Got to admit - I'm college sports agnostic. Kind of rare around these parts. I can't quite yet get my head around having a college team of 20 year old NIL rich kids going to a school I never attended have an influence on if I'm despondent or in a great mood depending on who wins the game.

Hey hey - I sent a deposit in and today I just got on the "reserved" list for a new T hangar in Paulding, NW Atlanta area (KPUJ). They'll break ground in a few months for 30 new T hangars, should be finished in a year. They have the area/ground already leveled, electrical transformer whatnot...

Nice! And, Florida seems like a great place to move to. But happy enough in ATL, so staying put. This nugget wisdom is why I hang out here.

I probably needed to ask to include the other monthly costs of a hangar. This is a partial list that I've gleaned from reading many posts here on what people put in their hangars. Got to go with the POA expert advice: -Wide Screen TV and monthly streaming -Lazy Boy chair and couch -Fridge...

My needs must be simpler than others. My I pad pro 1st gen with 9.6 inch screen has run FFlight with no problems. I don’t do much else with it. Admittedly I’m probably not familiar with all the other things you all do with one. I’ll probably break my “buy used” rule and buy new, as a new...

Did you have a window seat?

Yep. But I’ve not seen a survey to collect what the rates are around the country. Thought it might be useful. Learning a lot here.

Reason I’m asking is that here Atl area they are impossible to get at any price. I’m going to say if you can get a simple T hangar here it would be $500 or so.

What are people paying for hangar space?

It looks like my perfectly fine I Pad Pro is on the list of models that can’t be updated. Getting old isn’t easy at times.

Here’s another way to look at this. Most accidents occur at takeoff and landing. Slow and low. And airports are where other slow and low airplanes that you could run into congregate. Landing in a predictable pattern at predictable altitudes where you have good visibility to see others...

Entering a pattern under 1000’ AGL is something I’m never going to do, although I guess is could be legal in G. As well, I don’t have any G airports to land at. It’s all E, D, or C.

That’s what I’m thinking. You can’t get to the airport VFR and land VFR unless your broken or overcast is at least 1500’ AGL. Otherwise you’re not in VMC enough for VFR. 1) I would have put the lower limit of MVFR at 1500 AGL. The reasoning is that is the lowest you can land VFR. But they...

Odd that MVFR can encompass both the ability to land VFR (if ceiling at 2900’) and not land VFR (if ceiling is at 1100’). The lowest ceiling you can have in a piston and land VFR is 1500’; 1000’ for pattern altitude and 500’ above you clear of clouds. Maybe the 3000’ lower limit for an...

I’ve watched that movie a dozen times and never noticed that.

Are the cases usable?

Reporter : What kind of plane is it? Johnny : Oh, it's a big pretty white plane with red stripes, curtains in the windows and wheels and it looks like a big Tylenol.

Nice bit of information - appreciate the question and answers. MON seems like a great idea. My plane doesn't currently have a Nav radio. I'm getting panel work to install a GTN 650 specifically to get it; I do believe in having radio navigation back up. That said, I'll more than likely...

FWIW, I came to the conclusion that the only way to get the plane and panel I want is to get a good plane and install my panel. A good plane with my version of a good panel is a purple unicorn that I'd wait years to find - if ever. And if I did eventually find it it, the time spent waiting...

What's that old joke. When it's my time to go, I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my great uncle Bob. Not kicking and screaming like his passengers...........
