    For my Rotorheads- What happened here?

    If'n ye wantin' to split thee hairs... NO. Without a three page long diatribe that spawns arguments between helo pilots the world over - LTE is a wind produced effect, the running out of tail rotor at high altitude is a running out of power or LTA loss tailrotor authority, the tail rotor is...

    For my Rotorheads- What happened here?

    Without being able to see the anti torque pedals (whether or not the pilot gave it all she got or not) and/or the torque gauge - my best guess is its a pilot induced dumbassery. Came in shallow and slow at what looks to be a relatively high altitude at who knows how hot with little to no wind -...

    That would fix the emer heat but the reverser valve is inop and heat pump doesn't work as well as the bottom of the condenser being completely rotted out

    Thanks for all the input. I know a small amount about HVAC so the not overbuying is definitely on my mind. I've been trying to remotely manage this while flying for the Regionals and maintaining my Air Guard career. I haven't met any of the contractors personally as my Dad has been trying to...

    Envoy Cadet Program

    ^^^ This X 1000 = That ^^^^ the ONLY cadet type program that should ever be considered is if you found one that gave you a seniority number i.e. Trans States has a Reserve Your Seniority program - I don't have any idea if its worth a darn but point being, no seniority = no commitment (unless...

    Anyone gone back to a passive headset after using noise cancelling?

    I wore the David Clarks in the RJ the past few trips just for the sake of not having to lug my own headset along for the commute. It wasn't quite as bad as I remembered. I also took my DCs with me to the local airport to bang around in the old Cessna. Again, not as bad as I remember. I've been...

    Need to put a new system in the house I recently bought. I grossly underestimated the cost of a new system when I bid the purchase of the house. So I'm looking for two cents worth on what I could get by on if I choose to go bare minimum and how much I would actually save on electricity if I...

    Congress(wo)man calls for aviation safety hearings...

    If they actually cared about safety they would make a determination on max cabin temperatures for when the APU is deferred and little babies are almost dying in the back... or make a statement about seat pitch and thrombosis... or seat width and how much your back hurts after having to sit...

    Deciphering wind speeds from isobars

    I don't know. I thought it was an interesting question and that was the first thing that came up in Google. I just joined the 159 Weather Flight with the Florida Air Guard - I hadn't been to retraining yet but I'll ask around the shop this weekend and see if there are any rules of thumb for this.

    Questions for the CFI's

    As far as the level off and flare goes my primary instructor broke it down very simply like this - "move the controls whatever amount you need to move them at a rate that corresponds with what is happening" In other words if after the level off you are descending quickly then you flare quickly...
