Next time your in SoCal, there's a Naugles on Beach Blvd. Its got the original menu. The idea of Naugles brought back nostalgic memories of ditching class in high school to get a burrito. First bite brings you right back - next bite makes you realize that you used to eat some serious crap!

As mentioned above, Jose Cuervo Riserva De La Familia is excellent. If you’re getting ready to make some kind of remark about it being from Cuervo, you just drank too much crap Cuervo Gold in the 80’s. RISERVA IS EXCELLENT. I also really like Dulce Amargura Extra Anejo...

Maybe check with Matt at Waypoint (KRAL)?

Are you planning to step up to something more capable than the M20F in a few years? If not, sounds like a good plan. If you do see yourself wanting more speed and more useful load down the road, then my advice would be to buy your last airplane first. Fixing up two (or more) aircraft can...

Steiney - You've been led astray by fear mongering posts from people who don't know the facts about Bonanzas. Saying that all ruddervators have corrosion is flat out wrong. I have lots of Bonanza owning friends with perfect ruddervators. If you have good ruddervators that are properly...

If you can get on their schedule, my absolute best avionics experiences have been at Ramona Avionics. I've also used AIE at French Valley. They were a pretty solid shop to deal with too. You might want to check with Matt at Waypoint. He's at Riverside.

Tell your "friend" to file a NASA report right away. What kind of TFR? was it a Stadium TFR? Those typically only go up to 3,000 feet AGL. Are they sure they went through and not over? If they didn't have anyone waiting when they landed, then maybe they got lucky and got away with it...

Touché and - cute hill dude.

See that guy to the left - the guy with the huge smile... That's the look on my face when some guy in Texas thinks we have "high hills" :) The highest mountain in the continental US is in SoCal. Lots of Texans think a freeway overpass is a hill.

That same blimp flew over the top of Fullerton this morning at around 9:30. That's some real cross country flying at blimp speeds.

Wise words, well said.

Yes. The Owens is what I'm talking about

I saw at least one comment above that Aterpster doesn't know what he's talking about. If my suspicion is right (based on similar posts on BeechTalk), I'd bet he knows more than most of us and that he has a solid resume of both commercial airline captain and one of the guys who was actively...

We probably fly in the same airspace. Here's a real life example of how I do it when I have nice VFR conditions at my airport (KFUL) but my destination - or the midpoint, is IFR. Last week, I departed Fullerton with VFR flight following, headed to Visalia to drop off family. Conditions at...

The pictures in that link are taken by someone who was late to the party. You can't really look at those and think that you have an idea of what icing looks like. I'm one of (too many) people with stories about icing. I lived - and so did my wife and best friend, but it was a hell of an...

Found this info near the bottom of the page, using the link above. Private Pilot Ground School Lifetime Enrollment $299 $129 I'm helping my nephew get started on his PPL. If anyone has feedback (good or bad) on Gold Seal, I'd much appreciate it.

Is it possible to meet any Quiet Birdmen in the SoCal area?

I just sent you a private message with my phone number. Looking forward to meeting you.

RandyM said it perfectly. You like airplanes You can afford it You have the time Get a plane and enjoy life. You've done all the right things financially and now is the time to enjoy yourself. You don't want to be 10 years older wondering if you've done the right thing. I'm about your...

Who the hell told you "Student" is a bad word and when did you start to care about this stuff?
