Hi all,

I need 2 weeks work experience for a nephew at an airfield or Camo.

Our Camo at Duxford can’t take him. They don’t do it.

He’d have gone to Rougham but Rougham has shut.

He’ll Polish Aircraft, sweep the floors, tidy, do anything you...

Seems like the Covid Wuhan Lab thing is kicking off so in an attempt not to derail the longstanding C19 thread with a sniff of politics here's a separate thread. Mods, if this is verboten, apologies.

I now have a student who is not native English and wanted to clarify what (and when) the testing of English capability needs to be done. Specifically,
i) can I send him/her solo without this? It would appear so.
ii) Is the timing for an English...

When I do my skills test, there's a limit to the amount of training I may have done with the examiner. I can't find this in EASA Easy Access Rules - can anyone tell me the maximum, or even better, point me to the relevant easy access page, please?

Had an uninvited fly by from an RV-7 this afternoon, 200ft above the chimney pots of our edge-of-town but most definitely built-up area.

I just don't get it, when you're so easily identified, visually, on radar, or on various apps (or maybe not as...

We're gradually uploading previous Lecomber columns from past issues, they're great content and brilliantly written, so well worth a read even if you caught them before, and a real treat if you are not familiar.

Might there be an accountancy type forum member who could help me understand the adding back in of a company car cost to a companies Corporation tax bill over a 4 year period after it has been written off in 1st year.

Preferably by PM.

Time is ticking, and I keep promising myself a solo trip to Scotland for a week. I’ve decided that the only way to get the weather and my work/family commitments to be less of an issue is to have a pre-planned route in SkyDemon, ready to activate...

Hi everyone,

My name is Josh, a software developer and pilot who has held a private pilots licence for 7 years. Over time, I've encountered the challenges of managing bookings and schedules within aircraft groups, which has inspired me to create...

I see Vans has filed for chapter 11 protection.

Well having scrapped our West Country escape, and looking at the forecast, I am guessing there will be lots of tele-watching in our house over the next two weeks.

Our preference is for serial scandi noir - there was a thread in which The Valhalla...

If the mods think this should be tacked on to one of the other existing EC threads, please feel free to move it.

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?

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

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.

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.
