Here's the 1970s hulk landing an airplane

Hello For the purpose of a CAX check-flight, I need to prepare a VFR nav log - like literally the old-school paper one. My checkride is in a /G c172 (G1000). Rather than using VORs as waypoints, I'd like to use GPS waypoints which are found in low IFR charts. Is this allowed, or must the...

Am thinking of buying (for fun, family missions of ~300-500 miles for weekend getaways) - wondering if this matters? My thoughts: Glass: I prefer this as a pilot, but not thrilled about the maintenance costs Steam: Saves money, but not sure how much longer parts will be available (Cirrus or...

Regarding the night flight requirement (61.129.a.3.iv): One 2-hour cross country flight in a single engine airplane in nighttime conditions that consists of a total straight-line distance of more than 100 nautical miles from the original point of departure My question is - does this require a...

Hello I'm studying for the commercial written. Using Gleim. It's been years since i last took a written, so my old manual E6B is no where to be found. It looks like I need one for the commercial written exam. I'm 90% sure I'm never going to use it again once i get my commercial. Questions for...

Good learning experience today - will keep this post brief: Flying Hudson corridor north at 1500 with ATC In a C172SP with G1000 (rental) Right around the GWB (talking to La Guardia tower), MFD and PFD go dark - all avionics still functioning, but cannot see or control comms (or anything other...

Garmin D2 Air watch (new ~$499) - asking $350. Have worn it ~five times (maybe 2-3 days of use total). Here's a write-up from AVWeb. Here's a write-up from iPad Pilot News. Here's a write-up from Forbes. EDIT: I do not have any of the packaging, owners manual, box, wrapping, etc.. I do have an...

Hello I love using FF's geo-referencing and enjoy using it for situational awareness. In situations when I go missed, however, I don't see any way for FF to track the miss, guide me to the hold, etc.. Does anyone know if FF supports missed approaches? Thank you

It's very good content. I found it to be quite helpful to refresh on some things I had forgotten. However, but the commercial terms have gone astray from Sportys' historically good customer service. Sportys' previous position was that once you buy content, access will never expire and you will...

I'm flying VFR with flight following from ATC. 1) "remain VFR" - once they establish me on their radar. What does that mean? Would I have otherwise started flying IFR? 2) Once I terminate my flight following, I get "radar service terminated, frequency change approved" - but sometimes they say...

Does such a thing exist? For example, if I have a corded headset I use with my computer or phone/tablet, does anyone make an adapter so that I can use it (i.e., as a back-up) in case my GA pilot headset breaks?

Anyone used their portable ADS-B receiver? $350, seems to have traffic + weather (no AHRS). I'm not sure I need AHRS - really care mostly about weather and traffic.

Just saw several cubs formation flying Southbound over the Hudson SFRA. Is there something fun going on? I didn't realize ATC allowed formation flying over the SFRA at all - very cool

Please DM me if interested.

$170 (shipping cost included to continental USA). Comes with a USB charging cable and AC adapter. It's always lived behind a screen protector, which I just removed to clean it - screen and unit are in very good condition.

Referring to single-engine aircraft, not looking for the A&P answer, but instead - what are non-A&P pilots carrying with them? Toolbox? Nothing? Swiss army knife?

Here's the story -- apparently was power out and landed in someone's house

I've been a pro subscriber for 3 years now, and I'm pleased with their product. Though I wish it were available for other platforms, I'm good. Normally when I email a question to their support team, it gets answered in a day or two. I want to buy a Sentry, but they've been sold out for ~2 weeks...

Just stumbled across this video (it's not mine) - the CFI sounds extremely skilled!
