Bonus QotM ========== What are the requirements for a safety pilot? Scenario ======== You're approaching an airport with a student and think the airplane ahead of you is confused and has misled the tower and may enter a busy traffic pattern against the flow. Will you speak up? 17 September 2024 1H0 Pilot Lounge From members at stlaviationmeetup.org Thu Sep 19 23:21:50 2024 From: members at stlaviationmeetup.org (St. Louis Aviation Meetup Members List) Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2024 18:21:50 -0500 (CDT) Subject: [Members] UAT Data collection Message-ID: Our friend JP Kinos that used to attend before he moved back to Finland just before Covid needs to capture some UAT data (FIS-B & TIS-B) transmissions to help them troubleshoot issues with UAT in Europe. Have the HW to use, but our Saratoga is out for the next few weeks, .. would anyone like to grab some airtime? Need a Garmin panel for the best test data. Thanks!

Scenario ======== The National Airspace System works because hundreds of Centers, Approaches, and Control Towers coordinate traffic through their interlocking system of airspaces. When flying under VFR, youre the lynchpin for this communication. Under IFR, it should be done for you. Sometimes, though, its not clear whos responsible for handling the call. Is this one of them? 1 October 2024 1H0 Pilot Lounge 1830 CDT
