Since it has been a LONG WHILE since I have wandered around the skies, anyone have a suggestion for an iPad app that will help me study and refresh for the ground portion of a BFR?

Frank,
Thanks for the comment. I never completed my IFR but, when current, flew high performance hardware for 90% of my FT with night as big part of that. The night flying was always the best...
Growing up in the 50's, it was not unusual to hear the sound barrier being broken by Airforce jockys flying out of March Field. Any time we went to airshows that had a military presence, breaking...
After reflecting on many of the comments in this post, I decided to call around San Diego to see if I could get the PPL downgrade (no offense intended), complete a BFR and be able to rent an LSA as...

Wow, talk about a 'prop strike'..... more damage than is apparent from the outside...

I have thought long and hard about the issue of DL vs 3rd class medical. I have also reflected upon the limitations...
Oops, forgot the quote... As I said, great idea...
Great idea... Now, where did I put that number... ;-)
This is one of those 'why didn't I think of that' situations.. :-)
You answered my unstated query... That is - if I buy a Luscombe 8A, or equivalent, will I be able to get insurance as the PIC?
I may go ahead and get my 3rd class anyway. Although, at 62, I am...
An interesting twist to the Sport License...
