    Compass Swing who can and can not

    Yea, Me too... I think a letter of praise for all of Staches info is in order. The FAA rules might suck at times but don't shoot the messenger.

    Compass Swing who can and can not

    Stache is correct. How may of you have a compass card without the "radio on" box checked? If the compass was swung without the radios on &/or without the radio on box checked, you are not legal to fly IFR. Maybe a regular AP or an owner would not know this & forget to check the box...

    How many of you have tattoos?

    I got one on my upper arm @ 18. It is a nice piece of personal art & still looks good 20 yrs later. I can hid it at job interviews if need be. I can't understand people that get things on their neck & other places that cannot be hidden. If I ever get another, I would consider the Bart Simson...

    N/A How do you buy a house?

    Yes, you can get a real close idea of a rate, but not a guarantee without a number. If you shop 20 brokers with your SS#, you might wind up paying 8% fixed instead of 7%. Add that up over 30 yrs.... Only a real scum broker would order a report without your consent & by you not giving...

    N/A How do you buy a house?

    Maybe the first step should be to get you credit report & correct any mistakes... This can take a long time even if it is an obviously wrong item. Then talk to a mort broker and give them a copy of your report with your SS # blanked out. Shop with you report copy & dont give out you social #...

    Here we go, new flight restrictions, NYC

    I think is should start at the Brooklyn or Manhatten Bridge. Other than that it seems reasonable. The funny thing I see is that with the wording you can still fly fly to the Manhatten bridge and maybe even the Willeys as long as you stay over Brooklyn or Mahnatten & are not over the river...

    Landing at a Major Bravo

    I keep the plane High to avoid the wake. I cross the numbers at 500 ft and touch down mid runway. As far as speed, I keep it as fast as I am comfortable with untill 1 mile out. Then I slow to flap speed and add full flaps and lower the gear if I am lucky enought to be in a retract. You have as...

    Plane Crashes in to NYC Highrise

    Oh gezzz. I remember reading a post a few weeks ago where Skip? said don't try to do a U-Turn in the east river. From watching that clip it looks like a plane at 900 ft going up the river tried to maybe get LGA to let them go up & they tried to do a u-turn at the last min. I Sure hope this...

    Plane Crashes in to NYC Highrise

    This time of day i would bet it was a anfib going to land lower in the east river. You can fly up the east river to 59th st. At 72st you need to be talking to LGA tower. LGA usually wont let a regular fixed on the east river this time of day, but you can get FF 1500 @ ft sometimes.

    Plane Crashes in to NYC Highrise

    I guess the good point is that is wasn't on the west side. It mush have been talking to LGA tower. I am guessing that it was either a helicopter or an anfib.
