    Weekly Commute: Is It Practical?

    The company may not allow it for continued employment. In any case, his family would care after the lawyers are finished with his estate. I agree with others here, I would check with your employer. Another issue that came up with my company is that the group life insurance, nor accidental...

    IFR Training Question

    I agree and was aware of this prior to signing up. It isn't for real "learning" at all. I just wasn't sure what other material would be helpful in the actual learning process. Thanks for the feedback.

    IFR Training Question

    I am using Sheppard Air for the written exam prep. Put, I was wondering any thoughts on the FAA Instruments Flying Book and Procedures Book vs. a third party IFR book like Rod Machado IFR? Any thoughts?

    Shared calendar

    POA, Basic stuff here, but for those in a partnership, any thoughts on a shared calendar setup you may have used to keep up with plane reservations? I am thinking Google calendar but just wondering about any other ideas. Thanks.

    Co-ownership Scheduling

    This is a good thread at a time I am meeting next week to discuss a purchase with another individual. One of the things on the agenda is the schedule but with two of us I doubt it will be a big deal at all. We are discussing a possible third person which would make it a little more complicated...

    Flight time as compensation/ is it for hire?

    I couldn’t imagine the FAA getting on me about something like this. If flying is that strict that I can’t even fly a friend to a meeting and split my cost, then forget it. I’ll just give it up. It gives me an excuse to fly and I am not being compensated. I guess I will just remain ignorant...

    KMSL Class E Airpsace Question

    So it was about a year ago I was planning to fly to KMSL and due to weather wasn’t able to do so. Planning to try again later this week. This is a class E airspace to the surface and the first time I would have flown into this type airport. I am VFR only. 1) Do I treat this as uncontrolled...

    What is the purpose of the Carb heat

    Number 4 I paid a lot of attention! Thanks. I wasn't expecting anything official here. I am just amazed of there isn't a singular "best practice" for the common single engine planes we all fly. Seems odd to me.

    What is the purpose of the Carb heat

    Carb heat is something that I am very interested and it is something that worries me. I find it even more interesting that there are still, after all the discussions and history, appears to be many different options about it and when to use carb heat. Frankly, scares the hell out me. So, I...

    Roy Halladay's Icon A5 down off of Tampa Coast

    I’ll be honest, I think that too when I hear things like this. But then again, just yesterday we had a fatal car accident in our area and yet I never think I shouldn’t drive. I guess it is just how our mind works.

    What resources do you use to find other pilots to fly with?

    i really thought this was hilarious. Read it to my wife and we had a good laugh this evening. So who all typed that in to see if it was registered?

    Learning More about Weather

    POA, Besides the FAA book on weather, can any of you recommend a resource on weather for the VFR pilot in terms of just having a better understanding of planning, conditions that could change weather - just basic overall better education on the subject - that you might recommend either through...

    Broker for Aircraft Search

    POA, I am starting to get really close on a purchase of a single engine plane. It would be my first. Can anyone offer an opinion on using a broker to help find, research and overall help with the purchase? I realize some of you would never do it or feel the service is worth it, but I am I...

    Rent vs Buy: the missing metric?

    This is exactly right. I own a boat. I don't rent a boat because if I did I would never get to use a boat since I wouldn't want to pay by the day, plus fuel. Sure, it would be cheaper to rent a boat, but who wants to do that! Since I own a boat, I use it more than I would otherwise and the...

    What do you think they will say 50 to 100 years from now about the gas we burned and how much better they will have it?

    New Member Introduction

    I should have done an intro when I got in POA because these tops 8 ideas would have served me well. I can't believe how much time I would have saved with 2 - 6 if I would have had this list! StevieD
