    Math/regs check... PBOR/Medical

    That is not my understanding. If you have had a valid medical within the last ten years, then you go onto the new program forever. The medical is really just a one time thing from now on.

    Durango P-51 Crash - Med Tests Show Pilot Was Stoned on Marijuana

    Many of those visits are not from normal use. They are from very young children getting their hands on Edibles. They think grandma's stash is just candy.

    Am I allowed to do a touch n' go at an airport then depart?

    Yep, total of 5 hours flight time between the two required XCs.

    Am I allowed to do a touch n' go at an airport then depart?

    If you are not training out of a towered airport, then remember the three full stop landings at a towered airport requirement. Might as well get these in as well.

    So, student pilots.. Who are we and where do we stand?

    I still have this problem as well sometimes. I have done the 6 inch drop the runway a couple of times. and am just glad it has never been a 3 foot drop. Everytime I do this and think about why I always come back to the same issue... I am not allowing my eyes to move to the end of the runway. If...

    As a vet, thank you for your support. I wish I could also take advantage of the offer.

    Unbundling Comcast

    Comcast should have a list of approved modems. That does not mean that others that support the same standards will not work, but if you get one off the approved list then at least you will not have to argue with support every single time you call in. It can be hard to get them to show you the...

    [Movie] Suicide Squad

    I do have to agree with this. What we really need is a spin-off movie of just Harley.

    Regulations: written in blood

    Not if there is a consistent pattern of reform in the decision making process after recovery begins. A solid trend line of good decisions can overcome of history of a few bad decisions. In this person's case the history seems to show that he continued to make poor decisions and error in...

    CFIs, have you ever had to tell a student to quit flight training?

    Wait until you start dealing with cross wind taxi directions. You are using your feet to turn the plane on the taxiway, and using the yoke in a possibly totally opposite direction to make sure the ailerons and elevator are in the correct position. The first time it feels like learning to juggle...

    [Movie] Suicide Squad

    Like the just announced remake of the 80's movie Splash? Please keep giving me marvel movies instead of remaking old movies that were not good to start with by twisting them in some manner. This time the mermaid is going to be male and played by Channing Tatum. This is really the kind of...

    medeco key blanks

    Really nice video of DEFCON. I love the conclusion at the end, basically Medeco claims that every single demonstration of someone opening their locks without a factory key is faked in some manner. Please tell me no one, not even the guy saying it, could actually believe a statement like that...

    New member introduction....

    Not trying to get personal, but this seems like an obvious question if you are willing to answer; and if not then I do not think anyone would hold it against you. What makes someone walk away from that much time, money, effort, and just overall training without putting it to use personally or as...

    Regulations: written in blood

    I will say I was surprised at seeing 4 DUIs in his history. One is a mistake, 2 might be overlooked based on how the guy handles getting help. 3 or more should be flat out disqualifying for almost anything at all without a long history of treatment and sobriety. By long history I would say 6 to...

    1977 Piper Archer II (PA28-181) For Sale

    Saw this plane on one of the other for sale boards as well I think. Had to show it to my wife just to see if she might be willing to look at buying earlier than we expected. No joy, but man I wish I was in the market.

    FS: GNS530W $7000

    Sorry David, lots of aviation equipment scams going around. People want a bit more information then I pulled it from a plane and it is already packed in a box and ready to ship. Which means you can not show a picture of the unit, or of the unit actually powering up and running. Even with those...

    Durango P-51 Crash - Med Tests Show Pilot Was Stoned on Marijuana

    There is also a lot of debate if THC in the blood has a direct correlation to being high. Heavy users can show up on blood tests as above the limit when they have not smoked in a week. An actual sobriety function test seems to be a better indicator, but it is hard to give cops enough training to...

    So, student pilots.. Who are we and where do we stand?

    Sunday was the last big step before the check ride. I have completed all my solo cross country work, done all the maneuvers, done the towered landings, etc. I just had to do the written test to be ready for the checkride, and that is now complete. I know the only thing that matters is passing...

    If you like your EAA you can keep your EAA...

    <sarcasm on> Nice to see a well thought our response by someone that shows respect to their peers. <sarcasm off> And just to answer your accusation, I may have voted for a couple, read 2 or 3 tops, of democrats in the past, but there is no way in the world anyone would consider me a democrat...
