Hiking: Red Rock Canyon, turtleheads peak trail. 2000 ft elevation gain. One will want to die on the way up but will love the view once finally up there. 11 miles round trip fm the entrance. About 5 from the closest trailhead. Also hiking: take the trail from the Lake Mead visitors center to...

LOL. I have come very close to doing that before. Also, I have been guilty of driving on I70 and upon seeing the denver city lights, wondering what the altitude was and looking down to see if I could find an altimeter in my car. Derp.

Okay, yeah I shouldn't be surprised, unfortunate as it is. Thanks for the reality check!

Thanks for the suggestions... That right there would pretty much kill my interest, as in demand as the skills set is... More up my line of interest would be the mobile application development, possibly web development also. One thing is that if I continue my existing business for any...

I wanted to get some advice from those here, as I know quite a few of you are in IT related careers. Prior to working 15 years in health care, I was going to school for computer programming. The short story is, I took an EMT course and managed to get myself off track. :wink2: Fast forward...

Congrats!

Here ya go!

Agreed, but my focus in strictly on rentals. Ownership is a very unlikely option for me.

I have access to a number of different rentals, ranging from $70 - $145 hour at one airport, plus a second airport with many more that range from $99-150+. I have the fortunate situation of not having to worry about having an aircraft to fly in most cases. The bigger issue for me is...

Good year for me, also: - Added about 150 hours to my logbook (255 TT now) - Complex endorsement - High performance endorsement - Checkouts in C152, C172RG, C182Q, C182RG, PA-28, PA-28R-201, DA20, DA40 - 22 XC flights - mountain checkout - instrument rating - survived flying solo in...

Not even close. Oh well. I'm flying a 182RG back to MN in a couple weeks, so I'll get my fix then. The school has it on special for only $129/hr this month; I was all over it.

Thanks for the input everyone. I am going to follow the advise I've received and pass on this one. It very well may be that this isn't a bad deal, and the seller appears to be good to work with. It is not really a good choice for a first aircraft, and the costs of trying to work things out from...

Thanks. I thought about that question. About 80% of my flying is solo XC in VMC flying to lower altitudes. The ideal plane for me would be a 182RG, but the extra cost to get that capability isn't needed for the average flight that I do. I fly IFR but not really IMC. I want the ability to...

Agreed. I'm aware it is a higher time engine. My thought is that there are many, many examples of engines going well past TBO. Additionally, if the engine did require an overhaul I'm likely going to get a mid-time engine and swap them out. This plane is just one possibility. There's a...

I hadn't posted anything since I was just looking for general advise on the buying process. That said, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to post some other details: PA-28-160 3350 TT 1824 SMOH Annual expired 5/31/2013 http://www.barnstormers.com/listing_images.php?id=783298

Sounds good. It is a PA-28-160 at KORG.

Thanks. That is the next thing, he gave me the phone number of his A&P. I've read that is not a good idea, so I'm going to look for others. It is based out of a fairly small airport, so I'm concerned options may be limited...
