This is a very viable option, if the aircraft has the power to perform it. Power to perform is, just like an airplane. It's going to depend on fuel load, pax load, baggage, temp, alt, humidity and winds. In this particular case, the aircraft was way above, speed wise, what it should have been...

VFR flight into IMC can end up in any number of various conditions. It's not a safe bet to assume that if you inadvertently encounter IMC, you're going to end up in an ever tightening spiral dive. This assumption will likely cause you to make incorrect corrections, that may possibly worsen...

It's always possible, but insurance would be the big stickler... However, it's my guess (and this is only a guess) that they didn't really have a destination, as much as a journey. I think they wanted to remain low because they wanted to see things, specifically the Mamba camp. To file IFR...

Enjoy the flying. You've got plenty of time to study the books and prep for the tests before you take your checkride. PS. Never stop dancing on those pedals.

Well since we're all speculating... I'll speculate based on my experience and the pic posted previously. 153Knts in low vis scud running is just wrong! You're in a HELICOPTER! There are simple rules for this. 1. NEVER lose reference to the surface. 2. NEVER fly faster then you are willing to...

Welcome to PoA and aviation. I would hate to discourage anyone from pursuing aviation, but a lot has changed since I started flying over 40 years ago. The biggest problem with helicopters is the cost. One of the most expensive, and most worthless certificates you can get, is the Helicopter...

Kahiltna Glacier, Denali, Alaska. Land at 8500 feet, step out of the plane, clip into your skis, and away you go!

I wanna go ride with him.

You guys are on the wrong trail... here's your guy!

Generally you are not wrong, but once you share information, you no longer have any control of what others do with that information. I agree that the NSA should not be hacking your passwords or using backdoors, etc.. to view your content. But I'm also intelligent enough to realize that...

There is no such thing as true privacy online. None! However, in reference to you question, how do you know that someone on your list of allowed viewers, didn't then innocently post a picture or comment you made, on another one of their public sites? You don't. Never assume privacy online!

Please elaborate on this. How can information that you freely post on a social media site be protected in any way by the the forth amendment? And if you think it's a privacy issue, you waived any right you had to privacy (in regards to the content posted) when you willfully posted it on social...

Peter, when you started this you used the term, "clear and present danger to others", now you have changed it to "clear and present danger to the rights of the people". Those are two different things! Please stick with an argument so it can be debated accordingly. As for the theft issue, they...
