I agree 29 is not the best option for an issue on takeoff. I took my youngest son flying the other day, and was saying just that very thing.

The event yesterday involved a Grummen piloted by Roscoe Henry Rosche. He took off on rwy 29 lost power about 200 feet up and turned back when he got to the end of the runway. Roscoe went thru 5 hours surgery working on his back and hip. Still in ICU. This is the latest I have heard...

http://www.wlwt.com/article/pilot-injured-after-butler-county-plane-crash/20696228 Haven't heard yet how the Pilot is other than he was taken via Life Flight.

I think in the Ercoupe it is always flying, but best with the windows down. Open cockpit in a Ercoupe is some much fun.

More info the below paragraph is right out of the FAA Advisory: https://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Advisory_Circular/AC_90-66B.pdf 9.2.1 Unmanned Aircraft. Unmanned aircraft, commonly known as drones, do not require permission or authorization to operate in Class G airspace, at a...

Oddly enough drones and R/C aiplanes/Helicopters are classified differently. Now if they are using the R/C stuff with video cameras, then they may fall under the Drone Category. Either way If they don't have their 107 commercial they are not to by flying within 5 miles of an airport. With a...

Unless I am mistaken, and well it happens often. You can only fly at an airport with permission from the airport. But here is more info: https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/2850/where-is-rc-aircraft-flying-allowed-in-the-us

Impressive.

Also just because they can perform checkrides for Sport Pilots does not mean they will.

Depends a lot on your price range and what type of headset you like. I prefer the in the ear style and bought Clarity Aloft for training and beyond, still love them after well over 100 hours of use. Never tried these, but the price is good for ANR...

@Chesapeaketechie I haven't had much issues with distance, 90% of the airports I have landed at have been long runways and Here in Ohio I haven't seen Density Altitude that was bad, maybe 2000 ft DA.

I have and Ercoupe with a C85 with 0-200 crank and such, I get around 2.5 hours off of the main tanks then it starts using the header tank. I also get very good climb rates, at least in August in Ohio I was getting around 800 fpm climb with just me in the plane. Of course with more engine...

I do recall you teaching turns around the tool box... or something along those lines. As far as the issue goes, from what I was told this morning there were 4 or 5 police cars at the airport when he landed. Someone called him in as a suicidal pilot with plans to crash into the school (per...

Next they will be testing pilots before takeoff.

I have a dual camera model... I purchased this one a little over a year ago. https://www.amazon.com/UPGRADED-N2-Cam-1080P-Dashboard-Recorder/dp/B073WQ7K6C?ref=ast_p_ei I even use it in my Ercoupe while flying.

I am sure you know this, but Altitude reporting will still be based on 29.92 for barometric pressure i.e. not Density Altitude. It would be nice to add that though.

What version of PP are you using? 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016 or Office 365?
