Pilot is a pipeline patrol. He said the ELT battery caught fire & didn’t smell smoke until he was on final.

I use a Start Pac, but often have to wiggle the plug into the recepticle on my C-182T just right to get the negative current draws to go away.

That B-1B was at KMAF. Mishap was an engine failure that took out the adjacent engine as well. This problem at that time called for the crew to eject. When the aircraft commander started the eject sequence, the hatch(s) blew off but nothing else happened. That all occured about 10 miles from...

Trick question. Units must be consistant.

My only experience transiting R-5107B was while riding thru on a Southwest flight one Sunday. I understand it’s consistantly busy.

I fly all over NM in my C-T182T quite well. Range is great; speed good enough to daytrip Houston from my base.

Kinda reminds me of the (?) Texas Raiders B-17 nose art of a few years back before she got cold or whatever and covered up.

I recall being taught to not kick rudder to straighten up an overshot short final leg. So, be coordinated.

I cancelled plans to take my Scout Troop skiing at Ski Apache this weekend. Just all going camping on the S Llano river instead.

A relatively low time VFR pilot learning the utility of the G1000 is all about muscle memory. The G1000 offers a lot and the knobs and the information they get to is best learned on the ground. And, practice often. Watch the YouTube videos. Get Max Trescott’s book. The version of my G1000 is...

The POH for my C-T182T is silent as to shock cooling. Lyc TIO-540-AK1A It does mention that on extended let-downs to keep cowl flaps closed (unless hot conditions) so as to keep CHT at approximately two-thirds of the normal operating range (green arc: 200 degF to 500 degF).

I remember the picture of John Young on the first orbital shuttle mission wearing readers. Another definition of a badass old man pilot.

Mr Magoo as Schrooge.

Runways at KBOW aren’t even a mile long. Mishap pilot wadded his plane up beside the runway, it looks like. Did he even have time or distance to get disoriented or did he just hit something and run off the road?

tOSU is probably wishing they had played Mercer and that Bama had played OU for their OOC game.

I’ve not experienced any discomfort to the level of grounding myself after getting the flu shot. If anything, exercise & keep your arm limber to minimize any soreness. Maybe the next day it will be noticeable for some.

The POH for my C-T182T specifies 700 lb rated line for tiedown. I suppose when a load exceeding 700 lbf is imposed on the tiedown, I’ve got other problems.

The museum can be previewed fairly well on google streets. I plan a visit soon!

The POH for my C-182 says to use 700 lb test line for tie down. Perhaps after 700 lbf is applied to the tiedown rings something else will be the main problem?

Last year at KODO the new HondaJet was on demo tour and struck a coyote on takeoff, declared emergency and landed at KMAF. Believe the engine ingested some ‘yote debris.
