    Potentially Forced Into HIMS Due To A Tattoo

    I know it’s American as apple pie to have the impulse to call Dewey, Cheatum, & Howe anytime our feelings get hurt, but that is unlikely to do any good in this situation (and in most situations actually.) Nothing is going to come of this. My more senior AME colleagues here might correct me, but...

    Those waiting on the 1st Class Medical SI (Initial) Decision

    My father is at the 6 month point waiting on 3rd class for what should have been a CACI-qualified condition. His AME didn’t know what he was doing. I even set him up with printed medical history, a letter from his doctor, and a blank CACI form. He should have walked out with a medical in his...

    Fire extinguisher in PA-28

    Thanks all for the replies. I think mounting behind the trim/flaps console as stated by a few here is the best place. The only problem I may run into is the passengers' audio jacks and USB chargers are in a box on that center hump but up against the rear seat. That extinguisher is small enough...

    Anyone have any eureka ideas regarding the ideal place to mount a fire extinguisher in an Archer II? https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/pspages/rta400.php?clickkey=26023

    Sleep Apnea Form 8500

    On the AME’s computer there is an entire page about sleep apnea and we have to select one of six options regarding sleep apnea risk or diagnosis/treatment based on the interview. Your AME will ask you.

    Facebook was probably down because they broke something while trying to destroy whistleblower evidence.

    My aviation claim to fame..........

    I totally could have sworn that was the elusive green flash converted to a ray of light as captured through a rapidly ascending King Air’s dirty windshield. The resemblance is amazing.

    And that why we preflight, folks

    I could make the reach with my right hand on the strainer and the left hand catching gas on a 172 P model I used to fly but I can’t quite get there on the N model I’m currently flying. Not sure what that’s about.

    OSA/SI question

    Mayo Clinic has an episode on their Clear Approach podcast that summarizes medical certification of OSA very well. Sorry no link. Google if you’re interested.

    What does a "normal" market look like?

    I am by no means an experienced pilot and I've never purchased an airplane, but I have been window shopping for the last 2-3 years and I'll give you some cost comparisons I have observed. When I started looking, I noticed that 6/300s would range around 70-120. Anything that wasn't a dog would...

    3rd Class Medical and Special Issuance Rejection

    I also am confused why or how that AME got medical records, unless the OP documented something in MedXpress that got the AME's attention, i.e. medications, medical history, doctors he has seen in the last 3 years (maybe a psychiatrist?), something like that. I'm a relatively new AME- only been...
