Absolutely. Down Virginia ave after paying for your own breakfast and braving the "Critical Ops Update #1: ATL Winter Weather". Snow day for my first grader!
All Virginia Ave jokes aside anything close enough to walk is a good idea.

I had a car and stayed at a friend's house and drove in each day. Gate guard will tell you where you can park. And yes, you can haul a car full to the urinalysis place a few miles away. Otherwise you have to call a cab or do it back home at an authorized location.

I don't think the arrest will stop you. It happened in college. We all have skeletons. It really depends on how you describe the details in your app. Make sure you take ownership. Don't come off as "I got a bad deal", but more like "I made a mistake at an early age, learned a valuable lesson, and haven't had any issues with law enforcement since". Also, I think the sooner you get over that 2000 hour mark, the quicker that call might come. Are you a mid-career guy or a retiree?

KTAS= 300. Aircraft is going to teardrop outbound on the 060 radial and wants to roll inbound on the 100 radial. If the aircraft must start the turn at 20 DME, what constant bank angle will roll you out on the 100 radial?
Does anyone have a good rule of thumb for determining this problem?

39,900 = 90,000 / 11.26*tan(bank)
I come up with about an 11.5 degree bank.

60:1 as described in earlier post tells us rough diameter of turn is 13.3NM, so turn radius is about 7 (6.7, but rounded up because you're making a 220 degree turn and I have 7 fingers I can count, but have a tough time counting 6.7).
So my ballpark guess using that ROT would be a bit less than 15 degrees.
Looks like the calculation above says the same.
BTW, if you find yourself spending this much time on any of the questions in the knowledge test, I suggest you're doing it wrong.
