    Idaho Falls

    I'm going to be in Idaho Falls for a few days in September. Is there a school nearby that does any tailwheel, glider, or seaplane training? I'd be interested in taking some dual in the area but doing it in something different.

    ATP single-engine written test

    How much difference is there between the ATP Multi written (ATM) and the ATP single written (ATS)? If you study for ATM would that be sufficient for ATS? (Yes, I'm aware that an ATP single is not super useful)

    Sectional chart seen in TV show “The Middle”

    The show is in syndication but happened to watch a rerun. One of the characters is a supervisor in a quarry and on the wall in his office there is a framed Salt Lake sectional chart. There are no other aviation references in the show, and it’s set in Indiana. I wonder if one of the producers...

    xplane vs MSFS for IFR procedures

    I'm looking for something to support chair flying at home for prep and general familiarity with specific approaches. I'm not concerned about simulation of specific planes or scenery, rather just want something that will help me get a mental picture of a procedure and then walk through it...

    Practice approach at KPIT

    Would they grant a request for a piston to do a practice approach midday on a weekday? What about a landing/taxi back and depart? If you’ve done this recently, did you encounter any issues with the request?

    Tail number appearing elsewhere

    I noticed via Flightaware that a plane reporting my tail number via ADS-B was "seen" at an airport hundreds of miles from my home base. I know my plane was tucked in the hangar at the time. Is there something I should do? Should I contact the FAA about this?

    Instruction in an older tailwheel plane near DC/mid-Atlantic

    I'm interested in getting my tailwheel signoff in a Cub, Champ or similar older plane. Does anyone offer this training int the DC/mid-Atlantic area? I know there are some schools with a Decathalon but I would prefer to fly in something older for the fun. Thank you!

    Ottawa

    Next month I'm planning to visit Ottawa from the US, and staying for 2-4 days. I don't have the CANPASS aircraft pass, so as I understand it I can't land at Rockcliffe without clearing immigration/customs first. Would it make sense to land at Gatineau to clear, and just park there? Our direct...

    James Bay, Canada

    I don't plan to make this trip anytime soon, but looking at a map gets one's mind to wander... Is it feasible to conduct a GA flight into Waskaganish or Moosonee in a light single? These places seem so close yet so far away... a flight over a remote location clearly requires more planning than...

    Confirming ADS-B out is working

    Is there a method to confirm that my plane's ADS-B Out is working, other than a bench test? I have the Freeflight 978 UAT Out system installed, however I am not seeing TIS-B traffic consistently via my Stratus 2S. The traffic is displayed sometimes, intermittently, or not at all. Foreflight...
