I have a question that is driving me nuts. Is there a difference between NDB A, NDB B etc approaches? I can't find a reference in any of my IFR ground school books, the AIM or even google as to what the letter means in the approach names. Any tips as to where to look would be great. Thanks.

I have done a fair bit of my training in a G1000 equiped 172 and have found that it is great to have, however I always try to fly as if i did not have it, take times and calculate speeds, ETE and such the conventional way then verify against the G1000. Also I always have my sectional and am can tell...

I'm betting its just pure economics. The airport is not profitable, and some developer want to turn the land into housing or a business park or something. I am just guessing on that, but i would put money on that being the situation.

At least they know it works

Best one I have been to was in Tucson Arizona, The Pima Air and Space Museums. They had EVERYTHING there http://www.pimaair.org/aircraft.php SR-71, B-52, F-everything, SuperGuppy, B-17, oh man everything. And with the AFB and National Guard bases in Tucson, there were always military jets screaming ...

I don't know, sounds like the kid needed some attitude adjustment, and to realize that there are real consequences for his actions, because we all know our courts aren't capable of teaching that lesson. (not saying its the cops responsibility though)

they have "ambulance" in their name, how dangerous could it be

that was hilarious

What's amazing to me is how all the other websites and newspapers and "journalism" sources have completly chickened out on this. No way they would ever let anyone but the radical muslims intimidate them so. Whoosie boys, all of em. perhaps because of the very real threat of a bomb showing up at you...

Man i hope this goes through! Already planning on Lethbridge and Rocky Mountain House, and possibly abbostford, might be a summer full of air shows!

I don't know, sounds like he was pretty handy as a pilot.

I got to get up close with a SR-71 at the Tucson Air museum. It was absolutely amazing.

Here is a video about the program http://business.mtroyal.ca/videos/mtroyal_aviation_MSTR.mov They also have a really nice simulator on the main campus. I walk by it all the time and just wish i could go in and fire it up. I know a couple guys who took this program and enjoyed it alot. You have the ...

i was out and about Saturday morning and I remember thinking to myself "self, sure looks like a nice day to go flying." Guess I was right. Way to improve the situation and maximize your students learning experience.

Is there a reason why the...looks like the RPM gauge, is on such a cant? is it to get '0' right at the bottom?

Red Flag is good, but some of the CGI is a little cheezy. I never saw it on IMAX screen though, so maybe its way cooler there. If you like that, then you should definetely check out Speed and Angels. Very behind the scenes and personal look at pilots trying to become Naval Airmen. saw it at christma...

I watched the one about the Air Transat dead stick landing yesterday. It was really interesting, and it is a well made show IMO.
