Hi folks - haven't been on in a while (SORRY) I have a customer looking to purchase a gift for someone for a Glider Flight in the Reading, PA area. I offer Discovery Flights in Airplanes, but have no contacts for gliders. I tried the folks at Black Diamond Soaring Society who while...

You are correct - I meant to say Vertical It has been edited in my post.

Why this is still continuing I'm not sure. I never said the increase in bank angle (increasing load factor) is the reason for the application of power. True, at low bank angles the increase in stall speed is minimal. The point of the maneuver (at the stage where we make turns in Slow Flight)...

Sorry - My first attempt at a forum. Unfortunately the pop ads are part of a free forum. I don't like them either. As far as the screen being taken up by the navigation on the left side. That is due to the audio player feed for Live ATC. I couldn't figure out how to make it any smaller...

I know many of you are like me and probably already subscribe to more forums than you can handle given the days limited number of hours, and too much of a workload. I am however asking anyone interested to check out a Pilots Forum I created for student pilots, and fliers out at my airport in...

Only girls at the bar - strictly in an attempt to refute testimony given under the influence... :goofy:

Judge Smails - Caddyshack :ihih: (I can still hear his voice)

Dan, We operate a C172 with a STOL kit that allows for the same handling. Had a photographer come out to the airport and asked if I could hold 50 knots. I said "sure, how about 30?" :ihih:

I'm not trying to start a debate over this but... Slow Flight defined as I had posted: "...where any increase in angle of attack, increase in load factor, or reduction in power will result in an immediate stall" This leaves you not just with the stall horn sounding (where you may have...

Tim, I think Henning has this right on. In the past Slow Flight had been taught as slowing the aircraft down and flying at speeds slower than cruise (like you might do while extending a downwind for a period of time) The current definition of slow flight is: Flight at an airspeed where any...

In the end I think you did the right thing. Option C is best in my book as well. While I tend to meet things head on too many times, calmer heads sometimes prevail as yours did. It's all about Karma, and one day he'll get his!

Thanks for the post Bill And interesting read. Sorry I haven't been around much - this Aviation Career of mine has been quite time consuming. Did you by chance make the Commander Group Fly-In in Georgia? I didn't see you there (but I arrived a little late)

New Horizons Aviation and Horizons Pilot Shop have continued to grow and it looks as if we will need yet another CFI, or perhaps someone who is willing to work in our Pilot Shop. The Pilot Shop handles mostly online orders. We are continuing to grow in this market place, and it looks as if the...

I've always considered Intercepting and Tracking to have been handled by the enroute phase of my flight 66HIT is it for me: 6 Approaches with in 6 months Holding Intercepting and Tracking

Some valid points by all. However this post makes a very big assumption that the manufacturers have stopped advertising. When tight times cause us to look at our budgets more carefully we generally FOCUS our advertising needs. Not simply cut them. We look at what will give us the best bang...

So close to home too. Does anyone know what happened?

The ZULU Offer of $800 is good until December 24th The additional 5% for Black Friday will be extended thru this Monday for anyone who is interested.

It is Adam Quite frankly it won't make much money, but the idea is to introduce more people to the Pilot Shop and help others at the same time.

I just posted this same message via Facebook, so I wanted to make sure I posted it here as well. Horizons Pilot Shop We also have a limited time offer for Lightspeed headsets. Thank you all for helping with my initial order. For the Holiday season you can order a Lightspeed ZULU headset for...

Keep me posted if anyone does on Sunday. I would still like to meet some of you for the first time
