Re: 112 Hot Shot "Service ceiling" is a physical limit where rate of climb has decreased to about 100fpm. I don't think there is any legal restriction there. It becomes operational because you're not going to get much higher... In the context of turbo-charged aircraft the term "Maximum...

Re: Flying in the South West Hi Phil, I know Joel and Terry have already offered some help; but I, too, would be pleased to assist, if possible. I'm at KDVT on the north side of PHX. Out of town the weekend you arrive, but should be around after that. Only know of good beer halls and...

Re: Members only access This seems to happen a lot! Not to me recently, but I see this post regularly... Radu and Bob seem to figure it out pretty quickly, but not a good situation for them or us. We're a small group with only volunteer officers; I don't know the answer, but there must be...

Re: The "Ultra" Commander Test Flight Did your ears pop?
