It was a beautiful day today, so I spent the afternoon at Reid-Hillview airport.
I took along my Icom IC-A23 aviation handheld radio and listened to planes contacting ATC while taking off and landing. Also played around with an E6-B, since I normally use a Jepp electronic calculator.
I always stop in at the AvShop and support it by spending a few bucks.
I noticed that they have a sales flyer posted. They’re offering to eat the sales tax on GPS, radio purchases, etc. in order to compete with online stores.
My club is gradually getting all their 172s back on the line.
There will be a FSDO Wings Safety Seminar at 7 pm on Tuesday in the RHV Terminal Building on Mountain Flying. Those attending can get a Wings endorsement and submit their form if complete. A Wings level counts as a BFR.
Also, a $200.00 2-day Part 121 overview class is being advertised for April for interested airline applicants.
