Do you mean 1-2-3 (c)? I see nothing about substitutes in section 1-1-19. And section 1-2-3 says nothing about using an IFR GPS for a marker beacon - only a compass locator. If you could point out the specific section it would be much appreciated - I looked for two hours in the Instrument...

No one on the red board could give me a good answer to this question. http://www.airnav.com/depart?http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0711/05402LD.PDF The fan marker for the step down fix is not working. Can the tower tell me that I am at the fan marker and then I can descend to fan marker mins...

Even though the AIM is not regulatory in nature - wouldn't using the recommended procedures be safer for everyone? Isn't that why the AIM exists? And in this case wouldn't using the recommended procedure make more sense than coming up with your own methods for pattern entry? By your argument I...

The point is pretty obvious. I have a much better view and a lot more time to scan for traffic coming on the recommended 45 than I do at traffic coming from upwind, crosswind and on a 45 from the wrong side. Is it really all that hard to understand? If the asshat in the mooney was on the...

Point well taken. And my point boils down to this - you only have so much time to look for traffic. Time is limited. I am more inclined to spend my limited commodity of time looking where the traffic is most likely and should be coming from. Sure I will always continue to look for traffic in...

Maybe if you thought a little bit before you typed you would have read that I said on CROSS WIND I am not looking across the field for traffic because it is IMPOSSIBLE. I physically CANNOT see behind me without superman x-ray vision. Sorry I don't posse non-human x-men abilities like you...

I just found this thread and read through it and one thing no one mentioned is that traffic in the pattern is expecting other traffic to enter a particular way. If I am at an untowered field I am expecting traffic to enter on the 45 on downwind. I am not looking across the field for traffic...

Well that makes no sense whatsoever to have one reg say you can't be PIC and another reg saying you can actually log PIC. But I've seen people try to argue that there can only be one PIC and everytime they lose. Wouldn't it just be easier and make more sense if they just spelled it out in...

I understand the explanations above on the logging of complex or high performance time without the endorsement during training however if you read 61.31 it says you cannot act as PIC. I assume this means you can't be the LEGAL PIC but can still be the sole manipulator PIC?? What reg spells out...

I know this horse has been beaten to death more than once and I believe what you guys are saying but this right here clearly says that you have to have 'privileges' in order to count time as PIC regardless if you are logging it as 'sole manipulator' or 'acting PIC'. I read your FAQ Mark but it...

Ron, Do you not visit the other red board anymore?

Don's Fiasco? I'd be curious to know more. I've been around this board for a while just been to lazy to sign up. In the Pacific NW flying a 172.

Anyone had an experience with MN Aviation? Good? Bad? Thanks for the help.
