We may not be what you're looking for, but we are located at P19 (7 miles west of CHD). if you want to do something at a fun, like familyk mom & pop send me a PM. We have two Warriors, and a Decthalon if you want to do any tailwheel while you're in the valley. If you *need* a big flight school...

I've bought/sold around 10 airplanes, and every time used an escrow company. Why? Because it's easier and less risk involved. It's worth the $500 alone for them to deal with the registration. If you even cough on it wrong they'll send it back... probably three or four times. It's more than worth...

It's important to keep small items hostage for times like these. When we're in KRAP we do offer mountain training in your aircraft. It's not the full taste of the Rockies but we can do a lot with what we have in the Black Hills.

We sold the 310 and miss her every day :( But if I could convince the new owner to bring it down I'd be up for a formation flight in her! And I do agree, the FBO at KRAP is quite nice, and good merchandise too ;)

Paging @bijanmaleki @bijanmaleki please report to this thread thank you but until he chimes in, why is a Conquest II not on your list?

For a pressurized cabin class twin I would expect sim school annually. I'm honestly not sure if they'd require any in-aircraft time since you have had some time in them prior but it's been awhile, if they do they may just make you fly them solo instead of with a CFI. But anymore it seems like...

"I landed in a corn field but it's fine and I'll fly again before I determine how to safely make it over the mountains"

I was bummed that they had to cancel the night airshow on Wednesday because we had to leave Thursday.. oh well, hopefully next year. Through work we had a free house available to us but it was up closer to Green Bay which was a bit of a hike but hey, it was free! And GRB had hangar (we booked...

Our flight school has two leasebacks. As the school we keep $25/hr. We manage the maintenance but we don't pay for any maintenance/tiedown/hangar costs. The aircraft are covered under our insurance policy (we have better coverage than they had as individuals too) but they pay their portion of...

The demonstrations in the sim are a scary and harsh reality for what would happen without autofeather between rotation and blue line. I'm 99% sure on the checklist we use it says under cruise "Autofeather - Off/As desired", not just "off"

And yet a 421 crashed in Monterey, meanwhile Jerry escapes unharmed... yet again.

We brought ours home in our 310. She now has probably 200 hours... I need to update her logbook. We used mutt muffs and as she got older she tolerated them more. We sold the 310 though and a big part of the reason was her.. I felt bad putting her in an airplane 6+ hours once a week when it was...

He is in for a very rude awakening. Crossing the Rockies is nothing like the "mountains" in Tennessee. And I say "mountains" because not long ago I was flying out east and someone told me to be careful of the terrain. What terrain?! I don't know much about Peter's background but I hope for his...

You need an attorney and an accountant. While this forum provides good advice, if you're wanting a business you need to start out on the right foot and get it done correctly and by professionals.

You gotta know someone to get hangar in the east valley.

It's important in some professions that people are open and honest about what they charge as contractors. Especially in aviation where some folks are desperate to work for free. On all the FB groups and such people openly discuss their day rates, ask for advice on them, check salaries and...

I'm surprised no one asked yet, what's your mission? I did trips in the 310 I never would have done in the 182. And I do trips in the Conquest I never would have done in the 310. It's a matter of mission and how often you need to complete it.

I really want a patch that says “I survived the Stanfield Stack”. I was in Bend last week in a turboprop. Granted, a Pilatus can do 85 knots down final or 160+ down final depending on what’s required for the situation. Yeah the place was busy but everyone was courteous and more than...

Tri state HTS has a restaurant in the terminal, pretty good actually and really cheap.

Beautiful, congrats!
