    Private airports vs. windmills

    Our airport was established in 1958. The law allows windmills next door. We want the setback restored.

    Private airports vs. windmills

    Hubby just phoned the writer of the letter. Law allows a windmill within the landing pattern. On windmills with lights, the lights are on only when the blades are turning. The lights are on only when the windmill is on the grid. When the connecting grid went down due to an ice storm, all the...

    Private airports vs. windmills

    The Oklahoma legislature has removed setback distance requirements from private airports that once required a 1-1/2 mile setback from a runway for windmills. The FAA and the Oklahoma Aeronautics Commission are also permitting unlit windmill construction. As a result, there are unlit windmill...

    Flying across the continent

    I have flown basically your route both directions several times in a 172 with the 180 hp engine. Go through the Tehachapi Pass. It is the easiest crossing of the California mountains. Unless the Santa Ana winds are blowing, it should not be a problem if you know you can make the altitude with...

    Thank you Jim. I appreciate you starting the map and paying for the account. It ought to be pretty easy for me to write a quick script to upload the list to Google Maps from the csv. Apparently I can create a Google map and then open it to anyone who knows the link to the map. Basically...

    Well, guys, Zee Maps has a paywall after 100 visits. Since I don't want to pay them $20/month for the privilege of looking at the map, I guess we'll have to find another way to keep track of each other. It's been fun.

    How long are unused fireworks safe?

    On the 4th of July, not all the fireworks were lit. They have sat in my kitchen ever since. Is it safe to set them off? How long is too long? The kids seem to have forgotten all about them. If I decide to get rid of them, how can I dispose of them. I didn't buy them. I don't know what...

    Consequences of medical after/during getting sport license

    Basic Med is not the same thing as Sport Pilot driver's license medical. With Basic Med, your implication is correct. You must have an FAA Medical first, then go with Basic Med. With Sport Pilot, you can use your driver's license as a medical. At one time, the rumor was that Basic Med would...

    Five months waiting for a checkride

    Agreed. There must be at least 2 people involved. I guess I explained myself poorly. A DPE can recommend a CFI to do the training and endorsement or he can do the training and endorsement and recommend another DPE for the checkride. In any case, the student is not bound to the school and...

    Come to my fly-in

    I thought about it, but don't feel like sleeping in a tent under the wing this year. In a monsoon rain. With tornado winds. And oven heat. Love the idea, though. Keep up the good work.
