Live about 40 miles south of Venice. It is now 1930 about time he took off. Moon is to the east and would have been behind him. From my vantage point, 3rd story overlooking Charlotte harbor about 5 miles from the inlet to the gulf the gulf is pretty dark, and though you can see the horizon it...

Do not disagree that experiencing something and discussing it are completely different entities I was commenting on the suggestion that the pilot was not exposed to the concept. I think it is unlikely he was not taught about black holes. As for your case in point, I do agree like I said...

Not sure about his instruction, but black holes and spatial disorientation with night flying is covered and emphasized in the ppl syllabus,, at least it was when I trained. I trained in the local area and flew to Venice a few times during my training. It is a deceiving simple appearing...

Well it seems to do that cause there is no dust back there. As far as the pictures will supply some when I next fly with the bikes, probably next month or so given my schedule. Guess the best I can do at this point is keep things the way they are. Looked on line for cargo nets, and there...

The bikes were tied down and quite secure, but I am a true believer in Murphy's Law and just am wondering if there is something that would be more substantial to protect the vital components from inadvertent damage. The rear cargo panel is quite flimsy and is ill fitting, and does not seem very...

Interesting thought. I will check online to what is available. Not really overstuffing the cargo area. I have two foldable bikes(30 lbs a piece) which fold into fairly small profile,36"X28"X12"). They actually did not move at all, just concerned if they do. I just would think in a plane...

I have a Cessna T206H. The avionics brains, and air conditioner are located in the tail section of the plane and are "protected" by a flismy, ill fitting piece of plastic. This is okay if I do not have anything substantial in the "cargo area" of the plane. Anything more and the plastic...

If the net is right prices dropped 50 cents a gallon in the last week at KPGD. Will see tomorrow need to fill the tanks.

Come on where better to get free medical advice than an aviation forum. In fact I believe Obamacare is including POA as one of their consultation sites.:wink2:

I think some would disagree with the statement that twins are safer than singles. I own a 182 and enjoy it. In terms of why one or the other I think it is more an issue of what you want. Both plans are probably perfectly good planes. I am not familiar with the Tecnam , but will assume what...

Chromosomal abnormalities and death of the mother during childbirth is probably more common in the wild than anyone knows. The lack of the ability to accurately and precisely observe these issues in the wild and the ease of doing it with the human population probably accounts for some of this...

Got my airplane loan via BOA through AOPA, title insurance, and owners insurance, and when I was renting I got my renters insurance with them. As for their advocacy I am not sure they have our best interests in mind, but lobby groups seem to have a different agenda from the rank and file...

It may be legal to fly in my plane with a gun, but evidently it is illegal to bring it into my hangar at my home airport. There is a sign posted that says just that.

A bullet shot by a gun. Past that everything else is conjecture, myth, misdirection, and intended confusion. Conspiracy possibly, organized assassination definitely.

Re: Here's My Mission...Help appreciated!!! I have a 2007 T182T. It has a G1000 and turbo. I trained in a 172. The 182 is a more robust plane, and bigger than the 172. I flew a 172 a few weeks ago for the first time since I got my 182 about 2 and a half years ago, and it reminded me why I...

USAF in the 80's offered free training to us in the HPOIC program, wife said over her dead body, and so did not do it. Fast foward 2011, wife(same one) could not figure out what to give me for my birthday, and gave me a discovery filght. Boy did she ever regret that gift.

I did all of my IFR training in the plane, and did nothing in the simulator. I had about 5 hrs of actual when I passed my IFR, and so about 35 hrs of simulated with the foggles. I remember the first time I went into a cloud more vividly than anything else I have ever done in training including...

How would you feel if the entire pilot community was judged by the actions of Peter Flemming, or Daniel Abernath. That is exactly waht we are doing here. I am probably about as cynical and bullheaded as they come. I admit there are tremendous issues in health care that needs to be taken care...
