    450 Recipient Rejected: Rate limit exceeded

    I'm getting this message occasionally when I send emails. Different email addresses, length of message, etc doesn't seem to matter. Any ideas? I did a search on my email provider (everyone.net) and found nothing.

    Member Gone West (Mike Schneider)

    I received the following email this morning: Mike was a member of the PoA community and had 101 airports claimed in the ConUS challenge. I never had the good fortune to meet Mike, but communicated with him occasionally re the challenge. It sounds like he loved life and got everything he...

    Hero gone west

    Faye Andrew, 82, died last Wednesday after a long fight with bladder cancer. Faye was a regular at our little airport, wearing his overalls and flying his remote control airplanes. We usually referred to him as "you grumpy old fart" and his reply was one the profanity filters won't allow, but...

    Olympic TV Coverage

    Just curious. This seems like a pretty average cross section of America so I'll ask you guys: If you could only watch one event on TV, which event would you choose? I must be out of touch (as usual).

    Gaston's Runway Condition

    I flew over Gaston's today but didn't land. The runway itself looks great, except for quite a bit of standing water at the west end and in the tie down area. I can't imagine it drying out completely by Friday so take care when you get to that end of the runway.

    Help with home theater

    When we bought our house there was already a home theater downstairs and the equipment stayed. The components are several years old but worked great until recently. The Lexicon MC1 processor started smoking the other night and died. I'm going to call Lexicon tomorrow to see about repairs, but...

    Cessna 400

    I finally got a chance to fly a Cessna 400 today. I've flown the Cirrus a couple of times and am not a big fan so I wasn't sure what to expect from the 400. I was very impressed. I didn't find it anything like the Cirrus. The geometry of the stick suits me much better, control forces are...

    Need input on Paris airport transfer

    For you European travelers... I'm looking at an itinerary that calls for landing at De Gaulle airport in France at 7:20 am and a flight out of Orly airport at 10:15 am. Is 3 hours enough time to get across Paris and check in for the second flight? The flight into De Gaulle is Northwest and...

    Clear of the runway

    I was taught an aircraft exiting a runway (or crossing a runway) is clear of the runway when all parts of the aircraft have crossed the hold short line. I was studying for the II one night and came across the term in the Pilot/Controller Glossary. "A pilot or controller may consider an...

    Embedded Video on my web site?

    I want to host videos on my web site that can be viewed using the most popular browsers, but I don't want anyone to be able to download the videos or even see where they are located. I can make this work with IE using embedded media player and a redirect, but it doesn't work with FireFox and...

    Anti-Virus software

    My Norton subscription has expired and I'm convinced that the Norton Protection Center is a huge hog. I'm looking for ideas for better virus protection that uses less resources.

    Symbol on DP Chart

    I give up. Can someone tell me what the hashed line at the top and bottom of the Altus AFB Hobart Three departure signifies? I'm sure it's staring me in the face somewhere but I'm too brain dead to find it.

    Question on RNAV approaches

    I'm trying to understand RNAV approaches better and was looking at a couple of charts this morning. Hattiesburg, MS (KHBG) has two RNAV (GPS) approaches for runway 13, RNAV Y and RNAV Z. I understand that the Y/Z suffix is used when more than one RNAV approach is in place for the same runway...
