I'm still a little fuzzy on Commercial. I have a PPL, If I decide to get my Commercial and purchase an airplane. Can I charge passengers to fly? Or do I need to be hired by a company to do that?

That is my experience as well! I don't own an airplane yet but I did speak to a lot of insurance guys and they said it really comes down to how much time you have in the type of aircraft you are insuring. The more experience you have the cheaper it will be.

Remember he doesn't have his PPL he is just starting out. He still has a flip phone and doesn't want to change it either. o_O

What would it be then?

For some reason Draco has grown on me:

What kind of airplanes does your base fly?

In a LOT of situations a chute wont save your life either. Here at my local airport A Cirrus crashed while landing. The Chute does save lives I agree with that but under very small parameters there are a lot of other situations where it cannot save you. The idea is to get proficient in your...

How things change here on POA. Just a few years ago you couldn't say anything positive about Cirrus aircraft without someone saying how bad the aircraft is, now it seems like the opposite. Comparing the Cirrus to an I-phone is SPOT on. Real airplanes ARE retractable gear There is some...

I'm thinking the Aviation job market is a reflection of what is going on in the economy. When the economy busts, (And it will, don't fool yourself) The Aviation jobs go along with it, people stop traveling and companies want to save so they will go with teleconferencing.

I felt the same way. The first question I remember asking myself was: "Why is a Porsche sitting here"

Did they have a fence around the Mooney displays last year at Osh? I believe people are reaching when they say Mooney sucks! (I did see the little text as well) ;)

Be careful @SkyDog58 just might accuse you of being a thief:

Cobol, Pascal and C++ Programmer been with IBM for 30 years. Why do you say that? Is there a better way to get your hours?

It would've been great if Mooney got one of there representatives to speak about their new Continental TSIO-550-G engines while they hand out free beverages I would've stayed to watch. PW PT6A had an engine on display and someone from the factory was onsite and I spoke to him for a few hours. I...

Apparently, that is where they are going to bury Mooney! :( If that were true Corvettes wouldn't sell, I know the prices are different but not many people would turn down one of the fastest pistons ever made! 242 Cruise with 100 Gallons on board. Useful is under a thousand (I believe it's...

That makes it look awesome in the air!!

Funny, I didn't have bad customer service with Mooney while I was at OSH. I know one of the sales guys. His name is Richard. Great guy known him for many years. He doesn't work at Sun and Fun anymore which is where I met him he works at Osh and moved to the west coast. I personally didn't have...

Now if you look at Cirrus they have a lot more going on. I like both Aircraft but Cirrus marketing is running circles around other GA makers:
