Bill4LE has a few great YT vids dealing with the Los Angeles SFRA. Check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=theHqbEsT34

Another option is the cell hotspots (T-Mobile or Verizon Home internet). Even though I was not in the "service area", T-Mobile let me try one of their home internet routers. Even if you only get LTE that may be enough. (turns out I had horrible coverage and went with the WISP). Verizon wou...

I use a WISP - beamed from a radio tower to my house - this may be a good option for you. It tops out around 30 mbps and I have run PE when only getting around 5 mbps. Less than that and the radio starts sounding very choppy! The advantage is a WISP has much lower latency than most satellite provide...

Is this tool still working? I searched for jobs from KVNY and got nothing. currently on FSE there are more than 50 in the ZLA airspace alone!

That would explain it! I'm on the Discord but didn't notice the announcement - too much to look at there! I guess I need to stay more current with the channel...

Regardless, the point of this was why the controller refused the request and that comes down to essentially requesting a pop-up IFR without filing a flight plan. Workload permitting, the controller could issue a clearance but it...

It simply allows for more flexibility with routes and altitudes. A pilot ON AN IFR CLEARANCE requests VFR-on-top and the controller can clear them t...

Nice flyover of Meteor Crater on the way from KVNY to KABQ...

Just passed my Sky-1 today even without the LOC capture on the LDA-C (damned MSFS...). I turned to HDG mode and manually intercepted the I-BUR then forgot to start descending. But it all worked out in the end! Just one comment, unless I missed something, The "Participation Requirements" sa...
