I'm confused. How could a pre buy get you a court date? Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

You like the plane. You like the price, why would you not go get the pre buy? If it turns up something unacceptable negotiate or walk. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Your prices are reasonable. Maybe too reasonable. It's $250 for a wash by me. If I found someone to do it at that price I'd never wash my own plane again. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Damnit! (Can I say that on here?) Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

I'll admit some of this stupid click bait ads sucker me into clicking. One slide in and I'm done! But Mama June??? Think they're using the wrong bait on that one. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Are you folks seeing the same INSANE sponsored ads in the web that I am in tapatalk (Android)? WTF could I have clicked on that it thinks this is what I want to read about? (See title). Wait... don't answer that last part Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

I'll be taking the family at the end of the week. Fri-Sun. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Happy to sign. Pwk is 3x closer to me than where I keep the plane at UGN. I chose to go further for $ reasons. I pay <$4 a gallon where in at. Good luck.

A DOT sticker? Is that accurate? I thought it had to be specifically FAA approved. On another note I didn't see this "CARES" device for kids 22-44lbs when I was looking around a year ago. Seems this would've worked well. http://www.faa.gov/passengers/fly_children/ Sent from my XT1080 using...

I started taking mine up when she was 3. Shes 4 now. After transferring the car seat back and forth a couple times I just bought another (lighter) one. Half the time she's asleep before we've left pattern. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

When I bought my hangar the guy left everything behind. Tools, desk, shelves, storage boxes filled with kids toys. He had a bonanza and there was a gas can labeled "gas", one labeled "TKS" and two of these little ones. It was probably a month or two of them sitting there before I read the...

Ok. So I started another thread asking about what happens if someone screws up and busts a TFR. Here is the thread where I admit I screwed up on the same trip. I was flying VFR to a relatively close airport I regularly go to. Checked weather, TFRs, etc. Easy trip. Me: Aiport Traffic...

I"m flying past Gary, IN this past weekend and there is an air show nearby. I'm aware of the TFR so I stay out of it by a few miles. They vector me a bit further. All is good. But then I see another single engine that flies right through the middle of it. Tower: Aircraft 3 miles east of...

It was my first plane @80hr TT in a 172. It makes a great first plane if you have adequate transition training. My insurance required 20 hrs and I'm glad they did. I have about 200hrs on it now. The upside is it is a great handling, quick plane for the money. The downside for me (not being...

I flew in last year on Friday at the end of the week last year and there was no issue with parking. Seemed it was half cleared out by then.

Thanks. I saw aircraft spruce had a 6k lb rig that was about twice the cost of the harbor frieght setup. Based on the recommendations here I should have my new winch from Harbor Freight in a few days. Thanks all.

I'm getting tired of asking for help pushing the plan up the hill into my hangar. It is not a one man job. What winch/setup do you recommend? I'd like to mount it to the floor. Would be awesome if it had a wireless remote, but not necessary? What about a fail safe, to make sure it doesn't...

I called several companies. Some had the # of solo hours before passenger clause. The one I ended up with had that clause but I negotiated just to 20hrs dual period. It went down about $1000 after the first year and 150 hours. If you are shopping for insurance for a viking head over to...

Yep. My insurance required 20 hrs dual. Although I was about 80-90 hrs TT when I got it so I'm glad they did.

Ok... I asked because I was frustrated by the long distances to my hangar but I had an offer in on a home in Brookeridge airpark in Chicago that just got accepted. Woohoo! :). Pics to come once it closes. Anyone want a hangar in Waukegan? :)
