    Bipolar plane owner

    Thanks! On this particular post maintenance check flight, I don't think the paint shop normally does them. I just asked if one was done and the guy offered if my insurance covered it so he did. I'm glad it got done. I try to involve myself as much as possible (attended Cessna 172 class), but...

    Bipolar plane owner

    On partner, at this point the plane is so nice, I'd worry about sharing it with anyone other than family (and they have turned down free use for instruction).

    New planes too, darn there goes that sales point with my financial officer. I want to buy my way out! I'd love to build, but I am 6'6", and while dropping weight, I am large. Tried RV10/14. Might enjoy Bushliner 1850.

    Bipolar plane owner

    First off I’m really not bipolar. But learning to fly and owning an airplane has a whole bunch of ups and downs at least for me I had some scares early on with plain ownership that prompted me to get a new engine. Those scares might not have been a legitimate calls for concern, but I wanted to...

    These all read like your subjective opinions. It is not about "feelings", it is about performance. What are their objective observations? Are you debriefing with something like Cloud Ahoy to better inform your subjective opinions? https://www.cloudahoy.com/

    New to tent camping, need ideas for possible Sun n fun

    If I go this year it would just be me so useful load and gear not an issue, could even take someone else. I'm not aware of allotted space so not sure how big of a tent to consider.

    I'd like to publicly thank @RyanB for talking to me for a while a few days ago, very open, neat to learn. Thanks.

    I have not been flying much due to painting, plane due back this week. Happened to catch that there is a great aviation get together in Florida next month! Spouse is travelling and I might head south for a few days. I'm looking for ideas to consider for staying on airport. What make or break...

    Wealth Distribution in America

    I'm not reading through this crap everyone has written. These are things that bring discord and revolt type feelings, tax the rich, and politics. I'll break it down locally though. The folks that I see begging on the streets are buying fast food, cigarettes', and big gulps name brand drinks...

    From pilot to A/P?

    Thanks. I visited a CC, the closest chance to study, nearly an hour away. They spoke about how the program might change to more of a hybrid nature.

    From pilot to A/P?

    I'm retired, mid 50's, spent a bunch of money getting stuff done on my plane, often not on my schedule. Finding help has been difficult at times, have had numerous mechanics. I'd hire all of them again, but each has drwabacks. Lack of help, plus a curiosity to learn might propel me to a 2 yr...

    Using Foreflight as a Student Pilot

    I'd want to try and learn what the DPE used or was in favor of. One of mine would have made me leave an EFB off, regardless of purpose. I was told to not use FF. For traffic awareness, I found FF a major safety improvement, and find anyone that argues against use of FF a bit of a dinosaur. Post...
