    The Rut

    I have a similar story, earned my cert. in 2014 and flew a good bit till 2016, then almost nothing since. I met with my instructor last Thursday, I am committed to get current then I’ll see where it goes. I think I want to buy a safe, flyable, but a project airplane. I love to “fix” things. (Yes...

    Show Me Your Hangar Floor Tail Anchor

    I don’t have a hangar, but I think if I needed to do what you’re doing I would fill a 5 gallon bucket with cement and put an I bolt in it.

    Single Mom focused on Piloting

    You will find a variety of experiences here about training. I had a friend who was a PP, I asked him who his instructor was, got the number and called him up. He set me up with the FBO to rent an airplane. After a few lessons I was hooked. I was one of this who paid in advance to get a better...

    I think I really messed up. Please Help

    It is in my opinion, if it recurs, it isn’t PRNC therefore you would report again. It’s a technicality, to the letter of the reg, yes it’s a violation, but in the real world once you confess you don’t have to keep confessing unless something changes.

    I think I really messed up. Please Help

    Ok, I’m gonna try again to explain. The point was that the FAA reporting process is onerous. For instance, I have some stenosis in my neck, I had a bout with numbness in my fingers. I reported it and all is good. Now, I have to KEEP reporting it even though I already did and was given a thumbs...

    I think I would say something along the lines of “ I mistakenly assumed that after I was initially issued that I didn’t need to report, therefore I incorrectly checked no, I now understand how to correctly report”

    Ferry pilots

    So, two pilots fly commercial to say, Pittsburg. One pilot pays his own way, the other has his flight paid for. These two pilots drive to say, Maryland and fly an airplane back to say, Alabama. This first pilot pays for the fuel, the second pilot gets paid a couple hundred dollars. The first...

    New and Don’t know what to do.

    What you are looking for is a ferry pilot. Do you have an instructor lined up? I did a ferry trip with my instructor from Maryland to Alabama, it was an invaluable experience. If I were you I would try to find a CFI locally who would be willing to fly it back. Take a commercial flight over, and...
