    FAA reworked the Aviation Instructor’s Handbook

    Not great info on what was changed and no single PDF link for the entire thing, have to download individual chapters. https://www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/handbooks_manuals/aviation/aviation_instructors_handbook/

    Maybe it’s permanent. Grounding that is.

    I’ve been avoiding this update but friends are asking and I suppose it’s time. My symptoms from my spinal cord/immune system damage haven’t stabilized and have gotten worse. Currently the right hand is pretty much a fancy claw. Fingers don’t behave for fine motor skills. Atrophy has taken a...

    The 50,000 post*

    “Men of few words are the best men.” - Henry V But since I don’t meet that description... The alternate is more accurate... “It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” - Macbeth And to you all... “Hell is empty and all the devils are here.”...

    Grounded indefinitely

    Haven’t posted here in a long time for ... reasons... but realized there’s a few friends here who don’t do Facebook or any of the other places I hang out. This is the shortest version of this I can manage. Been posting some longer stuff on FB once I realized there was little concern about even...

    Dangerous jobs

    The next time a cop tells me their job is really dangerous... (Source: US Bureau of Labor and Statistics 2013) “Yeah? I’m at number three on the list.” The More You Know. Hahaha.

    Climate Change means no more flying for you after 2050

    "Climate changes [sic] is getting so bad, researchers at Columbia University foresee 30 percent of flights being unable to take off by 2050." ROFLMAO. http://jalopnik.com/climate-change-will-ruin-air-travel-1797550079

    LORAN likely to make a comeback

    eLORAN passed the House in the DHS budget due to GPS jamming concerns. We'll see if it survives the Senate. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/201...ke-global-return-as-gps-backup-because-cyber/

    Mashups

    I'm fascinated by good ones. This one isn't great, but it cracked me up. Ozzy + Earth, Wind, and Fire. Y'all have any mashup faves?

    My thumb hurts ...

    Alright I know this is a friggin' stupid post but... My left thumb hurts. Bottom joint/knuckle. Been going on for weeks. Annoying. Joint is double-jointed/always been really loose. Can sit here and pop it in and out easily using the thumb muscles and nothing else. Always have. But if I use...

    GPS Doesn't Fail

    I can't find the thread with the "GPS Doesn't Fail" garbage this morning, but just thought I'd pass this along for posterity... Note the length of time and the area affected. https://www.faasafety.gov/files/notices/2014/Sep/WSMR_14-09_GPS_Flight_Advisory.pdf We get one of these notices...

    If you do this, stop.

    It makes me hate you. Seriously. THIS is one of the things that keeps me coming back to PoA and even the SZ. People here for the most part speak their minds. I don't always AGREE with them but at least they're not pansies who make every damn sentence they say into a question. And those...

    Forwarded to me by a non-social network non-forum aviation buddy. Figured it would spark some interesting discussion amongst the amateur lawyers here on PoA. Do Part 91 pilots have to submit to a "Ramp Check" beyond showing Pilot Certificate, Medical, and Photp ID? This guy says not...
