I saw a bumper sticker on a car today (wish I could have grabbed a photo) that that read: THE HIGHER THE ALTITUDE THE BETTER THE ATTITUDE But it kind of made me stop and think- "The higher the altitude, the better the attitude, and the worse the decision making".

Maybe the 180 at NANCI ?

I didn't get outside to watch today, but came across this youtube video that was pretty nice (and included cockpit audio): Interesting there were 7 flying today- never seen that- anyone know why? Also interesting at around 7:18 looks like some poor guy busted the TFR....

Ohm my gosh!

For the sake of everyone in the cabin is it really worth turning the plane into a 421BM ?

I was IFR (in VMC) once on a westerly heading at 6000 ft. When two Yaks in a side-by-side formation appeared in my windscreen in the exact opposite direction, at the exact same altitude. I continued on my heading and they passed me- one on my left and the other on my right- bot easily within 200...

I noticed the date before reading and got half way through before thinking it HAD to be this ^^ .. It's definitely an sad story otherwise.

I was on the Pro subscription at $150/yr for 14-15 years and just this year they forced me onto the Pro Plus plan for $240/yr if I wanted yo keep georeferenced plates. Is there still a $150 Pro one?

That was one my kid's cookies- I kind of though the same thing! When I asked she said it was a 'gingerbread cookie'. They all tasted like sugar cookies to me...

It even has de icing !!

As schmookeeg mentioned the FAA official format is: - One to five digits (N12345) - One to four digits followed by one letter (N1234Z) - One to three digits followed by two letters (N123AZ) Cannot have zero as first digit Cannot have letters I or O So I think it would be: 99999 + (9999 * 24)...

Agreed- it is only a mater of time before the Fed requires us all (GA) to use unleaded fuel. ;)

The next time I take my daughter to fleet-week and she get's to meet some of the pilots as we did one year she may get to meet this one:fcross:

I remember sitting in the third row seat in my dads 182 when I was young- now THAT was a garbage seat;)

Maybe it wouldn't kill me to commute across the bay at max 10 ft? Any higher, or over solid ground seems like terrible accident waiting to happen.

I am not judging anything yet, and still taking in facts. Since everyone keeps bringing up the FAA off-airport ops guide here is the first sentence of the second paragraph: "Off-airport operations can be extremely rewarding; transporting people and gear to locations that would be difficult or...

For me it was the first price increase in 11 years. 60% increase going from "Pro" ($150) to "Pro Plus" ($240). I had been paying $150/year since v1 on iPad1.

FWIW- if you email them to ask why your plan is going away they will give you an extra month free of the new subscription price... Not much but...

The 480 far outclasses the 430- airway input, hold programming, and form factor alone are reasons to get it instead of a 430. Do you want to cut a hole in your panel and pay for the IFR certified installation of a 20 year old box? If you are trying to be economical and want to get your...

How often do people actually get the words “to final” included by the controller. I can honestly say I’ve only ever gotten clearances like “turn left XXX vectors for the RNAV XXX…”, followed eventually by “X miles from XXFIX, maintain XXXX until established, cleared…”. And more often than not...
