Congrats! The main memory from my first solo is that without the instructor in the plane I was at pattern altitude way before I was with him in the plane. I hadn't thought about that and he hadn't mentioned it. Kind off threw me off a little at first. I was used to turning as specific places in...

I've never used it regularly. Only a handful of times before I got my instrument. Was never really taught to use it back in the day when I got my private For boring holes in the sky I don't use it. If I go outside the immediate area since I've been instrument rated I normally file IFR now.

From 2:36 on that was basically a commercial for Oticon but he disguised it pretty well once he mentioned their name for the first time. I will check some of the others out though.

Which was my point from the beginning.

I meant why is this writer distinguishing that it was a southern accent since they mention "our politics" in the story since they apparently live in the SF area and speculates they voted for Trump. There's more to it than just to distinguish what kind of accent it was. There was a statement...

Yeah, I'm sure no other pilot has ever done that flying into Jackson MS, or Birmingham AL, etc. They just didn't have a stuck mic.

Distinguishing for what purpose?

"...An unidentified pilot with a southern accent..." I like how they throw that in there as if obviously this is somehow only a southern redneck/hillbilly opinion. I doubt any other accent would have been mentioned.

I had never heard the term. Rolling coal is the practice of modifying a diesel engine to increase the amount of fuel entering the engine in order to emit large amounts of black or grey sooty exhaust fumes into the air. Rolling coal is sometimes used as a form of anti-environmentalism.

So how are they for hearing so far? Pretty good? Can you really tell a difference?

Don't know whether that's so or not, but the interior off the 206 is a foot longer than the 182. Definitely a larger cabin as it has 6 seats.

I failed my first commercial check ride and went back to do what I messed up and no additional fee.

I lived in Pensacola two different times for a total period of about 6 to 7 years, and never visited that museum. I’m not sure if I’m aware it was even there. And I finished up my private while I lived in Pensacola.

Ridiculous.

Unfortunately I couldn't get my ME rating done before the end of March. :D

I just had a flight review at the beginning of March that I was trying to schedule before the time change to get night current but it didn't happen. Well the flight review did, but not at night.

I knew a CFI that didn't have a medical but would do commercial training since the other pilot was the PIC. Obviously you couldn't do primary because you'd have to be the PIC. I assume CFII would work too if you had that.

Great video.

So with what you've had, I know would probably be a long road to get your license back, but I was just wanting your personal thoughts on the process it if and when it happens.

Bingo. This subject would have never even crossed my mind in buying a jet or turboprop if eman hadn't brought it up.
