    Solo flight - Anxiety (I'm not a student, tho maybe I should be)

    Yeah stop getting your wing held. Jump out of the nest and go build some time. Fly around the city or plan a nice XC. Also, dont go get into actual IMC if you are this nervous flying VFR.

    Can Mooney and Cirrus save General Aviation?

    Opinions

    I use to be a really big BO guy, but never owned one. Just like they way they look and space. But my current plane is a Mooney 20C. It's pretty roomy for two person flying. It may have 4 seats but its pretty tight. But the fuel economy is outstanding! I Get 120KTS on 6.5 GPH, then 145KTS on 8.5...

    What should the controller have done?

    I think it's actually an influx in new controllers at ATL center. I've had some controls who will give me one thing then about the time I key up to repeat another voice comes on and changes what they said. But I agree with folks saying you should have said unable. It's hard to remember...

    @ 1000 hrs - Need some Advice

    @USAF-LT-G , I'm not sure why you would think it is going to cost 15K for an IR rating, Mine was only 7K. Plus I'm sure if you do some digging around there is someone else wanting to work on the same thing you are. Find someone and split the cost.If you are paying that much you are getting...
