    250 Knots IAS below 10,000 feet - is it adhered to?

    Remember that TAS at 10000 and 250CAS is roughly 307 KTAS. There was a time when we would do the, "Southwest 250". Those days are long gone. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Ethiopian Airlines Crash; Another 737 Max

    Very nature of V1 is the fact that it takes the decision process out of the equation at a very dangerous time in flight. The only possible reason I can think of, is if the airplane simply will not fly. Most of the runways I operate off of, if you reject after V1, you're going off the runway and...

    Oshkosh Recommendations

    I would make sure you are there Wednesday night for the night airshow. The concerts are good, but I wouldn't plan my visit around them. There are LOTS of seminars and presentations for just about anything aviation related. It's a very cool experience to be around 100000+ like-minded folks...

    Ethiopian Airlines Crash; Another 737 Max

    It used to be a memory item, but they switched it to a QRC now. I suspect it will be switched back to a memory item shortly. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    As I understand it, the MCAS is active even without the autopilot. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Saratoga, A36, or....?

    I had a 75 f model. 200 horsepower. IO360. The Mooney is a great 3-person or less airplane. We got four in, but we were overweight and it's a tight squeeze. With me only on hoard, the Mooney would climb at 800fpm and cruise at 151KTAS. At gross, it was 500FPM and 135KTAS in cruise. The...

    Saratoga, A36, or....?

    I don’t know about the numbers on a turbo, but I can tell you what my engine shop on the field told me about my 310. I have o-470s. 37000 a piece to do a complete overhaul. That is removing it from the airplane overhaul and reinstall. Poplar Grove Airmotive is the shop. A well respected engine...

    Saratoga, A36, or....?

    Just to give you an idea of interior space. Mine is a 5 place. The UL is 1523. It holds 100 gallons so that leaves roughly 900 for people and bags. Perfect for our family. The boys in back are 6'1", 210, 160. My wife and I are not small either. I love not rubbing shoulders with my...

    Saratoga, A36, or....?

    Yes. I traded my Mooney for a Cessna 310. Our family grew as well and was just too heavy for the Mooney. It was a good move. You can get a lot of airplane for your money with a twin. Of course, you're operating costs do go up somewhat. Like you, I looked at as many heavy hauler singles as I...

    What if Tesla bought Boeing and Foreflight?

    You would have electric airplanes that crash while on autopilot, but synthetic vision would be available. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Where is the MAP?

    @brcase The VDP is the 2.8 DME and 1.8 DME is MAP for the LOC only. There is a star note in the profile view that indicates this. It is much more clear on the Jeep chart. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    How not to fly an instrument approach to mins

    Looks inexperienced. That approach should have been broken off long before. all the gee-whiz equipment is pretty neat, but if you can't follow basic instrument flying, it doesn't do you any good. this is why the FAA drug their feet for so long on synthetic vision because they knew people would...
