    Ramp Check Medical

    I got ramp checked today, and didn't have my medical with me. Any guess as to how much trouble I am now in? Interestingly enough, the guy in the right seat didn't have his medical with him either.

    Pulitzer Story

    This is only a small amount of relevance to flying, but I thought it was really good. It won a pulitzer prize, and no wonder. It's in two places, but I couldn't get the second one to load. http://www.kansascity.com/mld/kansascity/news/local/14365472.htm...

    Two (2) questions. If I want to go get my commercial, and I have no interest in flying single engine commercial, who teaches that. Can I take my commercial ME in my Skymaster, or will I then end up with CLT limitation? I do not have that limitation currently. Currently I am simple ME and...

    Trump - The Apprentice

    Monday night, replayed tonight, episode featured his 727. I was suprised to see that his 727 is registered as VP-BDJ. Isn't he supposed to have it registered in the US, if it is based in the US? Or maybe it's based in Cayman's, just spends most of it's time in NY.

    Fuel Donations

    I notice that many of the charitable flying organizations ask for donations for fuel. My question is, in reality how does this work. If I'm a private pilot, and I go out and do an angel flight, it's just fuel and expense out of my pocket. I guess if I ever got my commercial I could get...

    I got bumped

    Okay, so like a lot of people, I was in OSH. Leaving, I was in the line for the runway. Turned to the short taxiway, following the directions of the guy in the pink shirt. Felt my plane rock, guy hollers on radio that he just bumped me. Apparently wingtips touched. He looked, and left, I...

    Hezbolla Uav

    I read on Aero News (http://www.aero-news.net ) that Hezbolla terrorist flew an UAV over Israel over Israel. The UAV was apparently sponsored by Syria and Iran. Just great. Load a couple of pounds of explosives, and you have a new V-1 Buzz bomb. There has already been a Trans Atlantic Model...

    Frances visiting Florida

    Looks like the people in Florida are going to be visited by Frances. http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ftp/graphics/AT06/refresh/AL0604W5+GIF/310923W5.gif When I was a TMB, and MYAT, I saw that most private aircraft were parked outside, tied down to cables on the ground. I can remember when hurricane...

    Aerobatic Twin

    This evening, I was out practicing manuevers, and pulled a 60 degree bank, a little rudder, and elevator, to climb a lot while turning. There was a little grunt factor, some where between ferris wheel and tilt a whirl. This caused me to think that perhaps a skymaster isn't the best plane to be...

    What is the Name of that movie

    The movie where the nuclear carrier travels back in time to Dec 6, 1941, and tomcats chase Zero's?? I have been racking my brain for a day. I can see the players, but I am wrong on who they are. It isn't charlton heston and charlie sheen, because I looked at their filmography and don't...
