    Let's do it again: CO Detectors

    I have the sensorcon. I leave it in the plane. I often forget to turn it off. I rarely forget to turn it on. It’s part of my instrument scan. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Turning the Prop backward

    I knew a guy who had a mechanic that took care of a pilot in a backwoods airport that turned his prop the wrong direction and broke the vacuum pump and locked up the whole engine. So, there’s that. YMMV. ;) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Driven NaN miles

    I listed a camper for sale recently on Facebook marketplace. It had no engine, typical pull behind trailer. The ad stated driven NaN miles. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    This looks.... expensive.

    I love how the truck keeps on driving. You can just hear the conversation in the cab: Dude, did you hear something? Nah, you? Nah. Keep going, we’re late for lunch. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Weird New Trick to Prevent Baggage Door Opening in Flight

    Fake news! Fake news! Baggage doors don’t open in flight. They never do. They just don’t. And if they do, it’s because you were looking for it to happen. Don’t look for it and it won’t happen. Simple. I can’t believe that all of POA is focused on baggage doors. Losers. Stop focusing on...

    You’re “oops” moment aviation?

    Was in a rented Cessna flying with the GF who would eventually become my wife. A full day of fun cut slightly short by impending thunderstorms. On approach to the Class C airport I hear: Cessna, keep your speed up, you’re number 1 for the approach, 6 planes behind you and 4 to depart before the...

    If I hadn't done something we would be dead

    I’m at a 1000 hours. I’m a safe pilot (most of the time, I still make mistakes) I remember an instructor totally freaking out about stalls on a BFR. I was slightly off on coordination. At the time it made a big impact one me. Years later, I realized he was overly cautious. At your hours, you...

    Airport security badge

    At our class C airport, we have to have a security badge to access our hangar. These badges must be renewed annually within one’s birth month and require recurrent training. With the current Covid-19 shutdowns, it would seem that an identification badge renewal would not be essential. Our...

    Had to turn down a student seeking flight instruction

    You are not at fault for declining. You are correct. In fact, it’s his responsibility to know the rules and not pit anyone at risk. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
