    Microsoft Flight Sim X - As IFR trainer

    I bought this software thinking I could use it to stay sharp. I need at least an HSI and RMI. The Caravan and Mooney panels are truly worthless. You have to squint to read the HSI. Are there any addons that make it usable? Edit - Just tried the Baron....much closer view of the panel...much...

    Cleaning the coffee pot?

    I was rinsing out the pot on our AC and ran a paper tower around the inside and it came out black. What products do you use to clean out the pot? Or does the black stuff make it taste better?

    No more contract pilots?

    Ive heard there is a new faa ruling. A 135 company cant hire a contractor if they didnt go to recurrent on their 135 certificate. So even if the contract pilot is current and qualified they cant contract to a 135 company. Any more info on this?

    Part of a NASA report CAN be used against you.

    Ok, so maybe I am the last pilot on earth that didn't know this. But on the identification strip of the ASRS report it asks you the reason you are submitting a report. You should be really careful what you put here. Because it can and has been used against an airman. "Be careful when filling...

    Dallas / Ft Worth AC rentals?

    I was looking to burn some holes in the sky and not my credit card. Is there anything in the DFW area (preferably up north) under $100 an hour? I talked with Marcair out of Roanoke and they have a 150 for $78 an hour. Rather pricey. Thanks!

    Frac new hires - age composition?

    With the age 65 thing changing it got me to wondering about people hired at the fractionals. How many fell into the 60-65 age bracket? I wonder if the number is really that great...did the age 65 change hurt the amount of eligible candidates for the fractionals? Or will it be balanced out by...
