Mark Cook in Bemidji is a great DPE. Barnstormers Aviation.

If you buy and LLC that owns property, technically the property didn't change hands. So, perhaps no sales tax on the sale? I bought an LLC that owned a hangar, then years later sold the LLC. No tax due on the sale of the property, property ownership didn't change.

I never realized just how blue this forum was.

I removed 2 cockpit lights, Spruce has a product labeled a C-4A, looks like the same thing. They are adjustable from spot to flood and dim to bright. Spruce has them for $344 each, how about that for the pair. I have never used them, they were in a wreck I bought for a project.

Looking for a pair of steel cessna 180,182,185,206 axles. I also need nuts (not for wheel pants), alignment shims, gear leg shims and wedges.

Idiot! Why didn't they just put fuel in it and fly it off? Way faster than taking the wings off.

And who pays for all the "fixing" and trouble shooting? Not Uavionix!

A friend was telling me a story of their friend's child who is in flight training in the Atlanta area. In the story, the student pilot and her instructor heard someone on frequency asking for help, that their pilot was incapacitated. In the story, the flight instructor talked the passenger into...

Door is too small for most common planes. Hangar sounds too small for more than one plane.

I don’t see anywhere where he said he wanted a commercial helicopter license.

It’s not $40k, unless you are horribly in coordinated. I’m doing the rotor wing add on too. Requires 30 hours for checkride, 20 of those dual. Realistically probably 35 hours will get it done. $20k should cover it, I’ve talked with a few schools and several helicopter pilots.

Ugly, thats what it is!

I was once wanting to fly ag. I have about 1000hrs tailwheel now, C180, experimental, BT-13, Stinson Reliant, Husky, and Cub. I spoke with several operators, all but one said I'd have to load for a "year or two". I had turbine time too, that didn't matter. The only guy that said he would put me...

Lots of sketchy stuff goes on in Alaska, even with those who are fully certificated.

About 50hrs amphib time, Husky and 172

If you last flew tailwheel 25 years ago and it was in a 140, I would bet its like starting over. I don't think 180's are hard to handle, but people wreck them with regularity. Seems like there is always at least one ground looped 180 on the salvage sites. If your vertical speed at touchdown it...

As the details slowly come out, it appears to me that the objection is a fear generated by lack of knowledge and “I just don’t like it”. Sounds like the people that pitched a fit when I put in my runway at my house. Doom and gloom, it’s going to crash into my house!

I have seen that done. It doesn't work very well. Weather sealing doesn't work, security is non-existent. I put outswinging doors in my current house due to 12" thick walls. Out swing doors are NOT common, try to find one in stock anywhere, or even a company to make one. There are...

The other day I was flying back home from Smiley Creek. 8,500 17.5", 2300rpm, OAT 60, 129kts to 132kts true.
