Re: Corked Nose Wheel

My DA40 has been flying with a consistent left wing low attitude with AP on so decided to join the no NLG pant group. Seems to have helped, but has not cleared it up completely. No apparent loss in TAS.

Re: IFR Big Sur Routing to Santa Barbara (Full ATC)

I think if I routinely got complicated clearances like that I'd be a candidate for this -- https://stratusbyappareo.com/products/s ... n-pro-app/

Re: Aviator Lifejackets

According to the video, manual inflation simply means you have to pull the cord that activates the CO2 inflator, i.e., the inflator is not activated by contact with water.

Re: Aviator Lifejackets

The video works fine. It's the company website that has no mention of the jacket. Tried search under aviation and aircraft but found no mention of it.

Re: Aviator Lifejackets

Looks good. However, I went to the website listed with the video but could not find any information on the lifejacket.

Re: As if we didn't have enough to worry about

I learned to fly at Andrews AFB where they have such cables> We learned to taxi (carefully) over them before takeoff as well as to land beyond them. I think any civilian airport that has a ANG or other Reserve fighter unit would be likely to have them as well.
