These two questions will be discussed at Saturday’s session following the monthly program. Please stick around – some of our most experienced aviators are participating.
VMC Question:
Consider the yellow tinted areas on a sectional chart. If you are flying outside a yellow area, is that considered flying over a sparsely populated area with regards to minimum safe flight altitudes (FAR 91.119)?
IMC Question:
You’re flying a light twin-engine airplane with an inoperative right engine, and are planning to land runway 22 with a right crosswind for landing. All other factors being equal, which direction would be preferred for the traffic pattern – left or right? Why?
