Thanks! I actually spoke to him a couple of weeks ago and drove down there but it’s literally and hour away from my house and the runway is tiny….

The bigger issue than the paint here in Vegas is the sun and insane heat that destroys interiors. Even with shades.

Thanks flocker - I'm only a renter for hangars at this point...

Thanks! Much appreciated!

Subletting or renting a spot in a large hangar

Apologies in advance if I’ve posted this to the wrong discussion thread. Please let me know where to post this if it is in the wrong place. I’m looking for hangar space to rent either KVGT, KHND, KBVU. T- Hangar or shade hangar. My current hangar arrangement at KHND is coming to an end (sadly)...

You are a rock star!!! Brilliant!

Great day! Flew KHND to KSMO to pick up a rescue Maltipoo and flew him back to KHND via KAPV refueling stop. So glad I signed up. Weather was fantastic as well

I’m happy to share what Inknow about importing US built planes from Canada. I went through this is December and it’s not as daunting and it may seem. Feel free to pm me and we can swap numbers if you would like some advice.

Yes, we did. He advised against taking the downwind runway but I made the decision to take it as PIC.

Thanks Ed - The feedback here has been very helpful. Despite having my PPL since 1988 I don't have thousands of hours and my personal minimums are quite high - I consider myself a conservative pilot. I will most certainly handle future occurrences as Dell recommended!

I struggled with this. I have dual g5s and a g175. I have Icomm radios. Decided to refurbish the Narco Nav 122 that was in the panel. It’s and ILS in the box with vor. GS, marker beacons and radio all in one

Wasn’t scared. Stall warning and the looming end of the runway will wake you up though.

My understanding is that 160HP (Max rpm) is only for 1 minute..... maybe I'm misreading it.

Indeed I did

Actually, when I got the plane I did a couple tailwind TO's and landings with a CFI as part of my transition (at my request). Just hadn't done at almost MGWT. BIG DIFFERENCE.

True that.

Lindberg, I was in no way meaning to be unfair to the controllers at KHND. It's my home base, I fly alot from there and they do a great job - juggling tons of northbound traffic all converging through the "ridge" as well as dealing with keeping people away from the LAS bravo plus all of the...
