Which pa28 was it? I've flown 160's at 9 gph and a 180 when you would be coming down in 4hrs. All have tabs and full fuel of 48 gallons. They can all carry quite a bit of weight. Fuel gauges are notoriously inaccurate no matter what A/c. Glad he found a good spot to set it down but it's a...

I agree. Did I see 1700 over at Chicago, taking off Vfr in the evening? That's not great... If those are what I read. And for all the ppl saying fuel exhaustion is a long shot, we had a guy do that out of kc a couple weeks back. And a beech duke out if Sgf about a decade ago who thought he...

It's not right wing or left wing in my opinion. We all have to get immunizations to go a lot of places in the world and it is not unreasonable for us to require it of people entering. It's also not unreasonable to restrict pleasure travel from places currently experiencing an explosion of...

It's eastern time here. Stopped for a beer after work. One bartender, 5 girls, 14 guys. I've noticed the bartender's twice than I am aware of. Every guy at least will once most likely. That's 16 in about 20 minutes. Whoops... 3 for me. Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Regardless of what they say the camera saw, it's probably more like 187 glances if she was out for a day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good point. I've been thinking of doing some ultralight flying so I'll be sure to wear some kind of cargo/parachute type pants with zippered pockets if I do.

Maybe so. I doubt a lot of people leave their keys, wallet, and cell phone with their car while they fly around. At least not someone who feels naked without those items like me.

It gets incredibly hot if you don't keep it moving though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I hear ya. I have heard 121 carriers getting visual all the time though so it's not unusual to me at all. Only concerning statement to me was "over the fog on flight following." Fog is technically a cloud... How thick was it and were you operating Vfr on top, which is an ifr operation. Just...

Did he disable a halon/fm200 fire suppression system? Was he still in the room where the fire occurred when they found him? Maybe he threw gas in the room and slammed the door shut. They spoke of water damage so he may not have been in a sensitive room to begin with. Sent from my iPhone...

Yes. Sad it is. Curiosity bit me so I slapped it. (Meaning my interest in what happened). Best of wishes to all involved. I'm sure a lengthy, painful legal suit will follow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

All the talk about Tony S. And his accident wondering what happened in this one. http://www.kentucky.com/2014/09/23/3443316/man-dies-after-crash-at-kentucky.html The media isn't saying who was driving or the nature of the accident so far as I've seen. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
