    Flying Keys/Caribbean - Meetup or Tips?

    I have not been to Oshkosh yet but I'm told by those that have done both that they liked the scaled down version of Sun n' Fun since you can cover it in a couple of days. My personal favorites are Friday/Saturday but if you love seaplanes then you'll want to catch the Splash-in on Thursday...

    iPad or iPad Mini?

    I went for it all with the iPad mini and I bought the 64gb 4G so that I wouldn't have to worry about space or gps. With everything that I have loaded on my iPad mini I have so far used 34gb. If there really is a iPad mini coming out with retina display and 120gb of space you may want to wait if...

    let's talk about wind...

    EDIT: After having had the opportunity to utilize this app I must admit that I have found it to a very useful part of my EFB for flight planning. :yesnod:

    let's talk about wind...

    Some of my best landings have come to me on extremely windy and gusty days. Some seem to think that it's because I'm concentrating on flying the plane all the way to the hangar. The more crosswind the better the landing, but that doesn't mean that I haven't had to pry my clammy hands off the...

    What would you pay?

    Find a cheap Cessna 152 that is in desperate need of a new interior and combine it with your new interior offer and you'll have my attention plus the attention of a much larger audience for your Raffle. :yesnod: Or start a thread with a poll that asks: "Would you buy a raffle ticket for a new...

    It does appear to be a former roadway since there are passing lane markings on it but the pavement does not appear to join up with the main road giving the impression that it's an abandoned road.:dunno: I wish there was some sort of recognizable landmark that I could use to pinpoint the...

    Apparently none of the issues that you have listed were of any concern to the guy in this video. :yikes:

    Pilot lands his Cessna (N8125T) in a snow filled field after carburetor icing causes forced landing. What I can't figure out and I don't mean to second guess since I wasn't there, is why did he choose the field over the roads that can be seen in the area. Aftermath video...

    Track Up or Track North?

    That would be great, then when you miss your FAF it would tell you in her British voice "Recalculating, Begin Missed Approach".:rofl:

    Guam-KJAX in Lancair!

    I just called one of the FBO's at KJAX to find out what time he was expected to arrive and all I got was the quote "We can not give out that information". I thought it would be nice to welcome him to Jacksonville but I'd rather not spend the afternoon trying to figure out which company he'll...
