Re: Midair at DCA
Is this a common procedure in the area? I don't know the area but I assume this is a procedure where traffic is kept over the river? Seems like allowing VFR traffic to cut across the approach at 350 ft, a mile out could only end badly.

Re: Interesting Single Otter Accident
Very strange. An FCU failure usually leaves the engine at low power. I have had to use Emergency power a couple times. Not sure why that would not work in this case?

Re: I had partial engine failure and I need advice regarding paperwork
Couple things.
-Did the AME enter a rectification in the logbook?
-it was almost certainly pilot error.
-you should pursue a new career path.

Make sure you have a flightplan. Sounds like anything unidentified is gonna be shot down for the foreseeable future.

Re: DHC-3T Lost in WA Puget Sound
So. The way this part works. Is it safe to assume the ring was in but came off at some point shortly before the accident? Would it have then spun off with a few turns of the wheel?

Re: Missing plane Wawa
After 3 decades of float flying I don't fly outside gliding distance from a road, in my wheelplane anymore. It makes me feel claustrophobic, even on a sunny day. Takes me a little longer to get around, but if your in a VFR single engine plane are you really in that big hurry? The stretch from Sault ...

Re: DHC-2 Weight & ,Balance
You are gonna need the W&B addendums from the specific Beaver to determine your starting index on the SeeGee. Or are you simply looking for a generic Aircraft Manual W&B section?
These planes have modified so much that the manual does not do much good, in most cases.

Watching entitled pilots and wannabes squirm, really is the best part of Covid.
For those that are not feeling sorry for themselves. Give it a shot.
I worked there for 4 years or so. It was a good time. Mostly. If its not too late.
