Dead Reckoning

http://www.syracuse.com/crime/index.ssf/2015/09/ntsb_plane_crash_colgate_students.html#incart_river I'm only about 50 minutes from the airport.

There is a spreadsheet floating out there that I'm trying to find. Really well configured and I've used it when I joined a club and partnered. I think I may have even looked at it for possible renting. If I find it, I'll pass it along.

Why is the insurance company asking for time in a Commander 114 specifically? I'm only asking because it's a plane that I would believe you would have a hard time finding someone easily. I know it isn't that many hours, but it isn't like it's a 182 RG or something with more out there. I would...

Can you give us an example? I haven't thought about this much or maybe at all. I lurk here and I only fly a couple hours a month. A start would help.

Thanks. I did read part 61.51 but nothing mentioned about "mistakes" or changes.

I was thumbing through my logbook recently and noticed that I did not make an entry in the cross country section for several of my entries. I just wasn't thinking about it I guess. I am now contemplating getting my instrument rating so I want to make sure that the 50 hours cross country PIC...

Is an airplane with 200 horse power considered a high performance airplane or does it have to be over 200 HP to be considered a high performance airplane? I'm having a discussion and have showed the other person that the reg states over 200 HP. So in my example I said to him that it would...

Nope. Likely would do OK for the flight but the oral and written I'd probably flop.

This is a great topic. I think of it often because I do not fly enough to experience many different aspects of flying. Things that come to mind are weather, communications, charts, airspace and so on. Over the years I've taken ground school as a refresher, and I've taken the Gliem online...

goairplane.com. I believe it is pretty inexpensive and pretty easy to use.

My original training was in a Tomahawk (I know) and then went on to a C172 later. I then joined a club that had a C182 and a Warrior 161. I really liked the Warrior and thought it was easier to land than the C172 or C182. I would have loved to move on to an Archer. I am currently flying a...

You're killing me. I live in the Syracuse, NY area, look it up as my plane is just north of Syracuse. I have snow banks 10 - 15 feet high. Haven't looked at a hanger or plane since October. I have about 4500' to work with though.

I'm the short storyteller, he's not. I've been fortunate enough to help him do annuals now. Great thing for a pilot to see what's going on under the hood.

This was a great read. My father told me his story on a long drive one time. He was trained as a mechanic and would go to the local FBO and repair or rebuild engines for flying time. I believe he went from start to finish that way. This was of course in the 60's when it must have cost...

I went to the download, United States and VFR was turned off. Not sure it that is it yet, but I turned it on. I just need to work with FF more. Oddly enough, I'm an IT guy with lots of years. Oh well.

I've had Foreflight for some time now, but I do not fly often and haven't used it much. I'm hoping this changes. For you Foreflight experts this question goes to you. I use Foreflight on an iPad with WiFi only. Is this why I lose my sectional when I'm away from an access point? I was out...

Just sent the link to my dad so that it can be ordered. Thanks again for taking this on.

Thanks, can't wait.

That is correct. I want to be able to use the cable for the audio transmission and to charge at the same time. Thanks for your help.
