    Issue with checkride

    Mine accepted a check. In fact if you failed the oral he said he would only charge you half. I passed and don’t remember giving him a check until it was all said and done.

    Issue with checkride

    I probably would have walked away if he were 3 hours late, but most definitely if those first few comments came in the first few minutes. Right before I started writing my letter to the fsdo I would have put a stop on the check......

    High CHT C172R - Concerning?

    NA Secrets to good sleep?

    Winter oil weight

    He’s wrong, the molecular structure of fully synthetic and the lead in 100LL do not play nice together. It will not suspend the lead and it will deposit where you do not want it. The 15-50 has some synthetic in it.

    Power outage/shutdown in CA

    Years ago where I used to hunt they would clear a 50 yard path of all brush and trees under lines, we don't do that any longer...
