                        Each landing is different, but they all demand managing energy to place the airplane over the runway so it has no choice but to land.<br /><br />

                        VFR-into-IMC accidents continue to rate high in aviation's hit parade and data shows that VFR-only pilots have poor weather analysis skills. Flight training needs to include and integrate

                        More than two decades ago — in 1994 — the Sherpa made its Oshkosh debut. Heralded as a “Super Cub on steroids,” the airplane drew a lot of attention. But not much action. <br /><br />

                        Diving for the runway after a precision approach is a really bad idea, especially when waiting a bit longer will take us right to the runway if we let it.

                        When pilots search for that one special airplane to purchase, they sometimes get stuck in the rut of only looking at Cessnas, Pipers, Beechcraft, Mooney and Cirrus. <br /><br />

                        Whether you're buying an airplane to refurbish or one that's just been refurbed it's essential that you subject it to a pre-buy exam by a mechanic you chose. You should especially look

                        Time was quickly ticking down to my day with the examiner for my private pilot check ride. I had mastered the steep turns, the frightening stalls and high performance landings and takeoffs.

                        It's frustrating to watch stripe after stripe pass underneath your nose, well past where you planned to touch down. Worse yet, your airspeed just isn't bleeding off. We've all been
