Looks great. Wish they were closer to where I’m based.

There was an effort back in early 2000’s to obtain an STC for an IO-360 and constant speed prop. That never came to fruition.

As a long time Grumman owner, first a Cheetah and now a Tiger, I have not heard anything about this for a long time. I think the “update” from True Flight is a very old one. Nothing has been mentioned about this on the Grumman Gang list server or GOPA, the Grumman users group.

I’ve used that for years with no issues. I paint it on the threads sparingly all the way around.

And practice setting it up BEFORE you leave for SnF!

How are the shower facilities at SnF? Also, how long are the stakes you use?

Hug your kids and grandkids today. So sad….RIP.

Ok, thanks. I’ll probably go through one more renewal of the SI, and go from there. The six years should be enough to get my PCP/myself comfortable so that they won’t stop allowing him to sign the BM paperwork. My annual exam covers everything required for the BM, including the prostate exam.

Follow up question…. My SI just says I need to send in my annual reports. If I I keep doing that even without a class 3 medical or exam, will they will continue to re-issue the SI?

No, my SI does not say I need to do another sleep study. My concern was if I went to BM, and let it lapse along with my Class 3, but my PCP decided not to continue to sign BM forms due to liability concerns in the future, IF I wanted to go back to Class 3, would I need another sleep study to get...

How was the service? Used to take forever to get your meals At lunch on a Saturday.

I currently hold a class 3 with SI for sleep apnea. I also hold a BM certificate. My SI is valid until 2028, so will continue with both and let the SI expire, and then go fully BM. In the meantime, Im training my PCP on BM. :) Doing both will make sure my PCP AND his practice is comfortable...

Wow! I’ve been considering the same thing recently. Thanks for the thread.

I would tend to agree with that statement. My Tiger… $1050 to insure ( $80k hull) + $1000 for fixed annual = $2050. Beech Bonanza …. $3200 to insure at $80K + $1800 fixed annual = $5000. Hmmm? Seems about double!

We are in NW Franklin County in Dublin, just north of Hilliard. Sirens went off around 5 am, and continued off and on until about 5:50. Madison County Airport looks like it took a direct hit on the big hangar there. Reminded me of the 2019 tornados in Dayton when we lived in Englewood, a...

That is exactly where I’ve been stuck for the last 5-8 years. Would really like something faster than my Tiger, but at the end of the day, I just don’t do the travel flying I used to. The Tiger is great for what flying I do these days.

I wish you guys would stop tempting me with the airplane porn!

Hmmm…. Maybe I should start an Old Farts Flying group here in Ohio? :happydance: Week day flying only!

“One of the mental challenges has been taking money out of investments. I've always treated that as a one-way street and it's taken about a year to mentally calibrate that it's why we saved and invested for nearly 40 years.” The above is one of the biggest challenges When you retire. I posted...

And you know there is a way to prevent that! :) Ahhh… yes, I do remember that period of time called sports weekend life!
