBY key selects ground (GND) mode if Automated Airborne Determination is not otherwise selected from another source. When GND is annunciated, the...

Those prices are outrageous. I pulled a King KT76a, sold it for $200 and bought a brand new 330es and had it hooked to my 430w for $4200. Atlantic at KDVT a year ago. If you,ve got an old transponder smartest move is to replace it if you have an approved position source to hook up to...

69 yo snd they put me in an F22 Raptor, I could do that

Hm, maybe every surgeon should have a 3rd class medical

Plan on Airlines, after you get a license, then summer, fall flying might work with airline backup if weather sours on you.

Its tough to be an Avionics shop in Washington. Because of Sales Tax everyone goes South to Oregon for anything that costs much. An automatic 10 percent discount. That's the reason Pacific Coast Avionics relocated from Auburn, WA to Aurora, OR years ago.

Drivers dont get BFR,s, pilots do.

Bob, dont you still need a Flight Review every two years. Any CFI in his/her right mind wont sign someone off who cant perform to standards. This will be a good gate on the bumblers, I,ve done this with guys who had medicals, denied to confirm the Flight Review because it was obivious they...

Yes, 91.9

Thats a gem :)

True, especially using DUATS reporting stations. In the past I noticed descrepancies from flight planners and my manual interpolation for interim waypoints. Investigating this I found that some flight planners use proprietary algorithums to calculate wind plan for a flight. Call tech support...

Nope, you are still on an IFR clearance, all that changes is Altitude rules, but you must still operate above MEA or MORA as appropriate for direct routing.
