Ditto, same error. Has worked for years.

In the 90s SSI was self certification until dive control specialist (dive master). Then a form had to be filled out by a physician.

The capricious nature of administrative law not withstanding, it is voluntary by definition. Voluntary and compensated. States refer to them as voluntary in recognition of there ability to understand the meaning of this word. The question is whether you want to count on common sense, or any...

It's been said here many times, but I'll repeat it. Take care of your health - mild chest pains and shortness of breath combined with family history could shorten much more than your flying career. Beyond that, the visit will need to be reported and thus any adverse diagnosis. Some diagnosis...

At the rc field we seem to lose an airplane ever busy afternoon. Fun flys are carnage.

Indeed, FAA's UAV rulemaking is inclusive of RC. Release of the rules has been delayed several times. One possible outcome is join AMA, fly at sanctioned and insured RC fields, and follow AMAs rules or follow these more restrictive FAA rules. I just hope these new technologies and the FAA's...

Very unusual for RC to operate at an airport without management approval. I've never seen it happen except for special events with ground coordination.

AMA recently published this http://www.modelaircraft.org/files/550.pdf

This approach provides daily compounding btw. Again effective rate is trivially different (6.16% pa versus 6.18%) * just noted he disclosed this

Yes, you want the future value of your cash flows at whatever rate is agreed upon if, for example, someone is buying you out of a house, boat, airplane, or business.

If you were promised a series of monthly payment at a particular rate of interest rate, however you received a different set of payments the calculation would be FV of Promised Payments - Sum of received payments = Wind/(Short) fall So you don't need to discount the received payments if...

Suppose there is a stream of 12 monthly payments of $100 at 6% interest. Present Value - you will receive this stream and want to know what it is worth now. Since you receive a total of $1200 ($100 each month) and expect to earn 6% you need to pay less than $1200 to own that stream. In this...

Quite true... Posted it as a monthly solution not noting their was payment mid-month and then just edited a quick hack.

Or add a column of integers as your first column, so it goes 1,2,3,4,5 etc. Then column C becomes = B1 / power(1+(.06/24), A1) Where B1 is the payment and A1 is the month number (i.e 1,2,3,4) Then sum column C

On character.... Back in the early 80's my high school offered several college classes granting credit through a local major university. The teachers attended a summer program where they learned the materials and students read the same texts and took the same exams as college freshman...

I think he zoned out on the displaced threshold and was aiming at the runway threshold. Too bad the Volvo destroyed his opportunity to make this error without incident.

Not sure of your point? I said the approach was poor and contributory while noting we don't know what the pilot was thinking. This approach was only contributory because someone drove in front of the low airplane - but being low was a link in the chain. Pilots make mistakes, students make...

There is no doubt the SUV should not have been there. There is no doubt the aircraft was ~4ft agl 20 feet before the beginning of a 400ft displaced threshold. Only the student knows if he planned to add a bit of power and drag it to the threshold and/or the flap setting was intentional. Easy...
