Hello, even if the idea is very good, you should remove the acronym "METAR", because a METAR in pilot mind it's reality => observation.
I configured everything for my airport (no METAR) and sometimes it's completly wrong (annonced as VFR, but completly foggy).
When it's based on a forecast model, it can be wrong and need to be advisertise like this.

Anas Sedek • 2 weeks agoVery effective technique for personal development, i really encourage reassessing your skill after each flight (debrief yourself), take notes of what could’ve of done better.
Could someone write what book did Kathrin Kaiser mention in the video.

4 weeks ago PublicDear members,
I would like to bring your attention to the sailplane commercial operations within member states of the EU. As Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1976 (SAO) defines in Article 3 - Air operations (2), operators of
sailplanes shall engage in commercial operations only after having declared to the competent authority their capacity and means to discharge the responsibilities associated with the operation of the sailplane.Furthermore, SAO.DEC.100 Declaration defines conditions for how to declare and what information shall be included in the declaration template (Appendix 1.)
Despite those requirements, I just want to precise, taking into account the member state's experience and practice, if there is any additional information, document, or manual requested by the member state to be prepared by the sailplane commercial operator.
Thank you!
Have a good day! -

Josef Pavlicek • 1 month agoHi guys, how about use ATPL theoretical course as CPL theory requirement to teach PPL not only LAPL. There is no difference between PPL and LAPL except instrument time if I'm right.

Fabrice SEGURA commented on Federica Cescutti's topic in General Aviation
Fabrice SEGURA • 1 month agoI've been refused my group 3 endorsment, where a large part of the practical experience was gained with my existing B1.2 licence (lots of tasks are common to the B1.2 and B2) because I was not "supervised", so I don't think FAA experience gained the same way would make it work. The point is, regulation and AMCs as they are written are almost impossible to meet, or, I'd rather think, made to protect the bosses of the avionic shops , so they, and only them, can have a licence, or the person they choose to grant one, for instance if they sell their business when they retire. And also, this helps to keep the wages of the employees low, as they can not go away and work on their own., and also helps them to control competition ...(no other shop can open, without a licenced person...). Keeping margins high, seems to be the priority, rather than safety, reason why lots of small flying clubs use aged avionics, and can not upgrade their planes with modern stuff.

1 month ago PublicDear colleagues, I share with you, in case it is of your interest, this year's edition of the "Vuelta Aerea a España". You can find all the information on the website or by contacting me directly. It is a magnificent opportunity to get to know my country from the air and share the experience with local pilots.
