DO YOU think truckies should be able to have more room to sleep in their cabs? Then maybe you should have a look at a petition doing the rounds on Facebook, aimed at truckies who want to change the way trucks are measured so they have more room to sleep. In this episode of The Big Rigs Podcast, we speak to a driver who wants to change laws, allowing truckies to get a better night’s rest. Also this week we hear from pilot Matt Hall, who attended the ATA’s recent technology and maintenance conference in Melbourne. The daredevil pilot shared tales from the Red Bull Air Race World Championship series and had some serious messages for the trucking industry on how to get the best out of yourself and the team around you.

And when the inevitable does happen, the crash occurs, and your faith is well and truly shaken, what do you do next? What checks, rituals, tools do you put in place to make sure that you don’t allow one mistake to impact the way you lead moving forward? So this is me and Matt Hall talking the highest of highs, the lowest of lows, and how to lead at speed – enjoy! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Delta aids downed SR22, Cessna 182s seem nose heavy but aren’t. Here’s why + how-to tips for landings that won’t crunch the nose gear. 182s and Bonanza hit by expensive service bulletin.

Landing Technique in the Cessna 182 The Cessna 182 is an excellent aircraft, but it has one knock against it that’s undeserved. Many pilots say the Cessna 182 is “nose heavy,” making it difficult to land. I respectfully disagree. The Cessna 182 is not difficult to land, IF you know how to land it properly and remain proficient through practice. And while calling it “nose heavy,” seems to match what pilots experience when landing the aircraft, an aeronautical engineer would blanch at that description. The C182 balances at its center of gravity like any other aircraft; the front end is NOT heavier than the back end. It is true that nose wheel damage and bent firewalls are common for 182s that have spent their lives as rental aircraft. So yes, it’s easier to make a bad landing in a 182 than in a 172. And those bad landings often involve the nose wheel hitting the runway before the main wheels touch down. If you want to know three simple steps for better C182 landings, skip to the end of this article. If you want to know why those steps work so well, listen to this episode! General Aviation News Two people on board a plane that crashed into the side of a mountain at Olympic National Park in Washington state on Sunday evening have survived after making a distress call picked up by a nearby Delta Air Lines flight. A new Service Bulletin from Continental Motors is going to cost some Cessna 182 and Beech Bonanza owners may have to shell out big bucks in the next hundred hours because of an engine service bulletin.

Instead they will build a 2 mega watts demonstrator that will be a prototype for an electric powered airliner. Electric-powered aircraft will gather for a fly-in at the Grenchen airport in Switzerland, Sept. 9-10, the first event of its kind in Europe. Walter Extra has further cemented his status as a legendary figure in aviation, setting a new world electric airplane speed record in March to go with the electric time-to-climb mark he set in November. The STC Group has received an STC for the installation kit for the non-TSO’d Trio Pro Pilot digital autopilot into dozens of models of Cessna 172s and 182s, with more to follow soon. Avidyne expects to have a wireless hotspot of some kind certified by 2018.
