    Is it normal to still have occasional bad landings as a private pilot?

    Really? If that's true, then there's hope for me! Sent from my SM-A515U using Tapatalk

    Not my pic. No news story. Not sharing particulars but it looks like lessons might be learned

    In my experience as a student, it is much more challenging to fly a Cub than it is to fly a C150. The 150 makes me feel like a pilot. The Cub sets me on my heels and stubs my toes every time I fly it. Sent from my SM-A515U using Tapatalk

    Do you feel like you keep getting smarter?

    1. Learned to shut up when smart people are talking. Also learned how to milk a cow, how to refill printer cartridges and soloed a tailwheel airplane. So smarter, maybe. But perhaps the challenge should be: how much can we stretch our brain cells? Sent from my SM-A515U using Tapatalk

    DryCreek: "Just checking the PSI website last night, it looks like I will be coughing up $175. At least that was my interpretation. If it is truly $119, that would make me happier. I hear that there is a minor discount through AOPA. And, AOPA seems to be offering a free six-month membership...

    Only two pieces of advice: 1. Listen to experienced pilots. 2. Learn from experienced pilots. Don't be like me. I came into aviation like a newborn to kindergarten. Awed at this amazing new world with a new language that I knew nothing of. No experience and no mentors. The only aviation...

    the "not worthy of it's own thread" thread

    No joke. The funniest thing is that I get so annoyed every time it plays, I still don't know what Google Fi is.

    I paid $119 online through the website when I set up my test appointment. All those tools may be a bit much...I recommend bringing what you use and forget the rest. Bring whatever gives you peace of mind. Push pins are great! At my testing center they gave me a supplement with a plastic...

    How do we (you) afford to fly?

    I afford flying by NOT doing this. I work a day job and run a hobby farm evenings and weekends. So naturally, I can't go on vacation which saves a lot of money. Made the mistake of jumping into aviation head first without saving up. Worst and best thing I ever did!

    I took my ppl written in July at a PSI center. It was a very small building. The testing "booths" are little cubicles big enough to fit a large man[emoji846] and an 18-20" computer monitor. I didn't use the ASA test prep site, so not sure how navigation compares. The test is quite straight...

    100th airport

    That's such a neat goal! I think I'll steal it from ya. Which one/ones are your favorites? Edit: I think I'll change that to every charted paved and unpaved airstrip in WA.

    Thanksgiving Plans

    My parents are hosting this year. In my family we go big. The main feature on our table will be the 24 lb roast turkey. Feels quite small, actually. One year, our largest homegrown turkey dressed out at 48 lbs. And then pie. Pumpkin, dutch apple, coconut cream, lemon meringue, banana cream...

    Not sure how this happened to me...

    Congratulations, @SkyChaser and @2-Bit Speed!!! Just skimmed this thread and saw your story. SkyChaser, just realized we're the same age. Are you a new pilot? [emoji846] Wishing blessings to you both on your new life together! Sent from my SM-A515U using Tapatalk

    [NA] As pilots, what are we switching to as we move away from cargo shorts and New Balance?

    Finally! Someone got it right. Just proves your clothes don't make you a pilot.;) Sent from my SM-A515U using Tapatalk

    Books that would have/would have changed your aviation experience

    I believe that one is through AOPA. They offer a free 6 month subscription to Flight Training magazine with a student membership(which is also free for the first 6 months).
