If they made it 25% of the subscription price rather than a 25% discount of the subscription price I would be ok with it. Until then, other fish in the sea.

I use my phone with avare. But I have an android foldable. Oneplus Open. The inner screen size unfolded is about the same usable size as the ipad mini5. I use it all the time whenever I forget my ipad. I still mainly use the ipad mini 6 with FlyQ because I bought a lifetime subscription years ago.

Speaking of justifying budgets. The defense budget should be clipped down to the amount they can prove in the last audit. That's 40% percent defense spending right off the bat if we go by the last audit.

One of the worst practices in my opinion is the idea or practice of using all of an allocated budget or lose it for next year. Wasteful spending incentivized.

That would be great, I'll be flying as much as I can on my 4 day weekend. I'll send a PM with my contact so we can coordinate and confirm a time.

I would review all the price gouging by companies that sell to the government.

As others have posted, come down the coast, shouldn't be a problem to get flight following. Lots of planes so keep your head on a swivel. Tampa controllers are great, sometimes busy. If you don't get flight following, the big stadium is a prominent landmark due west of the airport and the...

I like Bartow but I have more experience flying into Winter Haven. Winter Haven has a restaurant. With these options with IAPs and mechanics on field relatively close, I would base my decision on driving distance and time in traffic. ATP has a school at Lakeland, as well as a few other bigger...

I found the IFR communications manual very useful.

Congratulations!!

I used to fly with a friend that was working on his instrument. We would fly together on cross countries, taking turns. I worked on keeping proficient and he was practicing for his instrument rating. We tried to get at least two approaches each. I would say he flew twice as often with his CFII...

100% agree with above. I fell in love with the Piper Cub when I went to do my spin endorsement for CFI. I pretty much paused my CFI training to get my tailwheel endorsement. I think it was valuable to feel like a student pilot all over again and even had a first 'solo' in the tailwheel. I'll be...

I've been teaching boxing since 2007 and I enjoyed reading most of the Aviation Instructors handbook. I could relate to the material and I know it has filtered into and made my boxing instruction better as a result. Really wish I got to it earlier in my aviation career because I think it would...

Grumman Traveler AA-5.

That's a great score, hopefully that momentum carries you on to kick butt on the checkride!

About 9 years ago, I attended a rusty pilot seminar at sun n fun, it counted as the 1 hour ground for a flight review. Dozens of pilots there, maybe next year I'll be standing nearby with business cards ready to go!

Thanks for the reminder, I knew I was forgetting to do something last weekend.

6 hours straight, no intermediate landing? Bathroom before flight. Empty water bottle for #1. I like to start a long day of anything hungry. No big meals beforehand, small snacks packed to eat along the way. Plenty of water. Just 2% dehydration taxes your mental focus greatly.

I fly out of Zephyrhills, have a plane. I know it's not super close but if you ever want to practice outside of your normal practice areas we could alternate practicing staying current in each other's patches. Will be working on my CFII soon, so I can use the IFR exercise.

I have obtained a couple lesson plan sets commercially prepared. One is a slick and beautiful set. Another is barely adequate. But none have my personal touch. I'm a new CFI. I drafted a bunch of lessons in my voice and because I intend to a be CFI for life, I will be modifying them continuously...
