Now I’m second guessing camping in Vintage. I think I’ll still stick with that plan for my first time, I may try the N40 next year. Planning on arriving early on Saturday.

I couldn’t even finish the video. I was cringing listening to the “helper” cirrus pilot.

Thanks for the input. I’ve been watching lots of YT videos, watched the Eaa webinar, and have practiced in X-Plane with google maps satellite imagery. I’ll ramp up my prep and it seems like the whole process is actually very straight forward if you already know what to expect.

I just got my paper copy booklet in the mail. I’m getting excited for my first OSH!

Go fly! Some of my favorite flying was in a da20. The stick will take you all of 1 minute to transition to. The slipperier airframe may take a bit more if you are used to cessnas like I was.

Will he be at osh this year?

Ok I just sent it out to those that messaged me, if I missed you then please send another message.

I've got a file from 2018. Send me your e-mail address in a private message and I'll e-mail it to you.

Interesting... at my home airport there is an RCO frequency for Knoxville clearance delivery but the phone number posted goes to Atlanta clearance delivery. I’ll have to call the next time I file out of there.

No answers but I’m a bit curious as to the process here too...

https://www.knoxnews.com/story/news/loc ... 495630001/ The 62-year-old pilot, who is uninjured and was the only person on board, had flown out of Skyranch Airport in Knoxville before his engine failed just shy of Island Home Airport. The pilot was flying a Flightstar ultralight plane. It is...

Don’t have any engine advice but I’d love to hear more details about this event. I’m really glad you made it back on the ground safely!!!

I’m not surprised. Many students go through their training and spend all the time with a CFI instead of a safety Pilot. This is certainly not a bad idea. Knowing safety pilot requirements isn’t important unless you will be acting as or using a safety pilot. That being said I like using a...

Thanks for the heads up! I just got logged in after signing up earlier. It’ll be my first time flying in.

Agreed. X-Plane relies more on the cpu than gpu than any other game I’m aware of. I’ve got my i5-8600k overclocked to 5Ghz and it’s matched fairly well with a 1070ti with a slight overclock. That level of hardware isn’t needed unless you are venturing into VR.

I’ll be waiting for when I can get my lunch delivered to the office by drone!

Is that a goal zero Sherpa 50 you were charging? Those look nice although the nomad panels seems a bit pricy. Your custom solution looks pretty good. Do you have any details on the solar panels you have there?

Ok. I just looked and found a usb charger for my camera batteries which I’m excited about. I’ve already got a small solar panel and 2 small power packs so I should be good there. I’ll plan on hitting up one of the charge stations if I need it but I’m guessing the laptop battery may even last...

My current thinking is not to do this, but I’m curious what everyone thinks about it and if there are any regs. I’ve got a portable jump starter that has a 12V 17Ah lead acid battery. I was thinking it would be nice to have this and an inverter at OSH for a few of my electronics that need AC...

I’d get the fastest cpu for the price. Currently X-Plane is CPU limited for most people as it’s highly dependent on single core speed. They are porting over to Vulcan to make better use of multi cores but no one really knows when that will happen.
