    Please help ID military aircraft

    Don't think its an Antonov 225. I've looked at all the Antonov and Tupolev planes and can't find anything that matches. This photo is from a video of it crashing, so it might have been a prototype or test plane.

    Please help ID military aircraft

    Does anyone know what this plane is? I saw a video of it and cannot find any photos or videos of it. Want to learn about its history.

    On the fence....172 or 182

    I just sold my share in a 172. I have probably 75 hours in 182T and 182RG. I definitely agree I'd choose a 182 over the 172 if travel is at all in the picture. Greater speed, stability, useful load, etc. 182 is a great plane. I was looking for a 182 opportunity and ended up buying a share...

    C172RG fire

    What about carrying something like a welding blanket to be able to throw over your legs? Even 60 seconds of protection could make a huge difference.

    Accelerated IR training

    I did GATTS in KS and was very pleased. They broke it down into very simple, bite-sized chunks and each day built on the previous. I felt very prepared for the checkride and did very well. The examiner was also a great guy.

    The Kings Speech

    I thought the movie was great, although not entirely accurate. Some of the scenes are very painful. Definitely recommend seeing it.

    Starting to work on IR

    Just took my written today. Missed one question. I had ZERO icing questions and recognized all of the questions except for 2 that were the new eval questions. I'm very pleased with how the King course prepared me for the exam. My notes on the laser grade flight computer 1. It doesn't support...

    Can anyone who has taken the test on a Laser Grade system comment on the built-in E6B computer? Does it have all the airspeed, flight leg, etc functions?

    Starting to work on IR

    Regarding questions not being what you studied - my King course came with about 3 double sided pages of updated/new questions. Several of those deal with icing. I'll post what I see on the test after i take it. One question update had the answer changed on the "frost the consistency of...

    Starting to work on IR

    I just finished going through the King IFR series on computer. I thought it was very well done. The video with review questions is a good learning method for me. I'd highly recommend it if that's how you learn as well. I tried a friend's ASA Instrument Flyying book and just don't learn as...
