The trick is you have to have content on the back side... Now if you proxy the "good" sites, monitor the traffic in the middle, you have enough cash to fly to Gastons!!! Er...Nevermind... {slinking}away{/slinking}

Now thats a scary service. Only windows... Sigh....

Ya, I get a kick out of idiots sending personal email via corporate systems, and are amazed that the IT folks just may see it. (Or that it is backed up and retained.) Bad plan. I'm a bit curious about the saved login info. How exactly would you be able to get that off my pc? Most folks don't...

There is a lot of hysteria about open access points. Grab banking information? First of all, not many people do banking (or shouldn't at least) over unsecured access points (or even "secured" ones that you don't control), and second I've never seen any bank site that was not SSL. (In fact...

Hmm, odd. I'm surprised that ICMP is blocked on ONE router. I just retraced it from multiple servers around the US, and it always dies just before secure server. Its odd that they appear to block it at their border router, and not internal servers. If it was for "security" they would block...

I was always taught that declaring an emergency if you even _think_ you are in trouble was a good plan. There are usually no ramifications (unless used flippantly), and it brings a lot of resources and help/task offloading to the table that a normally busy controller would not consider doing...

Ok, I'm confused. FCM is just under a 3K shelf, and departing to the west/south you are pretty quickly in a 4K shelf. If he told you to stay under 4.5, then he MUST have cleared you for Bravo, right? Also, from your post, it sounds like you hit 4.4, when he told you to stay under 4.5. Whats...

Wow! Ask and ye shall receive! Just after I hit post, the page came back as unable to be displayed! Here was the traceroute: Tracing route to pilotsofamerica.com [216.69.169.202] over a maximum of 30 hops: 1 2 ms 2 ms 1 ms 192.168.0.254 2 42 ms 40 ms 38 ms...

probably too late, but a traceroute would have been interesting to see.

From their FAQ: Why can't I track VFR flight, military flights, and certain non-US registered GA flights? The FAA filters out military, non-US registered, and sensitive traffic. Other than that, you can track any IFR, VFR (with flight following requested), and Canadian registry GA flights...

But... Now that the weight is removed, but not the wiffles, I have more lift! Yeah! Thanks Joe and Richard! I now have an excuse for my performance at Gastons! YES!

I doubt they did it, as I don't think they take the wingtips off. In any case, if they did, I don't think they would be doing riveting inside the wing. It might have been from when the strobes were installed, or perhaps there was work done on the wing by the previous owner. In any case, I'm...

ya know, I did notice that I no longer tipped slightly to the left! LOL Who needs rigging help, all ya gotta do is toss that useless weight in the wing tips! LOL

Today when I was working on my preflight I noticed a group of small "bumps" (acne?) on the lower leading edge of my left wing. They all seemed to be clustered along the rivet lines... Odd. I was _pretty_ sure they were new, as I always enjoy looking at the shiny undersides of my wing after...

Xm into the intercom rocks. LOL

Any idea of who I show my cert to? I suspect I should get this rolling now. It'd be pretty cool to get a UK cert!

I find myself heading over to the UK for a couple of weeks in July, and wondered if anyone has experience renting a plane across the pond? I would be interested in anything from flying with a CFI just to log the UK landing, to some rental time alone. I already know its not cheap - C172 for...

2 words: flight following. I almost always use it. Another set of eyes watching never hurts....

Hmm, lets see. You are in the capitol, there are lots of guys with guns and they are really freaked out and telling YOU to run. What to do? Me, I'd run from the guys with guns, not so much from the "threat..."

Nahh, the government will pick up the tab. :) Kind of a nice footnote on the ol' pilot resume tho... Can you imagine the cockpit conversation on that last few feet? "Ahh, Bob, I don't think we're gonna stop..." "Oh! **** DUCK!" Wonder what the pax would have thought if the cockpit door...
