I second WillWood field at Cape May (KWWD). Decent food, decent prices. Just don't order the "chili", it's not chili. Damn dumbazz Yankees put beans in it, making it a bean stew instead. Avoid the grumpy old waitress, she's no fun. And btw, ask Dover approach for a lowpass. Make sure you have...

Imagine the officer calling the tow truck ... "... and bring the biggest truck y'all got" "Ohhhhh-kay? What are we towing?" "Just get here, you wouldn't believe it if I told you".

More power to them. *shrug*

My vote for not using "crashes" would be for a broader spectrum of posts, such as off-airport landings that did not result in crashes. Unless the mods would create a second new forum for such flight mishaps. But I thought it would be more complicated. Either way, one or two sub-forums would be...

Greetings, I will be traveling through KTYS and was wondering whether there is any other option besides getting raped $35 for overnight parking at the monopolistic FBO on field. Is there any free parking (tie-downs) like at some other airports I have been to? Or does anybody here have any...

Good job, good ADM, glad you had fun and enjoyed the new rating. That's what it's all about. Btw, your instructor should have taught you a long time ago the difference between VFR/VMC and IFR/IMC. They are NOT interchangeable. But no big deal, newbies make newbie mistakes, we're all human...

"He was able to set the plane down in a plowed field without incident." From the pictures and videos, that sure looks like a rough plowed field. How he did not bury the nosewheel and flip the bird over is beyond me. Had I attempted a landing in that rough field, I would have probably left the...

For decades, I've been saying that I fear the day when crooks figure out that GA airplanes are: A) loaded with expensive goodies that can be sold on fleaBay for drug money B) locked with only an old Chevy key or easily pried open With news reports like these spreading on all social media, I...

Windblows 10 does have plenty of sleep problems. We've seen many at work as well (since most of the new laptops come with this virus) and our technician resolved it via some SW updates and some BIOS flashes. (yes, it is a SW problem) I know when I looked into it, the Internet was full of...

This has been done a countless times. If you have the money to pay upfront, you can save yourself a decent amount in rent, aggravation in scheduling and learn a lot about ownership in the process. And the airplane is always there in the same condition you left it in. No other students breaking...

To hack this airplane, you'd need a hacksaw. They can try to hack my airplane. Whatever. I am so scared that my altimeter might get a virus, I won't sleep tonight. :D

*knock on fuselage* "License and registration please" "Here's my pilot license and here's the airplane registration. Is there a problem, officer?" :D "Um .... "

Consider the stress level on the pilot. Not everybody performs flawlessly and calmly under pressure. If you do, great. If you don't know just yet, you need to wait for a true engine-out situation to find out. Given the circumstances, the landing wasn't the worst. He's alive and safe. And didn't...

Mods, under the current peer pressure, any chance y'all would reconsider, for the benefit of the community? As for the name, I tend to agree that "Crashes" would be a little too much for the weak ones so maybe "Aviation mishaps" would work? That way, even successful off-airport landings could...

I saw part of it and turned that **** off. Typical hyped-up crap spewing from the narrator's stinkhole. I'm gonna be there in a few weeks on a cruiser, taking it slow, enjoying the scenery, not racing "to the death", as the overly biased documentary would make you believe. Then again, truth...

To narrow the advice down some, we gotta ask first what type of communication.

Bob Hoover used to do aerobatics on 0 engines. *shrug* Can't argue with the master!

Haven't had to use that one just yet (though thinking back, I was in a pretty ripe situation for that comment). But I have requested a return to the airport twice in the past because "someone forgot to latch my door". :D

And how would it matter to rich guy? Remember, laws are for us regular Joes, not for rich people. *shrug*

Sounds like the study expired and was replaced with a new one? *shrug* We gotta be careful what links we click, especially hidden links from within PDFs etc. Don't want to get Rick-rolled again, though it's fun once. :) Is this the correct link to the new study?
