Absolutely! We have a 4/22 crosswind runway here at KSWO, my home base.

19/35? I'm just picking nits here, but you mean 19/01, correct? Or 17/35? Although, I would love to see the odd shape of a 19/35-oriented runway! :rofl:

This is the truth! Although, don't forget good ol' 16/34 at Guthrie (GOK), Russ! :biggrin:

I'd love to know what it takes for a Class D to get radar services. The one I call home is constantly busy (especially with the local university's aviation department added to the mix), just added a couple of regional airline departures/arrivals and it seems like radar capabilities would be...

I think the disclaimer is probably a good idea, even though it reeks of frivolity. Granted, I'm not getting views in the quantities of FlightChops, SteveO or MrAviation, but you never know how many folks will watch your video(s). Editing for time and content can remove a lot of context. You...

Sunrise-ish pic here...

I like having the reputation and reliability of the full service route, personally. The warranty on repairs and replacement is nice to have, as well. Given the fact I've had the issue from childhood and I don't get aids but once every 5-10 years, but use every day, I bite the bullet on the cost...

I captured video of every lesson of mine from #3 to before my checkride, and just about every flight I've taken thereafter. I agree that it should not be the focus at all (set and forget, as you said) - nor should ANY technical do-dads in your primary training - but the ability to debrief every...

I've worn hearing aids since I was 4 years old, so it's always been an issue for me. So, I can't speak to the "threshold" at which you'd REALLY want to bite the bullet. However, I will say that if you find yourself asking for clarification or find others getting frustrated with repeating...

I echo all of above. Also, even though you'll be testing to new ACS, and this video covers PTS, I think it's some good viewing.

Great video! Got a few good laughs from me at the office with that one.

Good to hear things are going well! Here's to a quick recovery!

I JUST watched "The Last Man on the Moon" on Netflix about 5 days ago. Admirable guy. RIP

The plane I received my initial instruction in was horrible, but I learned of this after the fact. The interior was fine and had old radios and whatnot, but that wasn't the issue. Things started becoming suspicious to me when I kept getting voltage warning lights and having to reset the master...

I was curious about this, as well. I'm not a night flyer (and don't intend to be one), but I wonder if the whole "Not valid for night flying or color signal control" thing is null.

That is correct - it's just another identifier in case you crash. And the reason I know my (and your) answer above is true, is because when my AME was making a rather detailed note on my very simple tattoo during my last medical, I asked him why he was doing so. His answer was "Well, it's...

So, we have the rule and I see that the Medical Education stuff is supposed to be out by March. Safe to imagine that the "official" checklist and form to be signed by physician will come out around the same time?

I wonder how this will work. If one was diagnosed with sleep apnea and was self-grounding, do they still need to go to get an SI?

That looks pretty cool. It seems the reception could be questionable without the external antennas, such as you'd see on others, like Flightbox. I wonder how it is.

Oof. Tough call. "Hey, doc - think you could just uhhh...you know...maybe pencil whip that part of the exam? ::wink, wink::" :lol:
