I’m intending to do mine in a husky. But, I have to wait until the water isn’t hard.

I was 45 in 2016, I soloed at about 20 hours. I flew 16 hours with my first instructor over about 3 months. He was not a good instructor for me. Did checkride at 54 hours. Got a tail wheel endorsement in 2.3 hours. That instructor was excellent, felt like I was flying with a lifelong friend...

like adsb would mean squat in this situation.

My 1953 Cessna POH, explains rigging procedures. Like any owner would rig their own plane in 2022!

Strip the yokes and paint, or powder coat. My closed loop on my 53 cleaned up nicely.

I’ve now got over 400 hours in my 180, 675 hours tail wheel, instrument, commercial, and my insurance went up at renewal. They also won’t give my higher that $155k on the hull value. Anyone priced tricked out 180’s lately? $155k would get me a donor to start improving.

Anyone looking for a used tail beacon? I wish I’d gone another route. Would have been cheaper in the long run.

I’ve never done it, but I’ve heard of planes taking off a couple hundred pounds over gross!

Thanks to everyone for the posts. it was never something I even thought possible. But, here it is. The DC3 is truly my speed. Excited about the Beaver too.

Yes. I took care of their ranch for 13 years. My initial flight training 6 years ago was a year end bonus. I’ve known them for 20 years. They know me, I know them.

I’m retiring as a framer of 38 years. Started framing when I was 14. I still enjoy it, but it’s time to move on. My NEW job is flying for a family, part 91. Starting out shuttling people and supplies in the Bahamas in a Grand Caravan. I go to flight safety for Caravan initial February 2. I’ve...
