    Private messages?

    Diana - Just a guess, but a well educated one, any site admin can probably read all email on this system. Hmm, first its stealing stars from threads, now wondering this? Are you planning a hostile takeover of some sort? LOL S.

    Just havin' a little fun - The Pinnacle Crash...

    Here is an interesting bit of information: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2005/03/05/national/main678341.shtml (AP) Moments before a double engine failure and a crash that killed them, one of the pilots aboard a regional airliner told an air traffic controller they had "decided to have a...

    Electronic flight planning

    I use FlightSoft - I debated about it several times at Oshkosh, and finally got a copy. I've used it several times on long trips, and just love it. It can even download sectionals for the particular trip. Its great. Take a look at www.rmstek.com S.

    Check-ride is scheduled

    The biggest thing is RELAX, and remember only focus on the task you are currently performing. If you think you did poorly on previous maneuvers, DON'T WORRY. Focus on the here and now! Good luck! S.

    Pegged for one star?

    Dang - Here is the catch: - You may only give or take away reputation 10 times a day. - Once you affect a users reputation, you must affect 20 other users reputations before you can affect the first user's again S.

    What planes have you owned?

    I've only owned one plane, a C172N for about 3 years. We bought her after a rental plane let us down in midair. That was a HUGE help in getting the purchase past my wife! LOL After that rental, we started renting our current aircraft, and I had some 80+ hours in her when the owner happened...

    Pegged for one star?

    Ok, board gods - I just tried to add the star that Diana (in a fit of star-thievery) took, and it says I've already voted (I had). What if a thread is really bad, you vote so, but it takes a turn for the spectacular, and you want to bump it back up?

    Need St. Louis airport recommendation. KCPS, St. Louis Downtown OK?

    STL downtown is a nice place, but the neighborhood is scary! Don't look for ANY shuttles to pick you up there. Taxis are fine, but take a while to get there. The folks at the FBO are WONDERFUL, and very helpful. The airport itself is not that busy, and tower was much nicer than the approach...

    Computer Backups [NA]

    You would just endup with a backup of the shortcut. In setting up the new PC, I would just place everything you want in the My Documents folder, and back that up. Otherwise, just backup: C: / Documents and Settings / (Your name) / (Stuff You Want) There you can find favorites, desktop...

    Securing access to PC

    Chances are that the data does not reside on the local PC, but however on some network server somewhere. Securing that is a whole different topic! For local PC access, check out: http://www.ensuretech.com/ Its a badge that locks the pc once you are out of range (user definable). Works very...
