I was thinking TRACON because they have the published phone number but I think I found the tower number.

I assume they just call the TRACON associated with that airport and get permission assuming it is a legitimate reason. Do they need to do the online ADSB exception form as well? I don't think that covers the lack of a transponder. Do you need to do both? Is it possible to go in as a flight and...

These are the same genius insurance companies that charge you MORE if you keep a tail dragger on grass than on pavement. Ask me how I know.

Great idea, force people to fly without insurance.

Thanks for the update.

They put everything on hold and last report from the tower when a King Air asked for fuel planning was 30 minutes more of closure. They sent the big and little Fords to Fond Du Lac.

Listening to live ATC and watching ADSB. From what I could gather sounds like a plane down in the trees. Said something about 500' off the runway. Anyone there have any more info? From the sounds of things visibility is crap. There aren't many trees around so maybe that is just a tower...

Not a doctor but personally I wouldn't take the risk even if it was a 95% chance it wouldn't be problem. If you are denied you are done with pretty much everything. The system as it stands sucks.

Guilty! When it starts raining planes give me a call. There are lots of people flying around with all sorts of undisclosed medical conditions mental and otherwise (the system encourages people to hide them). Most compensate in other ways or they fail before getting too far. Even though we...

Your CFI sound like a jerk.

So does I assume this means 150s, 172s and the like go up in price and perhaps Champs, Cubs and others go down a little in price.

Anyone know what an Antonov AN2 Vs1 is? Looking for a 12,000 pound LSA :)

The manual for my 57 172 says: Of course that is MPH :)

You have to know where you are going to file a flight plan so no.

You are welcome but there is the small matter of your initiation fee. Simply send $20 to every member and you will be all set. :)

Used to be you could scroll up slightly and menu would pop down and you could go to new posts. Seems now I have to go all the way to the top of the thread.

Some observations: 1. Some people here hate freedom and love regulation. I would suggest most of these people have never dealt with the FAA medical division. 2. The car analogy is a poor one but nothing stops someone with a drivers licenses from buying a 40 foot motor home and then towing a...

Not a doctor don't play one on TV nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn last night. These are my experiences. Sorry in advance for the novel. AFIB is a pain in the butt as you never know when it is going to start and when it is going to stop. Some people don't even notice they are in AFIB. In my...

Another vote for lenovo.

Not everyone on Basic Med goes that route because they have a medical issue that prevents them from getting a class 3. Many could get a class three but don't want to put up with the cost and time related to proving to the FAA they are worthy. The FAA medical system is a mess.
