Re: Headwinds Lonnie when a fellow Commanderer leaves himself or herself so wide open it wouldn't be right not to take the shot so no need to explain I was fair game

Re: Headwinds Wow that's an issue I ignored AGL or MSL! Please any FAR police on the board please clarify if mile high requirements are for AGL or MSL and secondly if 6000 ft counts since its nautical mile high? PS OK Lonnie & Dave I am bested - Lonnie's was a funny put down!

Re: Headwinds Dave I always try to fly right and not violate the rules so: If its IMC I'd have to file for 4000 or 6000 and neither would be legal for the mile high. So instead I file for 11,000 stay legal for the 2 mile high! Question for the experts - if I filed for 6000 - then I should be...

Re: Headwinds Hey you headwind whiners - yes the nature of flying is such that over 50% probability that flights will have headwinds - because even 90* cross track winds are head winds because of heading correction into the wind to stay on the desired track - so quit whinning and try to...

Re: Headwinds Ken would you have minimized H wind by going lower - say 2500 since its all flat land?

Re: New Orleans area? Jim B, Yes Ian C is certainly one of the best, don't be so hard on Lonnie, aren't his deficiencies easily made up by his cute daughters.

Re: Iceland Fly In I would love to see Iceland its a wonderful place and the Faroes islands look starkly beautiful. Flying around Iceland would be fantastic, I suppose the scenery would be like Alaskan coast or Southern Chile. Flying past the Greenland coast to Iceland would also be...

Re: Iceland Fly In Wow the approaches both sound scenic. Sigh the July Aug toimes are very hard for me since Oshkosh and its prep takes a 17 day slice of schedule right out of those months.

I was due to fly out of DuPage DPA to go to Valparaiso IN today - 60 miles.. The weather was 2000ish ceilings and 7+miles visibilities all l\along the way with ceilings improving. Just as I was walking out of the fab DPA airport Jet Center terminal building the edges of the system in the lower...

Re: Best Large Planning Map? Scott surely a tech savy guy you poster as being has heard of Google Earth its the biggest map there is and you cap place push pins or other icons into any airport you fly to!

Re: Over NE Kentucky Roseville near Warren, MI or in NE Kentucky?

Re: Dr. Sorce"s mancave/hangar luncheon Opps didn't post in New Adventure but in Maintenance Items new thread - Why We fly & Responsive Maintenance Besides my beautiful flight write-up it also covers what Scott & Angelo's mechanic Rick & assistant Kelsey did for me on a Sat morn in Willow...

Re: Dr. Sorce"s mancave/hangar luncheon Angelo wish I could make it too but I am on a family visit in Pittsfield IL. Please see my write-up in Today's Adventure of my flight back from your Stateroom/Hangar Oct to home base PHF (Newport News VA) - it also covers my exhaust fix by Scott's and...

Re: Dr. Sorce"s mancave/hangar luncheon Bill aren't you and your family being a bit unfriendly - surely the concert performance could have been moved to the dramatic setting of the Luray Caverns. Think too of the TV show opportunity, local Luray TV could broadcast it, only to be picked up...

Re: Luray Caverns, Sunday, Nov 1st, 2009 I've been there, its worth the trip. A friend of mine & I waled and it was 3ish miles. We declined the shuttle and opted to walk cross country and it was fun but these days she and I'd get cased out by farmers. The caverns themselves are interesting and...

Re: Commander Vs Airliner Lawrence & Susie and the others let's also remember another benefit we gain - the value of time saved monetary or otherwise even for Ken (since he's so savings conscious, I'm sure he pays himself frugally). So even if we take a mere $15/hr for time value ( I calc this...

Re: Heading to Florida good to hear from you - good luck with the speed course and of course when you're finished the economy will be recovering and they'll snap you up for a charter job flying twins!

Re: Heading to Florida Go Dave GO - live to your commitment & drive money is a tool to enable not the reverse. Good Luck

Re: Santa Maria gig June 5, 6 and 7 I'd definitely go if I were a California Commander - I've heard Cathie Fish speak and she is informative, clear and generally excellent.
