    Impossible turn fun...

    Practiced the impossible turn at altitude with my instructor many times. I know the altitude in different situations and how I would execute a return to runway. I think everyone should know that number and how to do it for the plane they fly. Also, practice, practice, practice.

    Stock Market thoughts (continued - no politics please!)

    I wasn't talking about the sick, crippled or the mistreated by the system, when I made my statement there aren't very many POOR I am relating it to the 30+% of my business that are on welfare but live like they are middle class.

    I don't think there are many POOR people in America anymore or at least what I consider POOR. When people that don't work and are on welfare drive nice cars have nice cloths and eat more than they should, I wouldn't say they are poor. I see this daily in my line of work.

    The problem you mentioned in the second paragraph about people living outside there means is easily corrected, Don’t spend money you don’t have, work harder or get a better job/education. No one is entitled to a better or certain lifestyle, only the one they earn and can afford. The country...

    So, student pilots.. Who are we and where do we stand?

    I was in the same situation as you, family, business, etc. Wish I would have never stopped. Hopefully you will enjoy your ticket as much as I have.

    Somethings take more time than other due to the complexity, but there is always the FDA’s arduous red tape to go through.. Wait until we get the quick test available, you will see the number of cases go up tremendously if not exponentially. The only Americans killed by this to date were from a...

    Not everyone will contract it. Would suck to live in a large crowded city though. If bad enough they could have a vaccine in a few months, I believe Israel is testing a promising vaccine already.

    Nearly half of Americans don't want a self-driving car

    A local Closed B52 base has a large double blacked out fenced off area where they test self driving cars, rumored google. I like flying the pattern there ever now and again.
