Sounds like the "helicopter parenting" of the flight training world. Sure, things can go wrong in life/flight training/driving/etc. Isn't this how we are supposed to learn? My CFIs would usually be at the airport during my X-countires since they were doing local training with other students...

No tire kickers unless you count me before you officially posted to Barnstormers. :D Yours was very well cared for with a very reasonable asking price so I am not surprised it sold so quickly.

Saw that one hit the Grumman mailing list a bit ago and I assumed it would have sold by now. Probably the high time engine but even factoring that in and an adsb update for the 330 that seems like a decent price since it looks well cared for. Bit low on useful load (I've seems multiple in the...

Would also be interested in details. I'm not quite to buying either but for the right one....

It would appear that some PA28-140s don't either.:D

The original Budweiser comercial this is based on is so old its 4:3 Standard Def rather than 16:9 HD. That part made me feel old.

Like their 90s cars, their 90s mowers were better built too. Mine is from 1988 and still running although 1st gear stopped working a few years back. It has new rear tires but original fronts and bag. Every time I take it in for service they tell me the only way to really kill them is to run...

I can understand and respect a subject matter expert who want to get paid for their expertise. Same for those who choose to share. I'm glad to hear a weather form is on the way.

I'd argue there are actually 5: Basic, Basic Plus, Pro, Pro Plus, and Performance Plus They highlight 3 (Basic Plus, Pro Plus, Performance Plus) but allow you to get to the Basic and Pro options under "Build your own plan" I'm not an active flyer so I just let my Basic Plus expire. I...

I've worked at places like this before https://www.forbes.com/sites/brucerogers/2017/06/16/vlad-shmunis-builds-ringcentral-to-disrupt-143-billion-unified-communications-market/#4d46ccd059c2

When I was getting back into the air last year, I found Aviation Adventures professional with well cared for planes. I had major scheduling issues with their Manassas location due to lack of instructor availability. To the point that I put all thoughts of working on my IFR off for the time...

We canceled the TV portion of our Verizon FIOS in July. We kept the land line since it works out less then dropping it. I had an old Series3 Tivo with lifetime service in the closet, so I threw that in the AV rack in place of the FIOS DVR and put a small antenna off my back deck for OTA. Lucky...

Most advice I've gotten leans towards no, but it helped me get a job. I had it listed as an interest, not a qualification. Lead developer at the startup was also a pilot and it helped me to land the interview.

It may matter to only a small group, but the ability to do Amazon streaming in HDR may be enough for me to get one. Only other streaming players to support Amazon HDR are the top model Rokus and they have been getting many complaints...shame since I've had 2 prior Rokus that have been fantastic...

I could have bought the phone outright, but if T-mobile (or ATT) is going to give me a 2 year interest free loan with no pre-payment penalty, why not take it? If there was even a small amount of interest to be paid I wouldn't do it. Then we have my father who has had a 4 (not even a 4s) for...

Another advantage of T-mobile. Your phone lease isn't built into the contract. If you chose to pay by month, your bill drops once the phone is paid for. I paid off my 6 earlier this year, and my monthly dropped by $25. Nothing in the 8/X release is of much interest to me, so I'll hold onto the...

SOL or you need to keep your existing AI as a backup somewhere. And keep the vacuum system if its vac powered and you were otherwise wanting to ditch the vac pump(s)

For an American make, this is likely it. You negotiate a price outside of any factory incentives. You get whatever is available at the time you take delivery. Can be quite a game when incentives can be very variable. Never bought a new car off the lot. Either custom ordered or went searching...

I was there (via car) today with my family. Which plane was yours?

We have an Arlo for our driveway. Has generally worked okay, although it suffers from the problem some have where the night filter gets stuck resulting in the picture being red during the day. It corrects its self periodically. I created an IFTT macro with it plus the Weemo switch for our porch...
