    Early Solo and Low time PPL

    See below what is required for solo. As for me, my students have to be proficient in these areas, they also need to be able to get in and out of a neighboring Class C without my help. Why the class C? I instruct out of a very busy D, and on a few occasions the runways have been shut down due...

    Coddled college kids

    But who is to blame? This is my coddled kids, pretty much due to my wife. I always told them walk or ride a bike. But she would drive them 3 blocks to school.

    IFR Aircraft vs VFR Traffic Pattern...?

    Another debate of what pilots have the bigger we we complex. All pilots need to lose the entitled attitude that other people have to give way. Big deal if you have to expand downwind for an extra 2 miles. If you are doing a straight in, maybe slow it down so the other guy can land ahead of you...

    Nicotine addicts

    I am always amused by when people complain about cigarette smokers. But then go smoke a cigars. It’s like cigars are good because they are classy, but cigarettes are trashy.

    Goodbye KRHV Reid Hillview

    We all know how this ends. Everyone can write letters, make phone calls, do everything possible. But the decision is made by people that will profit from developers. Only thing people can do is run for these town boards and local offices to try and stop the closing of airports.

    Oshkosh and Covid

    Is it still summer 2020? I don’t believe people are still afraid of Covid, but hey that’s their choice. And people still arguing over Covid Thais far along is even crazier. Especially from people that get in tin vans with an engine and go fly around, which is something most other people consider...
