    Passed the Checkride!

    Passed the check-ride yesterday! Wasn't near as bad as I thought. The examiner I went with is fairly new so was concerned with him being a little less forgiving. It wasn't a problem at all. Took my wife up last night so she could see what I have been doing these last several months.. Now...

    Cross Country Ideas DFW

    So I did TKI -> GLE -> ADM -> TKI. 152nm. Went to smokehouse BBQ in Gainesville. It was good, no issues. Weather was nice; not too hot. I need to get another .5 hours of solo x-country so we need to find a time to all meet up for lunch! 3T0 is a grass strip I guess so that may not work for...

    Cross Country Ideas DFW

    Makes it a lot easier.. I was told 50nm each leg.. Im going to have to dig out my FAR book :yesnod: I like the Possum Kingdom Stephenville route. Primarily because I have been wanting to fly through Dallas but haven't flown through class B yet.

    Cross Country Ideas DFW

    Bryan, Sounds good the only issue I think my instructor is going to want me to stay clear of the DFW airspace. I would love to fly that though. Neal, The only issue I see is GLE -> TKI is only 42nm and each leg has to be atleast 50. I could change GLE for 0f2 but I have flown into there...

    Foreflight enroute fuel management

    I have been talking with my instructor about using foreflight for cross country. He had never seen it before we started flying together. I think I have him sold on it. The one thing that we are trying to figure out is how everyone is handling fuel management when using foreflight. When we...

    Lights out during night flight!!

    None that were lit. We could have flown a bit out possibly but I am not sure. I need to clarify anyways that the airport is actually below the class B. Class B is 4K and above. We were well below that.

    Lights out during night flight!!

    Did check the circuit breakers. Everything checked out good. The plane had just undergone maintenance and had a solenoid replaced so I am sure that had something to do with it.

    Lights out during night flight!!

    Just started my flight training.. Tonight was my fourth lesson. Beautiful night. Weather was nice with wind nine from the SE. So, we departed 45 minutes or so after sunset, got about 8 miles or so out of class B space and began recapping everything we worked on in our previous lesson; Steep...

    CakePHP

    Check out Laravel. I have looked extensively at every PHP framework out there. We have a couple large PHP projects and there is nothing that comes remotely close to Laravel in terms of functionality and beauty.. It is very clean. The guy that created came from a .net background and you can...

    IMC and Autopilot

    I joined the TFC out at McKinney. I live 4 minutes down the street from the airport so its a quick jog.. That was a lot of the reason for doing so. Wanted to not spend a bunch of money re-hashing the same thing. Also, things are fixing to get really busy at work so good to knock it out now.
