Re: Never again on PE - share your mistakes
Yes, that's what happened--I left the TAC chart open and didn't go back to the sectional. I had a lot of time to get it right too. I am ordering the LAX paper sectional and TAC--since those will get a lot of use. I am still old school I guess. I like zooming in by holding it closer. I also like bein...

I’ve been out of this a long time (5 years!) and that is some complex airspace between these fields—I love PE, I’d never attempt this in real life though once upon a time I’d have had no problem...back when they were TCAs and ARSAs. I pl...
