Unfortunately for the reporter, a park ranger issued a
citation requiring an appearance in U.S. District Court. An
ASRS analyst notes that it is important to stay high over
recreational areas to avoid restrictions that may be in excess
of the FAR minimum requirements.
Recreation Areas
Sectional charts and the Airport/Facility Directory depict
many, but not all, the hazards associated with low level
flight. For example, “sparsely populated” areas may
suddenly become populated, as they did for this reporter.
n Flying over uninhabited terrain, I suddenly came upon a
golf course, with houses and golfers on the course. Before I
was able to analyze the situation, I passed low overhead
some golfers, maybe within 500 feet. Increased familiarity
with locale would have prevented this particular event.

Even with good pre-flight planning, pilots may encounter
some unusual problems in-flight. Just accomplishing a
take-off can be challenging, as a First Officer can attest in
this account of multiple bird strikes and the subsequent
aircraft logbook omission.
n Upon rotation, we experienced numerous birdstrikes on
the aircraft. A burning smell was noted through the air
conditioning system. The Captain decided to return to the
airport and have the aircraft inspected. We requested the
airport emergency equipment to be on hand. Upon
inspection, a total of 25 separate bird strikes were noted,
including at least one into each engine’s fan section.
We were inundated with unending clerical duties and
phone calls. In the course of notifying all persons involved
(Company, ATC, fire department, and passengers), a
logbook entry of the bird strike was never made.
The flight crew gets an A+ for handling the airborne
emergency. However, the maintenance personnel, who
had to account for their time and the parts used in the
repair job, would have appreciated a pilot’s write-up to
sign off.

Next, an easily-overlooked pre-flight item will no doubt be
added to this general aviation reporter’s checklist.
n Pre-flight completed. Both fuel tanks full. Five hours
of fuel on board for a planned three-hour flight. Two
hours and forty minutes into the flight, the engine lost
power. Performed all phases of restart procedure without
success. Made an uneventful landing at an unattended
airport.
Subsequent inspection revealed: both fuel tanks empty,
with blue-green 100LL fuel stains originating at both fuel
caps and covering wings, flaps, fuselage and empennage.
The [older style lift-the-lever-and-twist] fuel caps were
properly installed, but the neoprene cap seals had shrunk
and were not sealing, causing the fuel siphoning from the
tanks. These seals had been replaced within the past 2-3
years.
Prior to this event, the airplane spent 30 days tied down,
outside, in a dry climate at 7,600 feet MSL, when
nighttime temperature fell below 0° F. Dry conditions and
cold soak caused the seals to shrink, resulting in fuel loss.
Newer screw-on caps similar to those on most automobiles may
be available to replace the older ones on many aircraft models.
A mechanic can provide specific guidance.
Pilots who plan a flying-camping trip this summer might
take a lesson from our next reporter, and be prepared for
alternate accommodations.
n I estimated that we had just under one hour of fuel
remaining, and as it was getting dark and I was completely
unfamiliar with the mountainous terrain, I decided not to
fly on. I landed at ABC, a public-use airport. The only
telephone available connected us to the lodge, which also
operated the FBO. We told the desk clerk that we could
simply camp overnight and buy fuel in the morning. The
desk clerk said OK. We parked on a corner of the ramp,
