FAA Safety Forums at Sun ‘n Fun
When making the trip to Sun ‘n Fun, the last thing a lot of pilots think about is attending safety seminars or even regular forums. After all, there is so much else to do there at the event that sitting still for any length of time seems somehow wrong. However, there are a lot of ...
Airport on Lockdown
Airport boards are often filled with people whom don’t fly. Worse, those same people don’t have any kind of financial stake in the success of the airport or the businesses. They may be volunteers or they may be paid some. Either way, it is the rare airport board member that will question the FAA, the ...
As We Fill Our Skies with UAV’s
One of the unwritten basics of flight is that everyone has a life-and-death stake in midair collisions. That rule has been turned upside-down by the CIA, the military, and now policing organizations by using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The link below takes you to a story at Defensetech about a collision between a UAV and ...
Are Digital Charts Supposed to Subsidize Printed Charts?
Five million dollars is a lot of money. And apparently that and more is what the FAA has made off of sectional, airport/facility directories (A/FD), IR enroute charts, terminal charts, and coded instrument flight procedures. We know of the five million dollars because that is what the FAA is now managing to lose in their ...
The FAA’s New Effort at Adding User Fees. This Time Through Digital Charts
The FAA is something of a victim of their own success and to undo their victim status, they may also undo their success. The success has been the acceptance and use of their digital charts. Many pilots are opting to go with the digital product in their cockpits and are foregoing the purchase of paper ...
Jet Pack Flying
The Dream of Flight can be realized in more than one way. Personally, I prefer not to be tethered to the surface. But if you are someone who has always dreamed of flying a jetpack close to the ground, this could be for you. The jet is powered by a jet ski, which you just ...
David Oord, Experimental Aircraft Association (6/7/11)
The new LODA order is out. Yay. This is the order that allows local FSDO's to write letters of deviation authority for flight instructors to provide flight instruction in experimental aircraft. There are some good things in the order, especially for gyroplanes. It is very close to the document that sport pilot CFI's needed in 2009. Unfortunately it is now 2011. David Oord talks about the order, what is good in it and how instructors can apply for a LODA so that they can get instructing again.
Keith Smith, Gateway Airpark (6/7/11)
You know that a fly-in is going to be a party when instead of planning a pancake breakfast, they hire a band. Keith Smith is going to be hosting such an event that is open to powered paragliders, trikes, fixed wing ultralights and just about anyone who can fly or drive to his field. He talks with us about what is shaping up to be a new look for what already has been a great event in the St. Louis area.
