Check out the latest on U-Space at the link here. EASA just published draft AMC and GM for U-Space that is important reading for all airspace users.

NASA ASRS Callback 503 - Instructor Insight, Dec. 2021
I was watching from the ground near the hangars on the north side of Runway XX. My student had completed two successful patterns to full stops. On his third final approach, he appeared to be on a normal descent until approximately 100 to 50 feet AGL. The aircraft then appeared to increase descent toward the runway. He pulled the aircraft to level flight just before the aircraft touched down. The aircraft touched and bounced back into the air...

Have you ever considered canceling IFR while on an instrument approach into an uncontrolled airport?
You may wish to reconsider...watch this new Bruce Webb's video to see why:

CAUTION The end of the year season comes with poor weather and visibility conditions!
How could you use e.g. this AOPA Air Safety Institute case study video?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0lWsqAwYwY
What about flight preparation and conduct of the flight? Were options considered and decisions made accordingly? Were personal minima established?
Which mental biases affected the pilot's decision and action and how can they be mitigated?
How did stress develop and affect decision making, action and communication with ATC?
How can spatial disorientation be prevented?
What can we do to survive in a cloud?
What would you do differently?

Hi All,
Is there anyone here that operates on the MIP for an ELA1 aircraft. We have 3 Cessna 172s in our group that are all on the MIP and each aircraft completes approx 200 hours per year. The Pitot Static functional check requires a B2 Engineer with extensive equipment to "record results". Cessna only require this check every 2 years but in the case of the MIP its every 100 hours. Anyone have any guidance, this is costing around 700euro each time a B2 comes with the calibration equipment? Thank you
The issue is not really the B2 or B1 or L rated engineer, getting the calibrated equipment in Ireland to perform this functional check is impossible. GM1 ML.A.302(c)(3) refers to the table for the deviation of the task. If a functional check is required by the MIP, an alternative test may not be less than the MIP (carry out the test every 12 months or 100 hours).

John,
I did not make the Season debrief but my questions from the season opener were still not answered. I submitted a formal request under the contact us link and nobody replied to me either. We have 3 Cessna 172s in our group that are all on the MIP and each aircraft completes approx 200 hours per year. The "Pitot Static functional check" requires an appropriately rated Engineer with extensive equipment to perform a Functional Test (A test which the recording of results is mandatory) .
Cessna only require this check every 2 years but in the case of the MIP its every 100 hours, therefore we have to do the Functional Check every month in the case of the hours that we perform. Each functional check of the pitot static system costs us 700EURO from an organisation with the equipment. This is too expensive, many indivuals have commented on my thread and everyone has a different opinion. Many saying that the CAMO can decide that the functional check is not required but in fact the regulation says that no check can be reduced to one below the MIP so therfore it must be repetitive every 100 hours or 12 months.
Please can you help elevate this issue.
Kind Regards,
Andrew

Hello John, thanks for this great article and interesting topic. I like the Garmin design of the Emer Autoland Sys.

Dear All,
We would like to know if there are any news regarding the date of entry into force of the amendments proposed by the Opinion 02/2021, regarding AWOs and crew training requirements.
According to the Opinion's rulemaking timeline, the IR is expected to be published in Q4 2021 and the corresponding Decision in Q1 2022. In order to ensure an adequate and timely implementation of the changes generated in the AIR OPS regulation, any additional specific information would be really appreciated.
Thank you in advance and best regards,
Nazariy Harvat
