    Help VFR approach to WHITEMAN KWHP.

    Thanks Cabot... Yes I'm coming from the south, from San Diego. So even if speaking with SoCal, after the SFRA, how would you go and what altitudes? Thanks again...

    Help VFR approach to WHITEMAN KWHP.

    Hello guys, anyone familiar with KWHP WHITEMAN airport? How do you recommend approaching the airport VFR... there's so much conflicting airspace around, and I wouldn't want to fly the full IFR approach on a clear morning this Friday... Thanks!

    4th of July night flight BAD IDEA??

    OK guys, so I did the flight and it was amazing! I flew west of the KSAN Bravo to see the fireworks in the Mission Bay and Coronado area, but the best was the flight around the Del Mar Race Track (Del Mar Fair is currently going on), please take a look at this 30 second video. My wife and two...

    4th of July night flight BAD IDEA??

    I'm considering 1500 feet that keeps me under B for Miramar. Monitoring 122.750 for traffic and pretty much flying the airplane 100%. Leaving the sightseeing for my two daughters.

    4th of July night flight BAD IDEA??

    Anyone familiar with the San Diego airspace here thinks its a bad idea to fly tonight along the shoreline from Montgomery Field up to Oceanside back and forth to see the fireworks?? There is a TFR over downtown due to a PADRES game so that is out of the question and that is the area with most...

    I couldn't make the flight! The TAF which by the way became a reality called VLIFR with low visibility and lower than the approach ceilings... Missed my night flying seminar, darn.

    Departure Procedure from KSMO - HELP.

    Thanks a lot! that sounds simple enough and that is what I will do provided there are no clouds. Otherwise, will just get a clearance on the 800 and fly whatever they give me.

    Flying to KLAS (or not)

    Hello guys I am planning a flight to Vegas on the 26th (tomorrow), planning on Flying VFR from San Diego (CRQ), do you think I might find delays to land in KLAS for not being on an IFR plan? Will I get something like hold 30 minutes due to traffic kind of thing? If that is the case I might just...

    Low time pilot going to KSFO.

    Hey guys, I talked to tower, they told me that they don't have problems with smaller airplanes landing there (he told me a Piper Navajo just took off earlier today), but that the flow of traffic is controlled by approach and they will sequence me with the rest of the traffic, etc. I asked him...

    Low time pilot going to KSFO.

    Thank you all very much for the input guys! I think I might go to KSQL and maybe try SFO at a later time, but I'll make a decision after calling tower later today and see what they tell me regarding busy times. Any tip on flying over the Golden Gate on my way back if I do depart from KSQL?

    HELP NEEDED SMON17 TEC.

    Well, thanks guys. I take it that it is NORMAL and COMMON to receive clearances with changes in Victor Airways even where there is no named intersection. At 165 hours (with only probably 35 after my instruments rating) this is the first time it happens to me.

    HELP NEEDED SMON17 TEC.

    Hello guys, I am a low time instrument rated pilot. I flew this weekend from KCRQ to KSMO back and forth and filed IFR (although there was no IMC at all). I filed for my way back the SMON21 TEC route which I find very straight forward and easy to fly, but for my surprise, the clearance...
