She had no idea. She was texting the entire time.

Brian, That's what they FAA is leaning towards now. There's no evidence in the log book that it was ever remove, it may or might not have been, just never logged. Could have been a number of sources that didn't torque it back down. No one also knows when the nuts first starting coming lose...

My first calls were to the president of the club and the A&P, both first thought carb ice, and it seemed like it could be. The A&P said that he heard that carb ice happens early in a flight (not sure if this is true). I wasn't really on board because, although it was cold, it was very dry that...

Still don't know how I feel about it. Very surreal..

Root Cause The root cause to the issue was eventually found. I met our A&P mechanic at the airplane a few hours after the flight. We remove the top and bottom cowling of the engine. Upon initial visual inspection there didn’t seem to be any issue. As I was looking everything over, I happened...

N18KN engine out incident at KLZU 01/30/2022 Charles Wallace Jr. January 31st 2022 My hope by documenting this incident is to give all who read this account some insight of what happened to me during an engine out incident that happened on 01/30/22 at Gwinnett County Airport, Georgia. Prior...

Looking at the pireps, there is ice being reported at all altitudes..

Question about the info in the Icing Airmet and the GFC. In the area right now between Ohio and Georgia there is an Airmet for icing between SFC and 20k. The GFA says tops are around 5k but there is CI ABV. I'm thinking that there is an area between 5k and 20k that is clear air based...

You got that right, and I survived my first solo in IMC. I'm two for two..

I've used that excuse before when I've been tracked on flight following.

My ground track from flight aware looks like I had an auto pilot, it was hand flown..

Passed checkride last Tuesday. Today was the first time I had an opportunity to fly some IMC. IMC encountered around 12:30 seconds. Was a nice flight to get my (solo) feet wet.

What is the decode for 274/00/D82/70/175. I'm guessing 274 is R-274 and D82 is 82SM.

Where did you find the datasheet on it. The only thing I can find is in the airport directory that shows it's a low VOR..

Yes, ELW, Electric city. Typo.

Question about VOR navigation. Lets say I have only two NAV radio CDI's in the airplane and a radio DME. Say I want to plan a flight on a V311 from the ELT VOR to the NELLO intersection. Flying from ELT to the first intersection, CORCE I can assure I'm on track because the VOR is only 38nm...

Can anyone share 006-d0170-00.bin 15 MB 006-d0170-30.bin 6.48 MB?

It use to have the title delete.. Now that the thread is really going, thought I'd make it something interesting..

I've got it scheduled for January. I'll probably go up the weekend before and shoot the approaches into greenwood and anderson, two of his favorites that I've heard about. It's only 40 minutes from LZU and I do have a few more hours I need to log between now and then anyhow. Want to go for a...
