Sport plot and carrying your log book

Wanted to share this info re sport pilot and logbooks. I was just on a wings course re: ramp checks tonight, it was good. I asked the question if an electronic log book would work in instead of carrying a the physical log book. The answer was yes, then I asked about the endorsements. Which lead to s...

Using autopilot in airspace while under ATC control

Just curious to see how many people use their auto pilot when flying in B, C, D airspace while under ATC control. I find it helps staying ahead of the plane and helps me with communication with ATC. I can jot down instructions on sticky notes and put them on my canopy. I fly with Nav using way-point...

A bucket list flight to KFFA

Winds were good for a short x-country from PA to visit First Flight Airport at Kill Devil Hills, NC. This has been on my bucket list for years, not retired and can make time to visit places on my bucket list. It was a good trip 1.5 hours for a fuel stop at ACCOMACK County Airport KMFV. Then a short ...

Love sharing flight with Youngsters

These young adults enjoy the opportunity to fly in the EAA’s Young Eagle program. This young man’s grandfather arranged the flight through our EAA chapter 1250. Short video of his ...

Re: LSA Rentals in Hawaii?

Years ago I could not find one, so I booked a instructor and school plane. I logged the time in a Cessna as a student. It was cost effective when compared to a helicopter tour. Plus they asked twice if it was a lesson and not a tour even though my wife was with me. Since it was a logged as a lesson ...

Re: New 360 camera on a selfie stick off the wing

Very nice. It seems like the camera would waggle a lot while the plane is flying. Does the "magic" take care of that in the videos, or am I wrong and the stick is very stable? Very stable with little to no movement. It is made of conduit and does not flex or move. I use the design from a ...
