    Small Plane Runs Off Taxiway, Hits Fence at Love Field

    That's what he gets for not watching his left wing. It (they) will turn on you every time! ;) :lol: My sincerest apologies to the management council. In the spirit of the MC Geico has determined a 3 hour self suspension (for talking politics outside the SZ) is in order. The time is 6:30 CST

    Any old timers fly "A's & N's" ?

    And over where the radio tower was is called "a cone of silence". I asked my 80 year old helo CFI and he said he flew them regularly a long time ago. They actually worked quite well at the time.

    What to do if you cannot understand ATC

    Yea, saying "Student Pilot" in those situations might not work. :no: :mad:

    What to do if you cannot understand ATC

    Dr. Bruce Chien is a good man!

    I met Dr. Bruce for the first time at Gaston's. What a passionate gentleman. His dedication and focus on keeping us flying knows no bounds. He pushes the envelope in his quest to define and clarify FAA regs. He is truly an asset to the aviation community.
