I'm planning a flight from FRG (Farmingdale, NY) to LDJ (Linden, NJ) to pick up a friend. This will be my first flight into a GA airport that's within class Bravo airspace. My question is: Do I need to talk to approach or simply stay under the bravo (TPA is 799-to stay under 800 Bravo floor)...

LOL @ "The plane stuck near the Sanibel Lighthouse was on the way to repair the plane that was originally stuck in San Carlos Bay."

Hey, You forgot your tail.

Exactly. I have never asked ATC that. They usually tell me where to get off, before I'd get a chance to ask. But if I wanted something else, I would just say unable, I will take A5 (or whatever it is) I fly out of a busy airport, and when a GA plane lands on RWY 32, they like us to exit at...

Reading between the lines it seems that... having another kid will mean less flying money for you. In my irrelevant opinion, you have already compromised and agreed to have a kid. I think it's a little unfair for her to expect you to agree to have another kid when she knows (does she know?)...

Last week, I got a strange craving for chicken nuggets, so went to McD's and ate a WHOLE 20 piece with medium fries (they add too much salt).

Fish are square too, and deeeee-licious. They have a Pollock sandwich. It's listed under "Local Flavors" on their digital menu boards. I'm in NYC, so I guess they fish it out of the East River.

One idea that I had and will incorporate into my flying is making myself a reminder list of things that can be easily forgotten. Basically a checklist for things that may not necessarily be on a real checklist. Things that are easy to forget if you don't fly too often, like switching tanks...

I got my PPL in Oct 2015. In these past 27 months, I have taken no more than 15 flights. Changing jobs, and more family stuff, it has been harder to find time to fly. In the past, I "had to" go flying since it was scheduled and I had to finish, but now that urgency is not there. The most time...

The route that I'm looking at flies A320's.

I think it's a new airline based in Mexico if I'm not mistaken. They are offering decent fares to Central America from NY. Never heard of them. TIA

Yeah, I figured it was probably random. I'm not worried about it, just thought it was ironic. I attached a screenshot attached in the original post.

In the story about the missing Cirrus over the gulf of Mexico is an ad for life insurance that states "Rest In Peace". I'm pretty sure those are randomly generated as to when and where they appear but it's almost as if it was purposefully (and distatsefully uploaded there)...

There were high winds, to the point where the incoming flight was diverted.

I was the person who mentioned Twin Otters. But they switched to Caravans at some point in the past few years. I haven't flown them for a number of years. And they fly at 10-11k if I remember correctly. I always tried to sit in the first row, breathing down the pilots' necks, literally...

I have taken a few flights within Costa Rica, a couple with this company that crashed Nature Air and a couple with the other one Sansa. To get to the nicer beaches on the Pacific coast from the capital, it's either a 5 hour car/bus ride up and down mountains and single lane roads or a 60 minute...

The only time I have ever used "with you" is after landing. Instead of handing off to ground, the tower sometimes, if not busy, will give the taxi instructions back to the ramp and asks to remain on tower frequency. Tower: Cherokee 1234AB, taxi to ramp via B and K and remain with me" Me: "Back...

I hope you get a good alarm system/attack dogs. Wouldn't want to get burglarized while you sleep, especially the toy trailer. Would it still be called car-jacking or house-jacking if you were to get car jacked? :p

Funny, I went to Syracuse for my undergrad (could explain my orange handle, or maybe I like oranges very much, or some kind of Trump connection, who knows). Lived on campus 3 years. Worked in the Carrier Dome all 4 years, basically ran the merchandise dept as a Senior. Great school, but the...

Thanks for the post. But spending 2-3 hours on the road (especially in bumper to bumper traffic) is opposite of my idea of quality of life. I can move to Long Island, get a house for half of NYC prices, but I'd be doing 1-5 hrs in traffic each way. Not for me, I like to spend the majority of...
