So the question is: Does the manufacturing process produce more greenhouse gasses than the paste eliminates?

Nope I have very little as well. Not that little but likely less than 100 hours. It is important to remember that all airplanes fly the same: you pull back the houses get small, you pull back more the houses get bigger. :yikes:

Bingo. It is why I don't rent from the homedrome FBO. Already checked out in one type they fly so I thought I'd rent another type for a little more speed. They want minimum 4 hours to check out in another type. No options, no - okay let's see how it goes. Just a min. four hours for a fixed...

When the vis is RVR 1800 those HIRL make a world of difference day or night. You can always ask the tower to turn them down.

Ah, it was not as hard to find s I thought it would be. See: https://www.easa.europa.eu/sites/default/files/dfu/Annex%20to%20Decision%202012-019-R%20-%20AMC-GM%20to%20Annex%20V%20%28Part-SPA%29%20%28corrected%20on%2029.08.2018%29.pdf Page 18. page 18. The requirement is for (b) for an...

I will look into that. It is what I was taught when training to be an EASA instructor but I never actually verified the info. Good question.

In fact, EASA low vis departures require that the pilot count and confirm the number of lights they can see before they can begin the takeoff roll.

Short field approaches require steep approaches not shallow approaches.

I'm guessing @Tarheelpilot used the word adequate as a shorthand. Adequate is not a legal term nor a term of art. Operations below DA/MDA require that specific conditions are met. See 91.175(c)(3).

I'm the same though I recently upgraded to a photo backpack because it has a separate compartment that opens at the top. That's where the camera is supposed to go. it is where I put my headset and my panel lighting kit (headlight). Plenty of room for everything but still more $$ than I was...

iFly for many years. I settled on it after trying all the other Android compatible apps available at the time I have foreflight on my company iPad as the company pays all the fees including Jepp charts. Still prefer iFly

I have always been an android person and prefer iFly GPS. My current employer (yes I took an aviation job - some people don't learn) used Jeppview until it was folded into Foreflight and issued me an iPad. I still prefer the iFly just because it is simpler and more intuitive. For the employer...

Are you referring to FSS briefers. If so I find that it helps to remind them that I am PIC and they are the briefer. "I tell you what, you brief and I'll decide." Seems to work.

Lender restrictions are state specific. In general they are free to impose whatever requirements they want unless some regulation prohibits it, which outside autos and residence contracts are usually pretty minimal. @midlifeflyer and @455Bravo are giving good advice.

Welcome from LOM.

Keep in mind that pilots who have an ATP do not have a separate instrument rating (except maybe for a different class or category) the ATP is in itself authorization to fly IFR. So none of the airline pilots out there have instrument ratings.

Faster than a Luscombe and an awesome airplane. My multi-engine instructor was a former S-3 pilot from, IICR, the first operational squadron.

The normal glidepath (ILS or PAPI) is normally 3.00 degrees (+/- a bit). If one crosses the threshold at 50' that glidepath puts you 1000' down the runway. Transport category landing distance numbers are predicated on a stable approach on the glidepath. Landing further down the runway uses...
