I stayed away from heli ever since I read about an RC heli pilot being decapitated years ago. :eek:

I myself been looking at Horizon's Cessna 150... I hate you! :D

I had Mooney IFR pilot friend who gave me discovery-flight with many hours... who couldn’t fly RC planes/drones at all. He said it was harder then flying full-scale?

Hey folks, How many of you transitioned from flying RC planes to full-scales? My first Horizon Hobby Apprentice crashed on my second flight; I learned to repair and flew multiple planes since. Got into FPV drone racing which taught me about electronics and HAM frequencies. I remember one day a...

they need to pry(the yoke) off my dead hands...

Why are certain airspace called "Indian country"?

Alas.... all of my passengers so far are non-pilots :(

Okay, long as I know this is typical experience as pilot. Guess I'll just enjoy my 360 camera video afterwards. :rolleyes: An example from yesterday's flight. I didn't notice these "islands" off Long Beach, Californa before (skip to 36min mark). Does anyone know what they are?

I didn't say i'm having trouble being ahead of airplane. Only that I can't enjoy the view as I would a passenger. It might be that I'm OVERLY cautious things that can go wrong and I'm bit paranoid and constantly scanning, viewing outside traffic, etc. Guess what I just realized is that I'm not...

Hey folks, Not sure if this common but I'll put it out there. When flying some scenic (or not) places; I can't enjoy any views outside cause I'm busy with controls, looking for traffic, or comm. My passenger(if any) does. Only when I review my flight video after, do I see what I missed. Am I...

My old stock radio made it difficult to understand clearly what controller said. What I did catch was traffic at 2 o'clock and turn left to avoid.

Hey folks, Yesterday SoCal Approach asked me to divert left to avoid plane. Question; do I keep turning left or maintain a 15-30deg left course? And how long should I maintain this course before return to destination? Do I need ask resume to destination?

Hey folks, How many of you train with NORDO planes?

my other hobby is riding unicycle... it’s not hard...really! :)

Been looking for someone with scale to get empty weight on my C150. Found a pilot in my airport to do it for buying lunch. I love the aviation community; such helpful folks! Not sure why my right-side is 25 lbs heavier? :rolleyes: Weight of plane (with 5 1/4 oil) and all other items out and...

Hey folks, Been rainy in my airport, my plane is covered up on tie-down. Ready to go up for pattern works and I find bunch of ants inside the plane! How do you rid of them?

Yes, ADS-B is great. But why did other pilot turn-left into me? Aren't we suppose to turn right to avoid?

Probably did but wasn't looking at Foreflight at that point. It did show yellow prior; after that I was too focused on looking outside for bogie at 12.
