2016年2月16日 · "Airspeed alive" means that the aircraft has passed this speed and the airspeed indicator has started to move above the minimum speed that it can display. Also it helps to validate that both the indicator is working and that you are making speed at the expected rate.

2020年3月4日 · "Airspeed Alive" is an acknowledgement that the needle has "come alive" and is indicating airspeed. If it does not come alive when it should, the takeoff would be aborted. That could be caused by an improper preflight (forgetting that the pitot tube cover is still installed), water/bugs/some other obstruction in the pitot tube, pitot tube ...

2007年1月3日 · I'm using a large propane torch on the asphalt on my taxiway. The torch hasn't been used in years and the ball check valve going into the main propane tank is needing to be freed up and lubed. I am thinking just LPS2. But I don't want any explosions or whatever. Is there something better...

2008年8月14日 · IO-360, hard to start. Does not fire for a while, then magically comes alive with a smooth running engine. Cold, hot, flooded, you name it, same results. However, fires right up when you remove the P-lead on the 25 hour old left mag (which has the only impulse coupling) in each and every situation.

2016年3月15日 · We have a couple of vehicles that live in the cold weather and don’t get driven every day. Cold weather means North Dakota, about 3 months of temperatures ranging from -20 up to 20. What’s the best thing to do for their batteries, other than removing them and keeping them someplace warm for the...

2021年9月4日 · A friend of mine was a 19 year old Cobra pilot in Vietnam. He once told me he did a lot of stupid things that could have gotten him killed be cause he didn't know any better. He said that it helped him learn his and the aircraft's limitations, which ultimately kept him alive in combat.

2005年2月23日 · Callouts for the approach: Localizer alive, Glideslope alive, 500, 200, and 100 feet for each descent, and DH/MAP. And, of course, the 5 T's. Turn, Time, Twist, Throttle, Talk. My cruise checklist isn't so much a memory device as an "I already have it memorized anyway" type of thing. Trim, Time, Lights, Pump, Power, Mixture, Compass, Cowl flaps.

2025年2月12日 · She has been located, alive, mentally not well, but alive. Thank you for your prayers. I say the following as an example of anyone else ever has to deal with this: As above, I had to advocate for our family. I worked cooperatively with Indy Metro PD and told the detective I had time as I’m retired. He gave me the last know license plate hit ...

2018年12月17日 · Since you're already on final, it should also arm the glideslope pretty much right away, and capture it once it comes alive. If you wait to flip to approach mode until after the glideslope is already alive, it may not work. Keep in mind that all of these King autopilots came out before GPS approaches with vertical guidance (LPV) even existed.

2008年10月4日 · 'If the Wright brothers were alive today Wilbur would have to fire Orville to reduce costs.' ( From the President of DELTA Airlines.) In the Alaska bush I'd rather have a two hour bladder and three hours of gas than vice versa. It's not that all airplane pilots are good-looking. Its Just that good-looking people seem more capable of flying ...
