I have a query about the GPS altitude shown on my ipad (using Skydemon) using the Sky Echo 2as my location source.

This week we will be joined by Paul Kiddell, self-described “humble Eurostar pilot who enjoys going on flying adventures with wonderful flying mates” and author of many a 'Flying Adventure' article for us. He will mainly be chatting with us about...

I'm trying to advise the holder of a UK PPL(A) with SEP Rating about what does and what does not require Differences Training, and I can't find anything about it in the ANO.

I'm quite clear about what is required for a Part FCL PPL (all covered in...

Some time ago there was an EASA land requirement to keep a Technical & Journey Log Book. I duly purchased one to keep in the aircraft and like everyone else in our group I diligently failed to ever make an entry.

Is this still a requirement...

Hopefully this will be a short thread....

Does anyone know if the combination of an FAA 'piggyback' 61.75 + CAA PMD is accepted in the States?
I read somewhere that as long as the foreign licence that the 61.75 is based on is current and legal then...

Hi, guys. I have a brand-new and unused pair of bluetooth A20's for sale.

£999 asking price. As a new member, I'm happy to furnish interested buyers with proof of original purchase, personal details/credentials, and so on.

I read the article on the Volocopter which was titled "Volocopter can start training pilots for their electric air taxis".

Is the only difference between the 2 types of VTOL aircraft the fact that the Volocopter is electric thus more...

Is there a catalogue/map of GA airfields or strips across the U.K.?

I see main airports and aerodromes on charts, but there’s loads of smaller strips that aren’t on there.

I found a few pages online, but they are littered with inactive / raf /...

Hi all,

So apologies, so preparing for the EASA exams, there are few * terms * are not covered in any of the Ground School material, at least out of the four that I have. I need to ask them as I am taking the exams in English, in a region...

Tim has been updating SkyDemon’s heat map facility and sent me the attached prototype. He is still developing it, but I thought you’d like to see it. Didn’t think I had visited Compton Abbas quite that much.

Was watching a few paragliders trying to soar from the mountains above Lenk and to my surprise one of them seemed to disappear into a cloud on top of a nearby peak.

Do paragliders fly in IMC? Is not a question that has occurred to me before.

For the last two years we’ve been bringing you SkyDemon tips at the start of our Thursday evening Livestreams.

We’re now taking that one step further, and giving you the chance to ask any specific SkyDemon questions.

So if you want to know how...

We did detect a few words about flying singles. May we respectfully suggest that when we fly singles we fly it to and from the said location. We never have to leave it for maintenance half way through the sortie.

If you, like I do, have friends...

For the purpose of absolute clarity the following post is hypothetical.

Tibenham is 'threatened' by a line of pylons and associated bits of wire that are proposed to be strung across the approach to 08.

Anyone spare a quid?

Last year @RobL kindly sent me Propellerhead.

It had been passed to him and he thought it would be a nice idea to pass it round, each recipient would write their username and date in the front and pass it forward again.

I read it, LOVED IT, and...

Is the concept of net zero now deader than the dodo ?

Hi all,

has anybody had to deal with the language proficiency check renewal? I am level 4, that is the level I was tested before moving to the UK.

Hello Aviators

Quite a specific question but here goes. (A320 TR)

Can a UK CAA TRI with a FCL900 certificate conduct an EASA type rating , if the ATO is based in the EU, but the simulator it self in the UK. (Sim UK/EASA approved)

This is a rare...

Good explanation Sandy. Unfortunately he has lost his way back to this thread so he can't reply. Give him a few more days and we might get something.

Looking at the answers it can't possibly be a because the wind is from the wrong side. B is...
