I bought a used Pipistrel Alpha Trainer with about 800hrs on it.

I was in a similar boat with having some underlying conditions. based on the recommendations of multiple people here, I had a phone consultation with a local AME and they advised me to not pursue the medical due to good chance of being denied. I thanked him for his time and have gone down the...

Just thought I would throw mine up here since their haven't been any LSA's posted.

it doesn't have a dedicated app on an iPad, but it capability to export all the flight plans to an EFB that you would typically use during flight.

Thanks for the info and your feedback.

How long have you had the PJ2 and how do you like it? Debating between that and the FTA-250L as a backup COM only since I'm only VFR ever. Thanks

I am also thinking about pursuing this rating as well, but I'm quite a long way away from it. I am still a student pilot working towards my Sport Pilot certificate (due to inability to get medical) and was wondering what I could do to continue to push my learning and alway become a little...

starting over with my sport pilot training on Tuesday as long as the weather hold out. this will be my third re-start and hopefully my last.

here is a free course which I watched a couple times, took notes, and continued to study the free material. Also took a free PPL ground school which helped understand weather and airspace.

thanks for the replies and I'll see what I can find this weekend during a visual inspection and I'll discuss taking a voltage reading when the shop does the transponder inspections.

I recently had some repairs done on my plane which required turning the plane upside down (composite repair to belly). All repairs are complete and during first flight after repairs my transponder would not turn on. The shop conducting the repairs stated that they did not disrupt any dash...

In my opinion, you could always double the mask to improve YOUR protection. The CDC states that the purpose of the mask is to prevent you from spreading it to others via breath droplets. The N95 mask would give you and others protection agains the virus. I am not a Dr. but have been working...

I have a plane (LSA) in leaseback to a flight school and they stated that for their part 61, the engine can go past TBO as long as it passed the 100hr inspection. With that being said, they stated when they shift to a Part 141, the engine much be overhauled or replaced at TBO.

even though I've only had 5 hours so far, I've had 3 different instructors due to schedules. Two were really good (one has left the company nad the other doesn't teach due to COVID) and the third was good, but always used every minute to teach something. Don't get me wrong, learning every...

I have about 5 hours in LSA and I agree that just being up there in the sky feels so free, but also know that there are many things to learn to become a safe and efficient pilot. I've risen in a couple regular planes (warrior and 172) and will say that the little LSA planes (training in a...

Nice job Andrew, I hope one day be able to get over to that airport. Still working on my Sport Pilot training out of KHFD. You still have the CTLSi or did you end up getting the F2?

Plane lands on roof and stays intact. injuries but no fatalities, which is great. Second time in that neighborhood in 10 years. https://www.wfsb.com/news/homeowner-thought-house-was-broken-into-following-plane-crash-in-groton/article_48e74042-e102-11ea-8a7b-0b3bf819c880.html
