sie-23-2006 By admin

Note: On August 29th, a Tuesday, I will behosting a telephone interview with my friendsKevin and Warren of Natural Point Inc., based inOregon. The call will start at 11:00 AM WestCoast Time (adjust for your time zone) and a linkwill be posted on my site later if you can’t makeit. Details including the number to call and howto submit your questions will be sent out in nextweek’s Update. The call will last from 30minutes to an hour.

The reason I like it so much is that in additionto […]

THE BURGER KING CONNECTION

sie-23-2006 By admin

This week’s question and answer for “Ask Cap’nMeryl” has to do with ETOPS (Extended Twin EngineOperations) http://www.fromthecockpit.com/Engine_Failure.html
Our computer troubles are finally over, at leastfor now. Faulty wiring in the video card of AlThe Web Guy’s main computer, the one used toupdate my site, caused an overheat and thedestruction of the card, which incapacitated hiscomputer.
The repair guy has brought the wrong part threetimes now, and Al finally gave up and went backto Circuit City, where he had bought thecomputer. They sold him a new card at adiscount, and Al will return the part on ordershould it ever actually arrive, and receive arefund when he does. I have my doubts, but inthe meantime www.fromthecockpit.com is updatedonce again. Don’t forget to submit your ownaviation-related questions to me atsupport@fromthecockpit.com and put Question inthe subject line.
Be sure to visit the last uploads to the PhotoGallery here, where I’ve added some new friendsto the Cap’n Meryl […]

This week’s Question and answer about rainbows Rainbows
Please notice the link at the top of the pagewhich goes to this week’s question in “Ask Cap’nMeryl” at www.fromthecockpit.com. We’ll beposting a new question and answer to this pageeach Tuesday morning. If you have an aviationquestion of your own, please submit it to me atsupport@fromthecockpit.com along with your firstand last name and city/state.
The radio interview scheduled for July 24th didtake place, but with Al The Web Guy, also knownas Cap’n Al, instead of me, Cap’n Meryl. Why?Because I am recovering from laryngitis and feltthat an hour of squeaking, croaking, coughing andthroat clearing might not be all that attractiveto the audience and host.
Cap’n Al is no novice on the radio and has donean interview or two with me previously. Thelink to listen to it is not yet available butI’ll let you know when it is. The show’s hostsaid he was excellent and that […]

As I write this on Monday evening (August 8th), Al The Web Guy is still waiting for his computer to be fixed. His video card had some faulty wiring in it and self-destructed. A new part showed up this evening but, for the second time, it’s the wrong part.
In the meantime, we’re able to put out this newsletter but once again we can’t add a new Q &A in the Ask Cap’n Meryl section at www.fromthecockpit.com. Please bear with us as I feel a full recovery for Al The Web Guy’s computer must be near. I hope so. He’s pacing like an expectant father, muttering things incomprehensible and presumably unprintableIf you’ve been reading my newsletter lately, you know I’m in talks with Microsoft about becoming involved with their home flight simulators. I’d like to do a very informal survey by asking that anyone who has a Microsoft flight simulator, has […]

First a note, and that is next time you visitwww.fromthecockpit.com please notice the international flag icons at the top. We receiveso many international emails we thought it wastime to branch out into other languages. Just click on any flag and the website will convert itself into the language of that flag’s country. At least, I hope it does. I’m not up on my Chinese and some of the other languages, so unless and until we get some feedback, we’ll have to go on the assumption the translation is close.
Okay, now where were we at the close of my lastUpdate? I believe I was talking once again about food at the end of Part Two of the Travels With Coco series. Time to move on.We had a couple of appointments to keep in San Diego. The first was with Mark Burgess, CEO of www.SanDiego.com […]
