    Instrument Rating Ground Course Recommendations? CFI Lament with Inst Pilot Rating Student

    I think that FlightInsight is the best, but watch some of their youtube videos and decide for yourself.

    Cessna Owner Organizations

    I took this course in 2023 and loved it. Paul New taught it and he is amazing. https://cessna.org/shop/courses/systems-course/in-person/legacy-182-1956-1986-models-systems-procedures-in-person-course-cincinnati-oh-june-7-9-2024/

    Is there a Pt135 for Dummies?

    Hehe, he asked for a synopsis, not the works.

    GAMI Responds to Cirrus G100UL Service Advisory

    Cirrus seems to have issued an advisory based on n=1, and even for that n=1 they have no evidence that the fuel caused the problem. https://www.flyingmag.com/aircraft/gami-responds-to-cirrus-g100ul-service-advisory/

    It sounds like once you figure out which fields to look at and who to call, there are viable options. I am looking forward to learning that, because I'd really like to explore Europe by plane one day (all VFR). Thank you.

    I would love to fly around the EU some day, but am super scared of the bureaucracy.

    These folks need to be stopped.

    Very well said. If more Americans had this kind of attitude, it would be a much better country.

    Do they really have any IP that the Chinese already don't know/own?

    PA-31 down near KALB

    A very tragic accident with a 34 year old pilot with a recent ATP rating. She was highly experienced in many flying environments. Too many accidents recently. :(

    A revolutionary way to fly a helicopter (and soon planes?)

    I am curious why it takes a minimum of 20 (dual) + 10 (solo) hrs to get a heli rating after you get your fixed wing PPL, if you say it's not that difficult? That is the scenario I am comparing to drones, which take minutes to master.

    Help me choose a plane for my mission (Hawaii)

    If I were you, I would get a 182 P/Q/R with ~1300 lbs of useful load and put a BRS in it (takes up 85 lbs and some baggage room). With ~1200 lbs of useful (after BRS), you will be able to fill 40 gal of fuel (240 lbs) and have 950 lbs of payload. 40 gals is good for 2 hrs (plus 1 hr reserve)...

    Is this 747 take-off real or fake?

    This seems super risky to me:

    More trouble for 737 Max?

    It seems we still don't know what caused the issue:

    A revolutionary way to fly a helicopter (and soon planes?)

    I hope this approach works for helis and planes of the future. It's painful to think that, as a private plane pilot, I have to spend months and $20K to become a helicopter pilot, when I can learn to fly a DJI drone in minutes (and have never crashed it).
