    Paper vs LED

    25 years ago I moved to a new state. There were no good road maps. I was getting frustrated trying to drive around the crazy freeway system they created. I finally pulled out a sectional to give me a clear picture of the layout of the city. It was my roadmap for awhile.

    Lien question

    I would ask the seller for a copy of the paperwork that was sent to FAA. If the seller provides all the correct documentation that the lien has been satisfied, then that would be good enough for me.

    I am Looking for a composite repair expert.

    I checked out their site. The line of aircraft they work on fits just right.. I will give them a call, but their website sounds like they are only doing service work for their existing customer base.

    New owner registration processed

    I just looked up the Aircraft Registration Database, and both of my recently purchased airplanes are now registered to me. The issue dates are 2-22-23 and 2-23-23. The odd thing is that I submitted the papers 6 months ago on the 1 that was issued last, and I only sent in the papers a month...

    Looking at their gallery, Straight Flight would not waste their hangar space for my repair.

    I am Looking for a composite repair expert.

    Does anybody have a recommendation? I am looking for somebody or some company that is very experienced with carbon fiber airframe building or repair. Somewhere in the South Central USA is best.

    L.A. weather

    That's what everybody in SoCal says. You can go surfing in the morning then snow skiing in the afternoon. I did it once.

    This is why they sell trip insurance.

    Educate me on why this plane has not sold

    Flown 2500 hrs since accident doesn't make it no big deal. Since logs are missing for that date, all records need to be ordered from FAA. All 337 forms should be in the records. Start by looking at what was repaired, how it was repaired, and who repaired it. Evaluate this first, then look...

    I have given up looking for a new, to me truck, for now

    I don't know. I like my mini fwd suv. 44 mpg and I can get a lot more in it than in the truck. I can slide in 10' lumber and close the door. In my 10mpg truck, I would have to tie it down sticking out the back. This picture is 14' long porch columns for the house. It was a 300 mile trip to...

    Educate me on why this plane has not sold

    Beauty in the eyes of the beholder. Paint the top cowl and it's good enough for me. The paint looks like it has a good gloss and looks like it is doing its job to protect the aluminum from weather. Interior looks like it would work for me too. My first concern is always functionality over...

    Looking for a time builder airplane (grab some popcorn and enjoy the show).

    Yeah, I really don't know why the majority of students, or instructors didn't like the Tomahawks. I bought mine from a flight school that bought it new. They sold it because nobody would ever rent it.

    Change of career

    Pilots had to be really dedicated back then. After all that struggling, it was still difficult to land a good job. Todays prospective career pilots have it so much easier.

    Change of career

    Yup, times really have changed, but what you made in 1996 is pretty comparable adjusted for inflation. $22k in 1996 is worth $42k today. I think you made out well for that time period. When I was training at that time, instructors were begging to give me free lessons in my plane so they can...

    Change of career

    I had a job doing island hoping. One of the other pilots was a retired school teacher. She never even had a flight lesson until after she retired. She was an awesome lady and pilot. She was 77 at the time I moved on to another job.
