Still was FAA counsel's responsibility to stop this early. Lazy lawyer, s/he should have been reassigned as well.

They are different indeed. Not been to either. It makes the decision more difficult.

Thanks all. Great info.

Thanks

Giving serious consideration to attending. Would fly Lady Luscombe and camp. Any other POA ers going? Any comments or suggestions based on prior experience. Should I just say no and go to Belize?

Join the FB Luscombe group. The docs section has many approved 337s and other documentation that can help you. You should be able to find the documentation that says flying with both doors off is approved.

This is a good idea but with one caveat. When landing at night you must remember that the runway lights themselves are elevated above the runway. They create a visual plane that is about one foot above the runway surface. This leads to a tendency to flare and actually land on that elevated...

The FAA may be the last remaining place in society where "YOU MUST TELL THE TRUTH. YOU MUST ALWAYS TELL THE TRUTH. THERE ARE NO LITTLE WHITE LIES." The FAA is kind of like Jules in Pulp Fiction when you lie to them Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the...

Oh my gosh, the controller will need to look out the window and maybe use their binoculars. The old guys have no problem doing this, the young guys - I'm not so sure.

One of the best and funniest responses I've seen on here in the past 17 years.

There are many, many, many pilots and controllers who do not understand this distinction. Spend a few minutes listening to "opposing bases" and you'll find that these controllers believe that an aircraft in class "e" airspace is under their positive control airspace.

welcome fourotors poetry while seeking info is a good start

Inquiring minds want to know. Thinking of getting a Giulia. How has the reliability been?

I've always thought they were pretty cool. If the Wx is good one can often see fireworks from several different shows at the same time.

Ah.

My thought exactly. I'd contact Stanford. I'd bet they would like to have them.

Which part of the situation stresses you? Can you post the relevant chart?

That's a big maybe. A pilot buddy is thinking of buying an RV-6A so maybe we'll pop by.

Look at the far end of the runway or at least further down the runway. When you look close to the nose of the aircraft things appear to be happening faster than they are in fact happening. Look further down the runway and you will get a better perspective. Landings are slow flight over the...
