During flight training you are required to do a night time flight into a Class C or Class B airport. I did mine into John Wayne International, sequenced in between two 737's (very exciting). While I don't believe that the pilot was a student pilot, you could argue that he was performing proficiency training and the…

Doing that was always on my bucket list, so I was stoked when it finally happened a couple years ago!

I'm very liberal, anti guns, pro free healthcare and education and very much grateful to anyone going to war and thereby putting their life at risk to prevent extremists from detonating suicide bombs in our streets.

Sports and Politics do not mix, a custom that the Catholic church should introduce with priests and alter boys!!!!

It is a sad day when the Germans refuse to go to war...

I think most Danes would be offended by that label...

So there are a few things we need to distinguish from each other.

I read an article recently that the new data connections will have 50 Mbit bandwidth. If you only transmit voice and flight data (Flight data could probably be handled by a 56 K modem) it should take up less than a few % of the capacity. Adding video would of course significantly change that, but cockpits are not…

Yeah, but for Kristin that might only be afterlife depending on what Patsy does with that .38!

She is not even hot, well maybe for Wisconsin she is...
