A staple of the general aviation fleet, the Piper PA-28 series is among the easiest types to own. A GNX 375 provides GPS and transponder duties, as well as ADS-B in and out. Such is the case with this clean 1966 Piper Cherokee 180, available for $95,000 on AircraftForSale.

An icon of general aviation, the legendary Beechcraft Bonanza was introduced in 1947 – the very same year this particular example was manufactured. The GPS, radios, and transponder are positioned up high on the panel, making them easy to read and reach.

If you maintain constant situational awareness and utilize all available resources, that’s conducive to safe general aviation operations. With ADS-B and transponder service over much of the airspace, it is a good practice to fly with a second layer of protection, helping you enhance awareness of potential risks.

However, the General Aviation Revitalization Act of 1994 paved the way for its return, and production resumed in 1996. This legislation helped rejuvenate the general aviation market, and the Cessna 172 once again became a staple in flight schools and private ownership. Aerodynamic enhancements are another area of focus.

Keeping jet traffic safe alongside slower general aviation aircraft is harder still. All aircraft inside the veil must have an operating Mode C transponder and ADS-B Out. A Mode-C transponder (automatic altitude reporting capability) inside the Mode C Veil. That’s a considerable detour for small general aviation aircraft.

I was trained and prepared to solo but did not have to take a written quiz, talk on the radio, know what a transponder was, or deal with a lot of aircraft systems knowledge. I soloed during my sixteenth year with about seven hours of flight time, which is something you probably would not see done today.

The Legacy General Aviation Fleet The beauty of so many legacy single-engine GA aircraft is that, when cared for properly, their aluminum airframes are quite resilient and resistant to fatigue. Maybe this is due to the slide rule and drafting table generation that designed them.

Usually, this is small, light aircraft used in general aviation(single-engine airplanes). This is a button on the transponder (or Garmin) near where you input your squawk code.

Haas We All Fly exhibit aimed at highlighting and celebrating General Aviation. I am genuinely pleased by the idea of this exhibit because the general public seems generally oblivious to the existence and role of General Aviation. We All Fly A new gallery for the NASM is the Thomas W. Cockpit of a DC-7.

There are many popular Greek destinations, for operators planning general aviation movements, to consider for Greece. Other than at LGAV, where you’ll clear customs, immigration, quarantine (CIQ) quickly within the general aviation terminal (GAT), expect to clear CIQ in the main terminal along with scheduled commercial passengers.

Special flight rules provide for general aviation operations within the area. Before entering the airspace, you must file and activate a flight plan and contact ATC for a transponder code. It extends from the surface to but not including 18,000′ MSL. VFR pilots must file a D.C. SFRA flight plan.

Most of the emergency procedures training we do in general aviation airplanes center around just two simple words: “What if?” The average age of the current general aviation fleet is somewhere between 35 and 50 years. As I considered this conundrum one evening, the movie Apollo 13 appeared on the screen.

General aviation is driven by myriad forces. In all new F2s, youll be facing a full Garmin G3X Touch EFIS, supported by a two-axis autopilot, G5 backup EFIS, transponder, com radio, audio panel and, in the demo airplane I flew, a Garmin GPS 175 IFR-approved navigator. Then theres the sales and marketing footprint.
