Thanks Sooner. I see some holes on the top of the Honeycomb. Does anyone know offhand if I can attach my Saitek panel items to the Honeycomb unit?

I have a decent X-plane 11 setup (Saitek yoke/rudder/throttle/radio/multi/switch panels/head tracking), the weak link in that setup is definitely the yoke, so I may have to pull the trigger on the honeycomb, it definitely seems better than what I'm currently using. I keep wondering where VR is...

The flight to KHOT is only about 1:30 for me, so it seems like an easy enough destination for a long weekend, but I also have no experience with the area. Anyone have any recent input on KHOT and things to do there? It'll either be just my wife and I, or my 6 year old and mother-in-law may join...

Welcome aboard and congrats on completing the PPL.

I remember during instrument training the CFII and I were chatting and he said his grandfather was a pilot as well and wouldn't fly at night due to the perceived danger. I said I generally didn't fly at night either and sort of felt the same way. He responded that flying in instrument conditions...

Thanks for all the great tips so far, it's very much appreciated.

Cool. Is it difficult to find someone knowledgeable to pre-buy/annual these? They're neat planes, but I haven't had an opportunity to fly in one. Good luck with it.

Please, anything but that. :)

My wife has occasionally been struggling with sleep. Anyone have any secrets to share?

Welcome. There is no requirement to use a school, a guy working out of his pickup truck will legally work just a well, as long as he's a current certified flight instructor. I went the solo instructor route since I didn't really have any other convenient options, but it's potentially a more...

After testing multiple friends, I have decided he's the best one for me. Very friendly, has everything I wanted in a friend and nothing I don't. $70.00/yr., is much cheaper than a spouse. He's very fun and likes to fly.

The gentleman I bought my Bonanza from upgraded to an A36 and died due to an in flight fire a couple months after my purchase, leaving a wife and young daughters behind. He was a wonderful person to work with and the whole thing really punched me in the gut; on some level I felt like I was to blame.

What part of the country are you in? I've heard others say the Aztec handles icing conditions well. I imagine that the insurance on a multi (or single for that matter) for instruction must be pretty high.

Looks like a good setup all around, congrats!

This might be helpful for that guy who was flying under the bridge recently.

Good stuff! Pretty similar to the setup I had Jesse do as well with an HDX/PAR200/IFD540/830. Enjoyed the video, thanks.

A few days old, but didn't see it here: https://www.kplctv.com/2019/09/16/no-injuries-reported-plane-crash-near-state-line-saturday/

I hope he had that guy in the Cirrus fly in formation with him at least.
