helpful. You found my reason for the post. Thanks for the input guys, I'm still very new to flying.

Saw this video going through the old posts in the Daily Pics thread. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuyCC9LvleM there are a few planes landing in the grass in the video.. I can't figure out (aside from practice) why would you elect to land in the grass (and where others are taxiing) when a...

About the Halo's, I mentioned them to my CFI and his response was don't do an in-ear headset. Pressure being the one thing I remember him citing.. is it an issue? are there other reasons to not go in-ear? I love my in-ear headphones.

The other day I found out you can put in radials and DME from a VOR in as well... I used this in my VFR flight plan the other day in fore flight. I left KUES on runway heading towards the 191R on the Badger VOR then turned south on heading for the XC. KUES BAE/191/4.75 TRUDO ...

sorry, didn't have a link earlier.. they're up on youtube. Look in here for the IFR workshops. http://www.youtube.com/user/pilotedgeATC?feature=watch

I've been watching the pilot edge IFR workshops and i've found them very informative..

That's what I'm thinking!! I wasn't thrilled with the one I saw today, but the guy let me know of a Bonanza (250 or 260hp range) that might be coming up for sale too. Also, where this guy has his hanger seems to be one of the best kept secrets in the SE Wisconsin area!! Regardless of buying...

Wow nice plane! I'm thinking about going and looking at this one today. http://www.controller.com/listingsdetail/aircraft-for-sale/PIPER-COMANCHE-260/1964-PIPER-COMANCHE-260/1289651.htm Besides 10hp what is the difference between the 250 and 260? This is the first plane I'm going to...

Video of this? onboard and from outside?

My CFI saw one the other night during a night XC.. He told me about a time he reported one and saw law enforcement scramble on the ground and actually catch the guy doing it.

I did my written two weekends ago now, did my first solo two days before it. I've just finished up my solo XC requirements, need to get 6 more night landings then get to 40 hours while doing check ride prep with my CFI. I'm currently just under 30 hrs. My CFI is on vacation till 1/13/2014...

There's two was to get fast. Get fast, quickly and fall in the process while you're waiting for your experience to catch up with talent, judgement and balls. Or, get fast, slowly and not fall but take many years to do it. I opted for #2. And I "love" seeing white plates on trackday...

Thanks guys!! I'm doing my first solo XC to Oshkosh on Friday if the weather forecast holds up. I haven't gone to Timmerman yet, but I'm sure I will at some point soon!

And first post here!! Today was the kinda day I've been dreaming about since I started taking lessons about two months ago. I'm at 17 hours after today's fun. We did the usual 3 full stops then my CFI jumped out and off I went. I did the same and having the plane to myself was awesome and...

I was there a few weeks ago with a group from Spring City Aviation out of KUES. Fun time and neat intro to XC for me (not even 10 hrs in at that point) That burger was excellent but way too damn big!
