I was once an active airport bum, hanging around the home drome in much of my spare time. Then things got busy, the complexion of the airport changed and, well, I miss those days.

Key Takeaways:

• The author reflects on the value of informal "hangar flying" sessions for social interaction and in-depth aviation discussions.
• He tasked two contributors to research the magazine's conflicting stances on whether an instructor is required for simulator-based instrument currency.
• This research evolved into an extensive, collaborative "electronic hangar flying" process, navigating complex and often contradictory FAA information.
• While a definitive answer will be revealed next month, the most significant benefit was the rewarding and productive collaborative research process itself.
