    VNAV and Pseudo RNAV Approach

    My home airport is very remote and it is very dark and we do have a lot of mountains nearby. The runway has lights but no PAPI so even though I know the terrain the night VMC approach does increase the pucker factor so I would like to build a approach path with VNAV that I can follow and have a...

    I flew to E16 and the SS fuel pit is located remotely on the far NW corner of the north ramp as seen on this picture that was posted earlier. Also on this picture you can see that the transient parking is located directly south of the fuel pit... you can see the two transient parking spaces...

    San Martin (E16) Airport

    We do live in an interesting transition period in technology... I do have a phone and I can certainly use it however some times I am on a very different time zone and if I picked up the phone in my time zone and called it would not be very fruitful. Additionally, this is "social media" and it...

    NOTAMS and Restricted Areas By NOTAM On ForeFlight???

    Daleandee, THANKS for the link. Appreciate the help!!! I suggested to ForeFlight that they would develop a feature that I tell FF what time I am going to takeoff and it then will project the approximate time I would be flying by that MOA and FF would cause a warning of just the hot NOTAMS as...

    Goodyear AZ (KGYR) Airport

    THANKS all for the local intel!!! Yes I am quite friendly with Airnav but it does not provide any information (that I have found) about a self serve fuel verses if the FBO has a truck (more expensive) nor does it offer any information about ramp fees. >If you don't need fuel, just park on the...
