Didn't go FBO, just went to motel after I landed. Guy Joseph greeted me and fixed my landing light for free (it was unplugged)! :D My plan is to leave at 7am on this route following close to the Highway 10. In case of emergency, I can land on the highway. :rolleyes: KPEQ KVHN KDNA KLSB It...

Hey folks, I made it Pesco, TX today after waiting for wind gust to die down at Abilene, TX. There was much turbulence at 4500 but it improved further west I got. Feeling a bit tired today. Someone asked if I'd fly at night; not planning since I'm not familiar with terrain. Thanks again folks...

I see you have a Mooney, would you fly in these conditions?

Just saw a Mooney take off in this wind. Guess the extra power makes winds non-issue? Also see few military Blackhawks readying for takeoff.

Hey folks, Seems Texas wants to keep me bit longer. KABI - Abilene winds 24G34 :eek: Thought of taking off and ride out the winds until it dies down 30min west (getthereitis is REAL)... then i called pilot friend (whom I meet this trip). He advised me not to fly. I'll take his advice...

Hey folks! As some of you saw I made it out this afternoon from F00 to KABI Abilene, TX. Had bit hard time starting in below freezing temp; I had to prime several times. Was hoping to landing before night but I did landing KABI in darkness; tower was helpful giving me vectors to runway 17R. :)...

You're right, it's starting to clear. I'm gonna bring out the 150 out the hangar and load up to get ready! :)

Looking at METAR here F00 shows: OVC017 That's below my personal minimum so, gonna wait and see. Meanwhile, filling in the mud so I can slid my 150 out when time comes. https://imgur.com/5mJuiIf https://imgur.com/bIgcrjA

It's snowing down here, I saw what looks like ice on my 150 this morning. :eek: So yes, i'll be staying put here FBO another day. https://imgur.com/bF9GcM1 I did get sleeping bag from Walmart. Saw this on my plane this morning, is this clear ice or rime ice?

Hey folks! I just returned to my motel in Bonham, TX after staying all daying in my 150 and tie-up inside T-hangar from the winds. https://imgur.com/izksYMd Aslo, here's 360 video from M77 when I took off Tuesday: Dennis and his son Zack asked the FBO manager to let me put my 150 under it...

Hey folks, Here's photo of my new bird... I think it's worth it to fly cross-country from MO to CA for her. :) https://imgur.com/jsULlyG

Hey folks, Well, it's marginal VFR condition with wind and low ceilings here in F00 and forecast for IMC next few days...so guess I'm stuck here FBO until it clears. I didn't hear bango music but I did listen to lots of country music. My Nav lights is mandatory to be on for ADS-B; so yes I...

Hey folks, I bought a C150M and can't figure out what this is for? https://imgur.com/NLuIJNs

Hey folks, I have C150, but seller only gave me single key that opens door and ignition. Where can I get copy of key? Will any locksmith work? Homedepot? Also, he said I should get Medeco key locks for the ignition? Anyone have experience with it?

Buy a Cessna 150 then fly cross-county from MO to CA (like I'm currently doing). :eek:

N63132 The AP installed the tailBeacon but I couldn't see it on FlightAware?

Hey folks, I got lucky and filled up with AVgas from another pilot at the airport this morning. There was some really nice folks here in AK that gave me ride and got me up the air. The headwinds still heavy but i'm aware now. I got as far west to Jones Field airport (F00) but grounded due to...

EXACTLY, what I felt tonight. I won't EVER forget this experience.

I nearly got info fuel starvation today. Flying cross-county on a new plane, with crazy headwinds and running near max RPM used more fuel then I calculated. By time I realized the fuel situation (quarter-tank, and less then quarter on other!) I was middle of nowhere. I thought of going...
