    Tach to Hobbs conversion for logging

    I'm all for logging Hobbs. OP said they start logging when they close the door. Those are not the same in my opinion.

    Tach to Hobbs conversion for logging

    The door is part of the airplane and when I unlock and open that handle, it starts moving. Then just for good measure I run the door up again with the electric motor so it's moving under it's own power. Then I close the door up and head in to the FBO for 2 hours. I'm logging from when that...

    Tach to Hobbs conversion for logging

    Then you might as well log it then. I just set the brake and never stop logging time. Out, Off, On, In is a method that professionals typically use. Not the random piston single fella that flings the chocks across the ramp when there isn't a line guy to help out.

    It was said in jest. If were going to make up our own definitions of what's flight time. I'm going to start logging when I pour my first cup in the morning. Because I need a cup of coffee to fly it's technically preparing for flight.

    Regardless of you being wrong, you still don't log flight time until the aircraft moves under its own power for the purpose of flight. That's the FAAs definition not mine.

    My statement, "No but he said he start logging time when he closes the door." His statement " Out - door closed, ready to start engine Off - wheels up (weight off wheels) On - wheels down In - Engine shut down" I reiterate "Out - door closed, ready to start engine" So, pretty much exactly...

    Tach to Hobbs conversion for logging

    Out is out of the blocks. That's it. It's not starting engines. It's not combing your mustache. It's pretty clear. I just decided to start logging when I close the door on my house. I'm headed to the airport to fly so it all counts on according to the logic.

    No but he said he start logging time when he closes the door. So that means I'm logging "flight time" when I'm buckling up, getting a clearance, checking the lav or anything that's not "flight".

    Your Out and In are the goofiest thing I've ever read. You log time when you're buckling your belt and stuff? Nothing in the regulations says that logable time. Out and in refers to the out of the chocks to in to the chocks.

    Darren Pleasance replacing Mark Baker Jan 1.

    Since presidents (except POA presidents) at all levels tend to be crooks, this seems like a perfect fit.

    do you swipe to type? (NA numbnutz)

    This is probably true. But it wouldn't take long to ask your great grand children to help you turn that sound off.

    do you swipe to type? (NA numbnutz)

    Just don't be one of those old dudes sitting in public tapping the phone with 1 finger and leave the noise on when you press a key. What in the world would make anyone want to hear the click sound when typing on a digital keypad ?

    Vehicle Wraps [NA]

    I had a great wrapped professionally in the past. A black car will be cheaper to wrap. Then you have to decide if you want the jambs done as well. I think i paid 3k for the job and it was Avery Denison product. Held up really well and I would do it again in a heart beat.

    Plane crash on FL freeway

    Anyone else seen the 604 cockpit demo of the right seat pilot reaching below the throttles to arm the T/Rs or what ever the switch is. At the same time the pilot in the left seat is pulling back to idle. The safeties engage on the right pilots forearm and allows the throttles to clear the...

    Pellet grill

    My wife bought me a masterbuilt for my birthday last year. I had never heard of the product before. She did her research and I'm very grateful for that. Best cooking experience I've had and all my pellet grill buddies want to use my rig because it tastes superior. I could never use anything...

    Apple To Reportedly Launch An Unnamed Foldable Device As Early As 2026 To Replace The iPad mini

    I've had 3 different Samsung devices that fold. Including both 1st generations of the flip and the fold. I couldn't see the crease on any of them as the user. From the side the crease is very apparent but straight on its invisible. It is a superior form factor that's why Apple will...
