Hey if anyone is interested... i contact the NPS to offer a public opinon. Apparently they will open again for public commment. See below: Hello, Adam, The public comment period that expired was the the initial one. We will have a second (final) 30-day public comment period, likely beginning...

that one worked! Thanks much.

I clicked the link and it says "whoops not available". Do you by chance have another link? Thanks.

Was just there. Loved the flight though tricky a couple points. December is the right time to go in terms of wether at L09. I linked some pics. Log book looks pretty active (or more then i thought it would be). I'd say runway was good. Couple bumps and tiny tumble weeds but was fine. Such an...

ok i'll definitely sign. And thanks for the airport pirep. ha ha. helps to know.

Hey anyone know if it's safe to fly into stovepipe wells. i know that at furnace there is a notam for heaving dueto salts rising up through the runway. but afd for stovepipe doesn't have dour warnings like furnace creeks. so just asking for any advice. thanks much.

Thanks all. Love the enthusiasm. And yes, SkyDog58... this is never my first stop. It's always a flight plan first, AFD, Sectional, and all the weather services avail. As someone said before... this is more like a pirep. Just good to hear what other pilots say. ATC never had to yell at me (and i...

Thanks all. The flight was great. FF and ATC were not a concern at all. Since i'm VFR it was clouds / ceiling and mod chop. But it all worked out fine. KONT was very polite and helpful. I had 26L to myself coming and going. I appreciate all the great advice. It really set me at ease (yes... low...

Thanks AdamZ! Yep, new. Got PPL in December '15. While I've flown many of these routes in practice, I haven't as PIC. I'd never ask anyone to flight plan for me. Always looking for insight. But I trust my training very much. I do appreciate your perspective and thanks for taking the time to...

HA! Genius. Thanks very much. Excuse me while i go put on my chainmail.

100% to what you are all saying. I'd always refer to the a/fd and always have a taxi diagram ready. And yes, technically its simple: do what ATC says (so long as you feel safe to comply... which should be 100% of the time). I guess for a much newer pilot like myself i love getting "insight" from...

Thanks all! And it's exactly as Shawn was saying... just trying to get the inside scoop. I appreciate the pilot community and how we all help one another. Info like MAYBE i'll be told to stay north of the 10 and POSSIBLY told to cross midfield for left downwind traffic is always helpful. I...

Thanks coma24. wow KA550. That's just mean. i never asked anyone to flight plan for me. Read my post very carefully. I asked for any advice about what to expect. i already gave my altitude. clearly i have a plan in place already. May i make a suggestion, if you don't want to help someone...

myself. i'm cert private pilot.

Hi all. You guys gave me so much great advice before my flight to KSNA that i wanted to ask about this flight. I'm going KSMO to KONT. Using flight following. Curious if there's anything i should know about landing a PA28 Piper Cherokee there. Planning on flying most of the flight at 3500 and...
