I may be flying into CYMX this week and noticed a frequency called "Arrival". There is also an Approach freq. listed on Foreflight. Whats the deal?

Great IFR day. Started my short trip to Lancaster PA and back with deteriorating weather. Departed KLNS with 500 OVC heading back to Garrett County MD 2G4 where the ceilings continued to drop, eventually down to less than 1/4 mist and 100 OVC. I had to go missed ofcourse. I stayed in the hold...

I am picking up a kitten saturday and would like to go higher around 14000' , would this be a health issue for a small kitten in an upressurized aircraft?

I took this fun trip the other day. Was the first time I had a flight that was pretty much entirely IMC with some developing storm cells to dodge. I show the entire flight in fast forward at times but slow it down for departure, to explain the weather some and for the approach into BWI. Enjoy..

I don't see many IFR videos posted here that often, so thought you guys working towards your IR may enjoy something to watch to keep you motivated. I don't have any audio thanks to me plugging the input into the wrong jack, so I added some music. Enjoy! 1. 200' OVC Departure Departing 2G4 Rwy...

Any concerns if I were to fly my 4 and 7 year olds at this altitude without oxygen? I normally use oxygen above 8k and I know the regs are good, but wasnt sure if there was something that could be bad for children? I cant get them to keep headsets on, so I know they wont keep a cannula in.

I am thinking about flying down for the Barrett Jackson auction the weekend of the 18th. Which FBO is the most GA friendly? Any things to be aware of/helpful when flying in or out of this airport? Thanks..

Who offers courses with online videos and such like king schools? I used sportys for my private and instrument but they don't offer a similar course for the commercial rating. The only other one I could find was by king schools. Just wanted to see if anyone knows of any other good alternatives...

I found myself in a position yesterday that got me thinking I better relearn how to handle this situation. I was flying through solid IMC with light rime icing. I was told to turn to a heading about 70deg right off course to avoid traffic then told to change frequency to another controller...

I just transitioned into an SR22 with FIKI and during my transition training was able to experience icing for the first time. I remember hearing that +2c to -20c was the spread to be cautious when flying non-fiki. Maybe I misread something?anyhow, we were flying along at 8k and started picking...

For me, I live in an area that gets cloudy for weeks on end. It is nice to see the sun every once in a while. I recently got my IR and finally got a chance to really use it this winter. I thought you guys working towards your IR might enjoy this little video I put together from Monday. Departing...

Thanksgiving day. The 27th. If possible, I am hoping to depart at 7:30-8am from 2G4 (Garrett County MD airport - zipcode 21541) inbound to KTEB (Teterboro NJ airport) for a eta of 9-9:30am and departing as soon as possible. Hoping to be back at 2G4 around 1pm. (to pickup my sister in-law for...

I have one of those ones you put on your finger and it gives you the digital readings. I would like to know how to make the most out of that information. How low are you at risk of hypoxia? I'm not looking for answers like if it's below 90% you should be on oxygen. I'm looking for any hard data...

What situations would you (if at all) file IFR direct from airport A to airport B? All my IFR flights so far, I have planned to get on airways/routes as soon as possible, however there has been a couple times where I get in the air and they clear me direct without even asking. Got me thinking...

Do I need to be in actual or simulated when getting credit for holds? I have had about 3 holds so far while on an IFR flight plan but in VMC.

I had to get current for night flight as it had been about 5 months since I flew at night and I have a trip planned with the family this week. I waited until 1/2 hour passed official night time and almost immediately after departure I was 100% in instrument mode. There was absolutely no moon...

Aka. Mr. Ron Levy. I want to thank this man for giving me the knowledge and confidence I needed to pass my instrument check ride today. I had all but 6ish hours of my requirements to test and realized I was not where I wanted to be. After reading his posts on here and seeing he had a wealth...

This event is coming up at my home field. Thought I would pass along the info to those of you who may want a reason to fly. Garrett County Airport: 2G4 http://www.marylandregionalaviation.aero/_media/images/2G4%20Wings%20%20Wheels%202014%20(Garrett%20County).pdf

I'm sure there are many that are as good or better, but I'm currently 1/2 way through my IFR training and on this long cross country IFR from MD to CT the clouds just kept on getting better and better throughout this 7 minutes. Just love how pretty things can be up higher when down below was...

I own a 2006 turbo 182 and recently had the prop repaired from a leak. The shop fixed the leak but after the repair my plane felt sluggish and I noticed the manifold pressure was not producing the 32" it was supposed to. I took it back to the shop. They inspected everything and then sent the...
