    Area 51 Raid

    I just looked up the Area 51 restricted area and realized it goes from the surface to unlimited. I was really hoping it only went up to FL600, then I could at least formulate a plan to fly over...

    New GoPro, Tips?

    Alright, so I picked up a GoPro Hero 7 Black and am planning on videoing some of my flight to OSH and the arrival and becoming YouTube famous like Brian with a Y. Maybe I’ll quit my day job too. In all seriousness I went up for a flight today and it recorded about an hour before it died. Do...

    All2Fly Flight Academy

    Good suggestion! He should be in the know especially at LZU.

    All2Fly Flight Academy

    It’s been a few years since I flew with them. The instructors I flew with there have moved on. I did my private with The Flight School of Gwinnett and had a great instructor, but the management and mx really seemed to be a little lacking. I think they have new owners now so it may be better...

    All2Fly Flight Academy

    I contacted them about getting a few hours in a complex plane they had and they wanted to have a pre meeting to discuss my training objectives before they’d talk about setting up a flight. They seemed a little odd for me at the time. For a quality flight school I’d recommend advanced aviation...

    ForeFlight 11.6 released today: 3D Review, Map Annotation, Instructor Tools

    So far I’ve added frequencies and runway numbers to a few private airports I fly too. I’m missing the ability to delete a specifically added note after I’ve already added others, but I’m guessing that will be coming soon.

    ForeFlight 11.6 released today: 3D Review, Map Annotation, Instructor Tools

    I saw everything except the 3D stuff when I just tested it. For 3D it wants me to upgrade from $200 plan to $300 plan. Not that I need the 3D info. Map annotations and audible checklist did work for me though and may be useful in the future.

    ForeFlight 11.6 released today: 3D Review, Map Annotation, Instructor Tools

    I think all the new features are just for the $300 subscription level, so just don't subscribe to that and you should be ok. I did not look too closely to verify this though and may not be correct.

    180° turn; distance calculations

    This site shows how to calculate the radius of the turn. Use this and double it for the turn diameter. http://www.flightlearnings.com/2009/08/26/radius-of-turn/ Disclaimer: I just found this from googling

    New iPad for Flying

    I used to use a mini but once it started slowing down I got a 9.7” pro. It works really well, but it is a bit large. It works great for solo flying as I can suction cup it to the pax side of the plane, but if I were to be buying a new one today I would get the new mini. I’ve found myself...

    Engine failure in a twin - how soon do you land?

    Im a single engine pilot but wouldn’t continuing on one engine allow you to burn off some fuel/weight which I’m guessing would be helpful during the approach and landing.

    Flying High and O2

    So I stopped by at the FBO and they did not have anything to fill the CGA870 valve on my tank. I’m going to stop by the local gas shops in person next week and see if I can do better than them just telling me they can’t fill the med bottles without a RX. If that doesn’t work I’ll either buy...

    Updated Database for Garmin 400/500 Trainer

    Thanks for letting me know the database was the 2015/2016 one. I think I’ve got a more current one on my other computer that I’ll try to check tonight and upload somewhere that I can post a link to.

    General Aviation Parking saturation?

    I’m thinking he’s talking about parking his plane at OSH but camping in Scholler. Asking about if the parking fills up.

    Flying High and O2

    Thanks for the info. The tank is stamped 2015 so I’ve got a little time left before the test is due again. The regulator looks brand new. Once I get it filled I’ll connect everything up and briefly test it before I go up in the plane and use it. I called a local scuba place and a...

    Flying High and O2

    I’ve done a few flights at 10.5 and 11.5 at night and never checked my SpO2 levels. I picked up a pulse oximeter and would see 95-98% on the ground. I took a 4.5 hour flight each way this weekend (my longest flight yet) and flew at 8000 there and 9000 back. I was surprised to see a lower...
