I just returned a $2400.00 Dell XPS Laptop I bought to run Lightroom from Bestbuy with Win 10. It worked great(crazy fast) for 4 days then it did a update that added a windows live password (I dont have or want windows live).The friendly East Indian Tech support rep I got to know for 2 hours...

Awesome I'm jealous.

Quad 37 MM AA GUNS SHOOTING TRACERS AT THOSE BOYS! How many 20 year olds could handle that today?

Because their stuck in their safe space looking for pokemans instead of learning about the real world . Sad!

I got a cool trick from the guy at the testing office for remembering vfr requirements in class E. Imagine 3 152's flying under 10,000. 3sm vis 1k ft above 500 ft below 2000ft flat Then 5 F111's flyin over 10k feet for 5sm vis 1k ft above 1k feet below 1sm flat.

"Reminds me of Henry Blake on MASH. Everything is fine until after lunch and then you start this hundred hours stuff. Why can't the Army tell time like everybody else." haha thats funny! I reallydont carewhat time it is in Greenwhich Londonbut I have to know to subtract 6 hours from their...

So I think I can pass my ground school exam as I have been getting high 80's on the practice quizzes but I would like to get better. I miss mainly airspace questions and the surface to 700 ft and 1200ft in the different classes just doesnt seem to stick. The weather questions on the ADDS Metar...

Very nice plane and should perform nicely with that 180hp conversion. Any idea on the cost to have that done? I hope to be where your at someday.

My medical won't be complete until November so I still can't solo. My CFI signed me off to take my written and I am going to do that next week to get it out of the way. Once I get my medical I should be able to solo that day and start getting a bunch of hours in to get finished up.

I had the only radio button and still a little shaky on some terminology and we had a few comments about the plane from other pilots over the radio that I had to respond to. Couple of Nice Coupes and one guy in a slick looking twin engine said "he hopes he can climb out of the way if were doing...

Your back on the ground safe so you made the right decisions. Thanks for the write up definitely some things I will remember when I finally solo.

The Aircoupe was cool. I felt like a P51 Mustang Pilot looking for some Kamikaze pilots to shoot down. I had a smile on my face the whole time the most FUN I have had flying yet.

Been there and done that except I was able to land it on the second touch down. Those Cessna's must have some pretty stout running gear I thought I hit pretty hard and the CFI said that was nothing, The Kitfox experience was kind of a bust. The owner wasn't there so I got a younger CFI who...

Had my weekly lesson today(flying once a week sucks) with my regular CFI and flew to a little 2k foot strip and did about 12 landings and T&G's. I am great at taking off but the landing is where things start getting a little dicey lol. Also, I pulled the mixture out instead of the carb heat once...

Congratulations. I am on a similar journey with a medical issue and hope to be where you are at by December.

I wish I could go the expeditious route but the FAA rules didn't allow it so I am adjusting and just having a good time until December. I am glad in a way that it happened because I never would have made the decision to fly different planes with different instructors otherwise. I think in the...

Well I have finally started my journey to try and get my PPL. I have always wanted to fly ever since a cropduster pilot took me flying a couple of times one summer when I was 8 years old. Now 34 years later the time, money, and family commitments have finally converged into the perfect storm to...

This is what I find frustrating due to the FAA STC process the version with a FAA sticker costs $3500 compared to the one without it at $2000.00. Although even at 4k installed, which is what I got quoted from a local shop, it seems like a good upgrade. Especially if you already need a mag...

My 14 year old fuel injected car died one time after 20k hours of use with very little maintenance so I dont want my plane to be fuel injected. Lol. With that thinking the world would still be riding in horse drawn carriages.
