    AC-Aero RV10 Hawk V4

    I don't want to be the first, however interested in seeing how well this works out.

    Raptor Aircraft

    Don't know if it's required or not but I always use 'Experimental' on the first call ups or when talking to new controllers. After that just my tail number. Some people use 'RV' when talking to ATC and that might confuse them a bit. Incidentally I was flying IFR and when I went to center the...

    So I Did a Thing...

    Zero confidence - help!

    Have few drinks to relax you first! Not only will it give you confidence, but you’ll think your plane looks better than it does.

    Aircraft Selection App

    I don't know how realistic those operating costs are but it's pretty fun to mess with nonetheless.

    Cessna Crash Video from Cockpit..

    Perhaps, then again I’m never concerned with offending people on POA. For the most part it’s a fairly thick skinned group of aviation experts!

    Cessna Crash Video from Cockpit..

    Some may find that term along with LDS offensive. Church of Jesus Christ and the Later Day Saints is the acceptable by all term.

    Cessna Crash Video from Cockpit..

    Leave it to narcissism to provide you your answers. There's another video of the rear left passenger and her kids talking about the ordeal. The pilot dropped the gear and flew low to give the passengers a better view of the lake. They also show off their bruises received in the crash.

    Cessna Crash Video from Cockpit..

    God crashed a group of 6 people in the Utah mountains... God should have given the pilot the wisdom to practice his emergency procedures.

    Anyone Flying a Velocity V-Twin?

    Over the last few weeks I’ve talked with Velocity. I now have a much better understanding of the process. It’s actually a bit more straight forward than I had thought. Think of it as a velocity XL RG build with two engines. There’s a fairly high probability this might be my next build. Not...

    PA 28 Student pilot 350 lbs

    This is what I typically have in my 10. However right now I have a 35 lb plate back there because I was working in the hangar and got really thirsty.

    MSFS2020 Disappointment thread

    Bashing MS2020 and Office! I like them both - I view the game for what it is, a fun immersive airplane video game. I'm looking forward to some cool addon airplanes. Now onto Office.... I've tried a number of consumer products and always go back to Excel and Visio. Edit - I'm sorry thought we...

    Raptor Aircraft

    Mike Patey is an absolute craftsman with a solid understanding of actual true to life engineering. I don't see these qualities in Peter's build videos.

    Hangars Around OKC

    I’m out at Sundance and I believe there are a few available. I’m sure Wiley has some as well. El Reno is a bit away from OkC but if you’re that direction I actually know someone selling a hangar there.

    So, uhh... wow? (pilot in class Bravo without clearance, McCarran)

    FOIA requests usually result in complete non-redacted information. In this case they decided to leave his name, address and phone number in the audio recording, however redact some of the information on the forms. I listened to it out of curiosity of how these types of calls go. It was a bit...

    Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020

    You don’t find facts on Internet forums. You find opinions... and a lot of them at that. Negative ones are usually the loudest as well.

    Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020

    I played the beta on an old I7 processor and an Nvidia 970 and had to run it on low settings. It was less than optimal for sure. I now have an I9 with a 2080 and I run it at high and it's smooth. I tried ultra but it had a little but very noticeable stuttering so went back to high (I'm sure I...

    Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020

    I stopped playing the beta when I got a new machine and was just going to wait for the release version before I touch it again. Overall between beta and release it is a much improved version. My installation took about an hour, that was all just downloading but started right up after that. It...

    Hose clamp socket?

    I'm going to buy the snap on socket. I own zero snap on tools... I want to see what fancy tools are like.

    Hose clamp socket?

    Thanks, I was all over snap on site this morning and couldn't find it.
