Very sad news indeed. Reno is my favorite aviation event. For me, 1 day is not enough. Especially now that they have added STOL. I go all day Saturday and Sunday, and catch half of Friday if I can. I definitely recommend getting a pit pass for 1 of the days. I can spend half a day in the pits...

Most of the HAA helicopters fully equipped for IFR are operated as Single Pilot IFR (SPIFR) bases. The single engine VFR only helicopters can fly an ILS or GPS approach, but would only do so for practice or in a VFR to IMC emergency. The SPIFR helicopters have an autopilot in lieu of a second...

Huh? What makes you so convinced that he wasn't just buzzing his buddy's house, then made up this story when he got called out? This is just as likely as his story that he couldn't land his kitfox on a well defined 600' dirt strip because he couldn't determine a touchdown point or whatever.

To those who say that this sets a bad precedent if he is found guilty, how about the opposite? If the FAA/NTSB finds what he did to be legal, then 91.119 is effectively useless. Anyone could fly as low as they want any time and say they are just doing an "inspection pass" to see if it would ever...

I don't really understand any of this. Can you explain what ADS-B has to do with anything? Are you saying onboard radar is used to avoid obstacles in IMC? What do you mean weather in the Gulf doesn't allow for VFR? The vast majority of helicopters in the Gulf are VFR singles.

I don't quite remember how SAS works on the 407, but it doesn't work how you are alluding to on advanced IFR helicopters like the 135/145 or the accident helicopter 139. You don't disengage or override SAS with the FTR. You disengage attitude hold (and force trim) with the FTR, but the SAS is...

That's not how it works. The eviction moratorium ended at the end of Sep 2021. If they didn't pay rent on Oct 5th 2021, then you give them a 3 day notice to pay or quit and start the eviction process. You don't have to pay relocation assistance for just cause evictions. Better yet, screen your...

Yet good Landlords in California are some of the wealthiest people around. There is no better way to amass wealth than by using huge amounts of leverage and tax incentives. Sure everyone knows some small time uninformed landlord who doesn't know what they are doing that has had trouble with...

Just when I thought we were making progress! Here is what AB 1482, and therefore also 1946.2 says about relocation: (d) (1) For a tenancy for which just cause is required to terminate the tenancy under subdivision (a), if an owner of residential real property issues a termination notice based...

Glad we got that cleared up. So here's the thing, AB 1482 has never been tested in court. Any of these gray areas are a gamble. From my interpretation, you seem to be good since: 1: You intend to owner occupy the unit. "(A) (i) Intent to occupy the residential real property by the owner or...

I don't think they are joking, but I know they are wrong. The law says one month's rent.

Ok, again I'll ask. Give me the source of where you copied this text from. This is NOT 1946.2. Here is the most current version of 1946.2 straight from the horses mouth: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?sectionNum=1946.2.&nodeTreePath=8.4.69.3&lawCode=CIV...

Where are you quoting this from? I would like to see the source. The actual current 1946.2 does not say any of that. It appears what you are quoting is AB 1481, which was intended to modify 1946.2, however the bill died, it is inactive. You need to educate yourself on AB 1482, which is the...

California AB 1482 includes a rent cap. "Subject to subdivision (b), an owner of residential real property shall not, over the course of any 12-month period, increase the gross rental rate for a dwelling or a unit more than 5 percent plus the percentage change in the cost of living, or 10...

I also want to make sure that AB 1482 even applies to you. Is this a single family home? If so, as long as it is owned in your name and not an LLC or corporation, then AB 1482 doesn't even apply to you. This is of course assuming you gave them the required notice per (B) below. (e) This section...
