Ironically enough I’ll be in Fargo that day. My wife is 32 going on 60 and we’re going to see Bob Seger at the Fargodome :cornut:

.......yes I tried google. Excuse me for trying to ask the board for first hand knowledge :rolleyes2: I might have the vacation time to do this, so it might actually be an option. Unfortunately he’s using rewards points on Norwegian, so he’s limited in options. Looking at Orlando/Miami Good...

My brother is coming to the US to visit me in November and we are floating the idea of island hopping the Bahamas. I have access to a Mooney, however, both the plane and I are in North Dakota. So even at Mooney speeds, I’d be looking at 20+ hours just to and from Florida. He is most likely going...

I flew into KGRB a couple years ago and from what I remember the gas wasn’t cheap, but no fees for our stop. We did not spend the night though. Now the real question is why do you wanna watch the Packers? :cornut:

PPL in KBIS 2015 $350 IFR in KMDS 2018 $400 (+$100 retest fee since I screwed up on it) CPL in KBIS 2019 $600 Planning on CFI in KBIS this month. DPE told me $600

Congrats!

I have no idea where in the country you are from, but I would try to find something much cheaper to start and build the majority of your XC and simulated time. Then take a week at the end and just go hardcore anywhere in the country. That's what I did, and finished up at Riggin in Madison, SD...

I have yet to go there, so I'll say I wanna go and hopefully make it next year.

No, because if you have a tag you can give it to the police who will then investigate, not go on some vigilante mission. It is. Doesn't even take a subpoena in some states, just a reasonable reason for request to the DOT.

Here in North Dakota, Knoephla (yeah, try pronouncing that one....it's "nef-lah"...lol) is a dish I'd never heard of or tried before moving here. It's pretty good, but don't even think about eating it if you're counting calories :yikes: Before @EdFred posted that, I was gonna say it sounds...

I'll pick based on a combination of fuel price and convenience. For example, I prefer to land at towered airports on a cross country, even though the gas might be slightly more expensive. Usually a towered airport is in a place with nearby hotels and restaurants, so that makes it an easier...

Yeah, Cowboy was the guy who sold him the plane... Not even kidding.

On the event I took part in, none of the pilots used an experimental. We had an Arrow, couple 172s, Cherokee 6, 150.

I can see the concern in that there is no website that you can enter your license plate and track you in real time. With ADSB, this is possible with airplanes. Yes, your car is tracked by cameras etc, but it's not publicly accessible.

I've heard 4E8 doubles as a runway/cow pasture and is really rough with scattered piles of poo.

I noticed you skipped the dam airport, but have you also been to 4E8, Y99 and Y71? I am still too scared to land the Mooney on grass, so I don't know when I'll get to collect all these airport lacking pavement.

Surprised this wasn't posted yet. Class act of FedEx. https://www.localmemphis.com/news/parents-of-teen-killed-in-ms-plane-crash-receive-surprise-from-fedex-while-preparing-for-her-memorial-service/

A King Air working on night currency did exactly that at our Class D a couple weeks ago. Roll out, turn around, cleared for takeoff. Over and over. Same for my commercial I just did. In a Mooney even. I do them in the Mooney all the time. I also land with half flaps, so I’m already set for...

Yup. He mutilated it. And it was only a few months old even. Still shiny. :happydance: :cheers:

That was my thinking too. I figured I’d do myself a disservice trying to make it easier. Nice try :D I’ll be more than happy to refer you to a Part 135 carrier though :p
