All,
Thinking of flying in Sat morning to get a spot in the north 40 that is somewhat close to registration.... south of 9/27. Not horribly far from the tram. Wouldn't mind being half way down to...
That's an absolute shame. The schools and authorities have gone down hill big time. I'd be on the board fighting that nonsense. Can you imagine what the next group of leaders will be like, that don't...
Spot on, Scottf!
Ron,
I doubt you have stats to prove this. If more folks would cry out, support our constitution, and call the leader to be responsible, we wouldn't have the sheeple led country that we've had...
That's a classic example of too much power for a wanna be pretend cop. Sure, we appreciate the volunteers that run the show, but they do need some training and reasonable discretion.
Oh, I agree with you... there's always some bad apples in a group. So, would you rather be unarmed? Or do you think some teen aged girl at the bag check point is going to stop them?
Floats,
First, it's YOUR RIGHT to do so, so exercise it if you wish.
Second, if there's ANY attack, issue or looney that wants to cause you harm your first line of defense is YOU. If you aren't...
Cary,
Absolutely right! We should be proactive and get involved. We are not here for a "free ride" and there is a price to pay. If more people were involved and cared about where this country was...
Why? Don't you stand up for rights that our fore fathers gave their lives for? What is the price of freedom and how much are you willing to throw by the wayside? The security checks at OSH (and a lot...
Do you really think they'll stop terrorists by searching pilots attending OSH????? You need a reality check. Hell, they can't stop terrorist with airport security.
It has nothing to do with alcohol... only revenue.
Nope,
Don't attend those, as I value MY security and privacy too much. We worked TOO hard to get this and we're loosing it.
NO,
I don't attend those events. I value MY security and privacy too much!
All,
I'm TOTALLY against the bag search or any search at the entry point of OSH. Serves NO purpose and don't by people that don't even know what they are looking for. We are being searched to...
Cub,
Interesting, but there is no need that the tower made you do multiple turns. It's a first come, first served policy. Who ever will get to the runway first, should be the one that the tower...
I'm against the continuous turn for a few reasons, the main one being that you eliminate one last look to see conflicting traffic, which only takes 5 seconds. That 5 seconds only adds one tenth to...
Glory and Tom,
Thanks for that link, now much clearer.
Tom, good point about the TBM accident. It's still amazing how a competent pilot can just let the plane stall. And it's happened many times.
Gil,
Need to get your Bonanza back. Nice to see you posting here.
From FL.....
Jim,
True, but even if confident no reason that one can't refuse a trip that doesn't have an operable autopilot. For the most part one can get buy without an AP but there are times that some folks...
Jim,
Interesting... the mixture should not go to idle with a cable failure, perhaps something else was in the equation. When I had a throttle cable failure (B58) I use used the mixture to control...
Jim,
Perhaps I'm missing something, but why would you shut down with a control cable failure? I've had a few of them, but never had to shut down.
Bob,
I hate to hear this. Thanks God everyone lived (except for the Baron). the kid brother made TWO crucial mistakes. He failed to properly do the landing checklist on the previous flight.... and...
Chris,
Good points. One does need to have an abort point/plan in mind before taking the runway and questioning that for a review tells you if he's got that plan done.
Also, we have to accept...
Chris,
Good points but one familiar with their aircraft really doesn't need a take off calculation it parameters are predictable, with a good margin. Example would be a 172 with 2 people, half...
ABSOLUTELY!
I could argue to have and abort point on every takeoff. Whatever you call it and define it, it should be a point at which you should continue or go. Of course, if it's a single engine...
