Thanks for the file, lots of good info

Well the twin does have a tricycle gear....:rolleyes:

Not much to add for whats already been said. I do monitor Guard if I have 2 coms. Pilots in SE AK give position reports on 122.9, that is what I monitor and report on during a flight.

I lost vision in my right eye in 2020. Over the past 9 months I have been relearning how to land. I had my FR signed off after spending a several hours with a CFI relearning how to land with the loss of depth perception. My question to other mono vision pilots is what do you do to compensate...

Good thing they found and fixed that problem. How long did you fly with that problem?

Good read thanks for posting @DavidWhite

Single engine, night flight over wooded, mountainous terrain with poor weather, I'm eating steak or pizza and drinking beer or whiskey or both at the pub.

Happy B-day Billy. Sounds like a good lunch, I'd eat it...:rolleyes:

Cramp in the right wing...:rolleyes: Good thing he/she got it extended just in the nick of time....:)

Tread drift 101 by POA....:rolleyes: Going to be expensive to fix that wing. A friend flies a Lear for work. The Lear recently when in for maintenance and upgrades by a company that specializes in Lear jets. Joe told me the maintenance team was impressed with how well his company maintained the...

So is a lie on national Tell a Lie Day, true?

The hangar I rent has a bifold door. The one feature I like are the sections of the door that have plastic panels. They let a good bit of light thru.

Well it seems like he has a great deal of experience. Guess we will have to wait and see how things unfold
