    Ringing Ears Issue

    I usually fly in the 3000 to 7000 feet range. Yesterday, I went up to 9500. Didn't notice anything with my ears yesterday, but today I woke up and it feels like my ears are clogged up. I haven't been able to clear it up. My ears are also ringing like a sonofabitch. Anyone have any similar...

    Fuel Burn Computation Question-Cessna 182

    I have a 1978 Cessna 182 which I took out for a cross country joy ride this weekend. This 182 has the 80 gallon tank, with 75 usable and 5 unusable. Before departing, there was 29g in the left tank, and 30g in the right, for 59g total. When I got back, I put 48 gallons in it, which means there...

    AOPA Magazine App

    Does anyone else have problems with this app on their ipad? I was excited when this came out and switched my subscription to the digital version, but the app sucks donkey balls. The magazine hardly ever downloads properly. Some pages don't download at all. Then, it takes a long time for the...

    Foreflight Course vs Heading Question

    Is there any way to get Foreflight to display magnetic course when planning a route for purposes of determining the proper VFR altitude I need to fly? It seems that when I plan a route, it displays the magnetic heading with the wind correction angle. Don't tell me I'm going to have to break out...

    Slowflight Question

    I will probably be taking my checkride in the next couple of weeks, and have a question on slowflight. Is there any advantage to do the slowflight manuever into the wind if the examiner lets me pick my initial heading? My first thought was yes as it would be easier to get slowed up and the wind...

    First Solo Go Around

    Did my second cross country solo this afternoon to an uncontrolled airport 62nm away in a 172. Winds at the destination were 080 at 8, and I landed on runway 35. Entered the downwind on the 45, turned base and final and keyed the mic 7 times to get the PAPI lights on. Had full flaps in, and...

    Winds Aloft Forecast Question

    I've got questions on the report below. Where it says "Valid 010600Z," does this mean that it is not valid until 0600Z or is it valid until 0600Z? If it's not valid until 0600Z, then why does the "for use" indicate 0500 which would have been an hour before the valid time? If it's valid until...

    Extending Downwind, Traffic Not in Sight

    Went out for a little Solo pattern work this afternoon. This was probably my 5th or so time up in the pattern solo. Airport was kind of busy, and the tower asked me to extend my downwind for traffic on a 4 mile final. I extended my downwind, and looked and looked and looked, and had no joy on...

    Wake Turbulence Question

    Went out and did my second solo today in the pattern. Did a couple of touch n goes with my CFI before he turned me loose. While waiting at the runway hold line for a landing jet, I asked him about wake turbulence in this situation. The way I understand it, I should not lift off the ground...

    Medical Deferral Delay

    I went in for a medical certificate exam on July 25, 2011 and was deferred. I understand the FAA is slow in getting around to paperwork, but is there anything I could do to speed things up? I have read about calling in three times on non-consecutive days, but will that actually help my...
