    Yeah Baby.

    nope, there won't be any rest for me as I'm going straight into the IR portion. I'm gonna use the valuable resource which is my mother, who used to be a CFII as my safety pilot. I am gonna combine my cross country time with the actual or simulated time I need, this way I kill 2 birds with one...

    Well to update my exploits as a student pilot. I have been signed off for my check ride on this coming Sunday 4/9/17. I know I can fly the airplane, I kind-of thrive on stress or at least deal with it well from being a crane operator and some of the high stress jobs I have done as one. So why...

    Aircraft ownership.

    I don't think your aircraft will be in my allowable budget of below 40k. Also I need to work some pee hour rates to see how that will work in my plan.

    Aircraft ownership.

    I am going to do both CSEL and CMEL. even though I will be building time and xcountry time speed is not a real big concern but I would like to go faster that half the speed of smell. LMAO. Something to take a lunch trip from Orlando to maybe New Orleans without having to leave the day before.

    Aircraft ownership.

    Like yesterday. Well as quickly as money allows and as much free time I have. I am only now able to fly one day a week due to work constraints.

I will use it for my instrument ,and commercial and also to build supplemental time to the ATP, along with the proverbial $100.00 hamburger ,exploration. I have been wondering about some real world numbers of an Arrow...

    Another alleged drunk airline pilot

    Im sorry, I just can't understand why someone would do this. Maybe I'm living in a dream world or something, but I just can't fathom someone who puts years of work and 10's of thousands of dollars in his or her career and just ****es it away just like that. I guess maybe I don't understand the...

    Diesel Rough Idle?

    It sounds like to me its sucking air or like Denverpilot has said a lift pump going bad. I would also drain the filter sump, then add a quart of trans fluid to the fuel tank on the next fill up, just to clean the fuel system. Ok i know yall are saying trans fluid in the fuel ????? , yes it does...
