    At the front end, I need to confess that this thread is a shameless take off on LD Jones’s fantastic thread, but I really wanted to share my story with the group in the hopes that some of you will be inspired. My background is that of an accountant and lawyer, but I started a Human Resources...

    Malibu operating costs...

    Hey,Ken! Long time, buddy. We need to connect soon. Another good friend of mine asked me about the Meridian about three years ago, as he was looking at upgrading from his Cirrus. I told him then that if I had it to do over again, as much as I loved my Meridian, I would skip it and go straight...

    HKY breakfast run on tuesday?

    That’s my second home base! I love that airport. There us a great little restaurant about 3 miles away called Amos Howard that has great bar food and BBQ. Whenever I arrive there, I try to time it to go there for lunch on the way to the house! Abram Finkelstein N48KY

    Malibu operating costs...

    I apologize for disappearing, but it’s been a busy couple of days. It has been several years since I owned the Meridian, but I will take a look at my records and see what I can find to give better operating cost indications. Anecdotely, the Meridian was an incredibly efficient airplane to own...

    TBM Crash May Implicate ATC

    It sounds logical and easy to assume that the first thing you should do when there is a pressurization problem is Don the Mask at 100%. After all, it's the first thing on the checklist!! However, it is never as easy in real life as it is on web forums. It is easy to identify a massive...

    Damage at HKY

    The crazy thing is that I was supposed to be there yesterday and leave this mornign. That is the airport that I fly into when I go visit the lake house on Lake James and I needed to get there. I ended up having to postpone my trip for two weeks. My plane would have been in that hangar that is...

    It's the Legacy 500 and it is an absolutely beautiful airplane. Really great for the pilots and the passengers, alike! When I'm not flying my Eclipse, I get to fly that and occasionally the Phenom 300. Hopefully, my Phenom time will start to increase in the near future! Abram Finkelstein N48KY

    Elliptical Trainers Question

    I have similar issues with running and plan to get something for my house, as well. I have not used the Max, but have heard great things about it. I am a big fan of the Arc Trainer, which is similar to an elliptical but has a much wider range of motion and emulates the feel of running. I get...

    Airline Pilot Quality of Life

    This topic is near and dear to my heart. I have spent a lot of time on the Airline Pilots Forum for the past few years, as I contemplate different avenues to do more professional flying. The two most common complaints are pilot compensation and Quality of Life. The two factors that seem to...
