    Text of the Bill being sent to the President

    42 (dogs = 7 humans, at least in years, so I figured.... 7 dog pilots plus 35 dog passengers) Plus, more evidence that's the answer to life, the universe, and everything.

    Raptor Aircraft, Vaporware?

    Since it's a kit plane, I'm tempted to put cameras in the wingtips, back end, and nose for the pax and general observation.

    How to practice talking to the tower?

    Here's the procedure for going to the tower: 1. Call the tower, ask them if you can come visit. 2. Proceed with their instructions. Here is my last visit to the KPAE tower; Things you can see for free: Call the tower at KPAE and you can see the latest 737 MAX com in for a landing A 787-9...

    Text of the Bill being sent to the President

    While I understand your concern, someday you may not be in "good health", as defined by the FAA, and may have to had to "prove yourself innocent" to them. This law makes it, except in certain cases, between you and your doctor, who probably wouldn't want you flying, driving, or from reading...

    Challenge Air

    My youngest daughter, her brother, and Mrs. Thequick got to fly in Challenge Air at KPAE this weekend. The pilot lets her fly the plane, and she did great until she pushed forward. Then, she gave the controls back to the pilot, and said, "OK, I'm done. I don't want to hit the ground." Thank...

    Yeah, the "what is the 3rd word on 14 CFR 93.532" questions are silly.

    Raptor Aircraft, Vaporware?

    It was nice to see the (car) seats in there. Makes the vision that Mr. Muller has more "concrete".

    Third Class Medical Reform

    I'm with RotorDude. There are tons of people with CPAPs that were waiting for this. It's a shame that I went for my 3rd Class medical, but in a way, good. I've found out that my heart is good (which relieved my wife, b/c her first husband died at 32 of a heart attack), and that I'm healthy...

    quick survey about what you eat in the cockpit

    There's no air in them (or very little). We just had some at 5400 feet and no inflation, like chip bags. When twisting the cap open, the pressure equalizes so fast and mess free. Not sure about at 9000 though. Since the OP is being serious, I won't say, BBQ wings and Cheetos, with mentos and...

    Section 2307.b.3: (3) LOGBOOK.—The completed checklist shall be retained in the individual's logbook and made available on request. In my line of work, it's always better to quote the spec. This one is pretty black and white. The 3 cases for SI in the law (Section 2307.e.1) states: (1) IN...

    My Attempt at a $115 ADS-B Receiver Build for Foreflight

    On a side note, I'm using one of those car jump start batteries for my power pack. It has an EC5 connector (the blue one closest to the hammer handle) that I'm using for powering the headsets (12V Continuous), an a USB power connector (5V, Switched) for iPhone/Ipad/Raspberry Pi. The one I'm...

    Medical reform is passed out of House

    I've thought about going experimental, but my company's life insurance for accidents specifically calls out that they won't pay in a death in an experimental aircraft. Other aircraft, yes, but while piloting an experimental, no. I'll have to see how much they pay in the other cases, and put it...

    Question on CPAP compliance any AMEs in the house?

    Dude... do you have cameras in my house? :eek: As for the requirements, I'm sure that the doctors write these requirements, then send them to a lawyer, who screws them up, and then the doctors are trying to figure out what they required. To belabor the point (hey, I'm an engineer, and we...

    The part that has the definitions. It's on pp. 1-19 of this (which you get a copy of when you take the test) http://www.faa.gov/training_testing/testing/test_questions/media/sport_rec_private_akts.pdf I understand... Some people (like my son and I) are awesome test takers, but some of us are...
