    Can I file a STAR if the first altitudes are too high for the plane?

I understand the basic concept for what they’re for, but it got me wondering...can I file one if I can’t meet the altitude restriction of a certain segment?

    Am I Not Legal? Flight Review

    That's what I originally thought too but this caught my eye: "The CFI should make the endorsement for a satisfactory review in accordance with AC 61-65. The flight and ground time must also be logged in the pilot’s logbook in accordance with § 61.51(a)(1)." Part of AC 61-98B

    Am I Not Legal? Flight Review

    I regret going to this one school, and shame on me for not being more in charge of my logbooks, but here's the story: I was out of the flying game for a long time, and found a local flight school to knock out the flight review and start flying again.

    Would You Make this Flight?

    Thanks for the response. I checked a few other areas along the route, primarily Gainesville which looks to be the highest activity area for developing storms. Looks like probably more than I'd want to deal with: In regards to ceiling height I've been checking this as well but the Sunday...

    Would You Make this Flight?

    Hello all! Just looking for some advice on making a flight from KSPG-KMAC-KSPG. Leaving Friday, returning Sunday. A little background: I'm a PPL (no instrument) with about 250 hours and the flight will be done in a G1000 C172. Right now I'm on the fence about making the flight that I've been...
