Here we go! Passed! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can’t thank you all enough. It’s true that there is “no such thing as a perfect checkride”, but passing is passing and I’m a private pilot now boys! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks! Got my XC assignment around noon. I’ve done the plan and have gone over it a couple times. Scouring it for obscure symbols, chart supplement gotchas, and airspace. [emoji1696] found a noise abatement procedure at the destination I hope comes up [emoji1787] Edit: I genuinely don’t...

Well - I have my cross country assignment; to KMCD from 8D4. I have the path planned out and am studying the airspace(s) now. Weather looks good for tomorrow - let's hope the airplane is all ready! (yes, I've reviewed the log books - have notes on them, including the required inspections and...

Maybe I should wait until after the check ride to reveal this? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good perspective. Aaaand literally as I’m typing this reply I’ve received my CFI’s endorsement. [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have some one full mock CR with a CFI including an oral, and one that was just flight. My biggest concern is the oral but I’ve been watching and listening to as much mock CR content as I can find. Plenty of it thank goodness. +1 for fly8ma Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Man guys - this is fantastic stuff. I’ll be reviewing and executing it all this weekend. Thanks a ton! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great point. Initial PPL. I have a well bookmarked digital version that has seen (but doesn’t show [emoji22]) much use. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

WX forecast for Tuesday looks good (so far [emoji1696])! I’m working on highlighting the requirement flights in my log, organizing / documenting the airplane logs, reading the ACS and oral prep books but i want to know what Nuggets you all might recommend that i won’t find in these books. What...

Wait wait. @Patrick was that posted here in 2012?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You're completely right. Something tells me Captain Dave is happily retired somewhere though - just wish it were here on PoA lol.

Thanks a lot Zeek. I have a date! June 1st, 9am. I ferried the plane back from maintenance yesterday at the end of the day and it’s running great. Top end overhaul, new magnetos, new mixture control, new exhaust stack, plus a fresh annual. We’ll be ready lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Capitan Dave blogged at flightlevel390.blogspot.com for more than 13 years. Anyone remember this? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s sounds like the best outcome. Hope I’m as lucky as you guys. [emoji106][emoji1696] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What a fricken story man, congratulations!! Nothing feels quite as good as nailing it in dodgy conditions, after (at least for me) feeling completely unable to keep the plane in the air in those conditions just 10hrs ago. I had a similar experience (without a DPE watching of course) just a few...

Yeah. That sounds really annoying. Hope you get some good flying in Thursday and Friday! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
