    What are you flying?

    I flew a Baron 58 for a while. No one complained about it. I doubt my wife would have liked it, but she's a little motion sensitive. She usually sat up front with me. The two flights I remember her in the back she faced forward. She doesn't like to sit backwards in a train. The kids and I...

    Retirement questions

    You have to look for one that you just pay a fee. It does take some looking though. Many of them are looking to sell products other than their financial planning services.

    Retirement questions

    Paying it off is nice for many people, especially those that rely heavily on SS income in retirement. We have a mortgage on our townhome, but at just over 3% I'll let it ride. My dividend stocks pay way above that, and the long term market growth is well above that too. I agree that I...

    If you plan to fly a Cirrus should you train in a Cirrus?

    Depends upon your experience and which model of Cirrus. At first I thought it would take a few to several sessions to get use to the side stick. After we ended the first session I realized I was using the side stick without even thinking about it. The glass was different for me as I'd flown...

    Which Planes to Consider?

    Lots of good suggestions here. Keep training and then start trying out different planes in the area that you can find as rentals. Unfortunately it can be hard to find some of those listed here on the rental line. Don't totally give up on the retract options. A 182RG will move along pretty...

    Cirrus vs. Other for Training

    While you are training you will be flying with an instructor, CFI (Certified Flight Instructor), except when flying solo. Your instructor will have more experience and should be able to deal with issues as well as they can be dealt with if something occurs.
