Seems pretty complicated. I'll stick with the US where it's nice and easy, controlled by the faa. Lol

@AggieMike88. Non-aviation related... my BIL is a LEO and has always told me NEVER blow. It's easier to fight/reduce without blowing. Unfortunately I did blow over 20 years ago. No issues since and the FAA didn't have an issue with it being a one time event so far in the past so far in the...

Not an upgrade so I have no experience with the X but I love the a20s. Looking for a set for the wife...

Hey. Great pics! Fellow Chicago POA'r here. I happen to be in Vienna (1st district) for the rest of the week if you want to greifen ein bier. I was just wondering today what the rules on GA-type planes are here because I hadn't seen or heard one in the air...

That is nice! Someday... I'll keep dreaming until then.

A recent thread on hangar costs got me thinking again about where I keep my plane. There is an airport 11 miles away that charges $500 for a T hangar. I, instead opted to go to an airport 33 miles away (~40 min) to save a few hundred a month, although I suspect I'm flying a little less than I...

Figured it couldn't hurt to ask so I sent an email to flightaware asking if something changed. Looks like something did in January in the FAA data they are receiving regarding VFR flights; May 9, 7:14 AM Hello, Thank you for contacting FlightAware. Overall, we officially do not support...

Mine used to show up most of the time but the last one that showed up for me is November last year. I was also wondering why my last 10+ flights haven't shown up.

I'm right outside Chicago and was going to get a detail for my wife's b-day. There are two in my neighborhood. One was $200 and the other was $250. She got something else...

And the AME has shown he is willing to go out of his way to stir trouble for the OP because he didn't like him going to another AME. What would he be willing to do if he saw his name on a message board? Maybe nothing, maybe sue. Who knows... But if it were me I would just take my shiny new...

Ha. I have heard the wooden wonder as well for mine. My wife thought "Ruthgar" was a good Viking sounding name... So it stuck. Now our little one points up at any plane and tells us it's Ruthgar! :)

Concur on Chase. I find them easy to deal with. I have the freedom card. 1% cash on everything and 5% quarterly deals (gas, home improvement, restaurants, etc.). And when it does get blocked I get an instant text to accept charges and that unlocks it. When I was looking to switch I did a...

Same here. I had one hell of a tail wind in my 500nm trip heading NW here in the Midwest today. Made my best time yet.

Yes. These are good recommendations. Thank you.

Hmm... Find a random airport would be interesting. I'd like to see that. The criteria will change from day to day. I'll look for a restaurant, a fly-in, somewhere near an interesting town I can head into, hiking, etc. So the map lets me center on my location and see a radius and make...

I made it to OZS so could make it within a few hundred miles. My brother will be tagging along and he'll be a first timer in a small plane.

I have. I found the map much easier. If I am looking for something within a few hours (500+/- miles) that gives me about 20 pages of responses. Thanks for the suggestion on social flight. I'll check it out.

I used to like funplacestofly.com when I was looking for day trips within a few hours. There was a link called "the big map" that I could use to find recommendations on places to go. Looks like the info is all there but I can only search state by state now if I want to see it on a map? What do...

That is their name and they are open as of a couple weeks ago when I talked to them. They were very helpful over the phone and accommodating to my request to come in late but weather happened and I didn't make it. So other than several local references and a couple phone calls I haven't...
