Happy National Aviation Day from KMQI

Yeah, I've been tempted to go that kind of route. But, the plane I sold was a great wisdom generator. I put everything that was the latest greatest on it, did not recover my money in the sale. Also, came to believe that 3/4s of what I put on it ended up being needless. The economics of...

I have a new to me experimental, am trying to order some parts to do some work, maybe I will do it, otherwise it will shorten time in shop having things on hand. Magnetos are 660 hrs each, Slick, I think 6350 and 6351. If I just order new or OH magnetos with those part numbers, do I need to...

The way my mind works, I’d have to get the license before spending 1m. I bought my first plane 10 hrs into my training though.

Your attorney sucks for not joining the modern docusign world.

Go to the coast.

I am purchasing an experimental that needs a little bit of fine tuning. If I find a friendly pilot AP, how do folks structure things to allow a non owner fly one's plane in return for services?

Yes, but $600 for a hangar, while tough to swallow, does not adequately reflect the structure value.

Why? My example is for single family homes. People that complain about airport rents are out of touch.

If this reaches a couple more pages of discussion I should alter my comedy path to trolling topical forums with .001% situational queries.

How did the Cherokee sneak up? Were they not talking on frequency to the same people?

A couple thoughts 1. What does the ACS say? You need to fly to test standard, so maybe some of this is just mumbo jumbo? 2. I flew a 40 degree flap 172 for my PPL. Came in slowish, put in 40 flaps knowing the straight in trajectory to make it work over the obstacles. Should be about the...

Aren't there online retailers that allow you to point, click order, pay, be done? Shipping figured automatically, paid up front? If you forgot why you asked questions, were they really important? Your poor service could just as well read for being about multiple other lines of business, seems...

If 23k is all blinged out for a plane, sure hate to put a label on what I spent on mine… OP sounds like a pita customer. You should give your proposed vendors your list of rules before starting to deal with them. I was a lil b!tc# dealing with an upgrade on my plane too. Horrible experience...

I’m guessing 1000 sq ft for standard t hangar? So $275,000 construction costs? So $2,750 per month is what it should rent for? Around my area over the past few years single family home rents went up a lot, maybe 50%. I’ve not hear of GA hangars going up much.

I used to have rental homes. Good rules of thumb for rental rates were to charge 1-2% of home value per month rent. What can a hangar be built for? What percent of value are they rented for? I built a simple storage building a few years ago. Residential quality. 10k concrete. 10k labor. 3k...

Coming from him, I had to google it for a bit, but can’t know. I would love to get away from paying so much monthly to some providers

Thanks. Is that a typo or is fireflight a service I have not heard of?

Do you use the iPad app in flight?

I've only flown Garmin, have a contract to purchase a plane with an Avidyne 440 navigator. I am spending some time reading user manuals today. There are a couple neat features, not sure of usefulness. They seem offer a wireless keyboard, don't think one is included in the sale. First...
