Hello everyone, I'm going to get started soon in my flight training and am looking for recommendations for an AME in the Tampa area. I've looked at the FAAs website and there is a huge list of available AMEs but for obvious reasons would like to see one that someone has some experience with...

As others have said, many times these remotes are add ons to the fan wiring and can be removed without hurting the functionality of the fan. I just replaced two ceiling fans in our second bedroom and office. They came with remotes but I didn't use them. Luckily my house was installed with three...

I worked at KSC for a few years and was in the department that maintained the PAPIs for the SLF. I had a lot of fun there. The surface was heavily grooved to promote drainage and traction. I'm not sure what it would do to tires but it didn't look friendly. I spent more of my time in the...

I'm a big fan of T-Mobile but they have their limitations. I live in a major city (Tampa) and I generally only travel in the vicinity of major highways or near a fairly large town. This generally keeps me in their service area. For the price, they can't be beat. My wife and I have...

Captain, For future reference, park in Research Park at one of these locations: Knights Landing/Research Park Stops: Stop 1 University Tech Center Stop 2 Florida Institute of Government Stop 3 University Marketing Stop 4 Human Resources Stop 5 University Tower Stop 6 Knights Landing (Winter...

Was posting from my phone and didn't see any airport identifier so I just assumed... You know what they say about assumptions... :D

I would probably never attempt it. :) As my grandmother told the story, it took months of work for my great grandmother to build those relationships with the animals and I'm not sure that's a good idea anyways. I don't like feeding them just because I don't want them to become dependent on it.

I've heard stories from my grandmother about my great grandmother hand feeding coons, squirrels, and chipmunks...said that each of them would take turns, amazing that animals will learn and adapt to things like that.

I believe the post was talking about parallel runways...

I don't have my PPL yet but I would like to be involved if at all possible. I'm currently studying while saving some cash to pay for lessons and trying to get involved as much as possible. CTLSMD, I live in Brandon. Any chance I could tag along with you for this?

Just watched the first episode and it's great! Are there any other shows like this?

I would love to do this but I'm in the Tampa, FL area. That being said, anyone in the Tampa area that wants someone in the right seat, let me know. I'm not a pilot (yet), just a very interested passenger.

Ron. That is basically what I am trying to do...use an actual plotter on a paper chart to make measurements and verify course directions. Brad: I understand. Some others have made some great suggestions about just asking the next time I'm at the airport. The reason I haven't just purchased...

I'll be at the airport later this month hopefully for a flight I bought at a charity auction so I'll poke around then. Thanks for the help!

I like that idea but would that not be a little awkward?

Steve, Thanks for the link. I'm aware of Sky Vector and it's a great site! I'm concerned with preparing myself for the training I'll likely receive as a part of flight training and I doubt Sky Vector is that method. Good site to keep bookmarked for future use though.

Thank you... I've been lurking for a long time... This was a post that is in an area that I had a lot of questions over the last year so hopefully I can help. :yes:

Hello everyone, I'm currently saving up funds to start my PPL training and during this time I've been studying as much as I can. I'm at the point where I am scoring >90% on every practice knowledge exam and I'd like to start doing some practical practice flight planning. I was wondering...

My wife an I were in this exact situation about a year and a half ago. Exactly 12 months after we purchased our SUV, she was rear ended. Cause about $6,500 in damage. I contacted the other driver's insurance about diminished value. Their initial offer was $250 plus $100 for "our...
