    Fly For Lunch Locations - Nationwide

    Hmmm, I used to go on here but every time I tried it recently it was down, I just assumed it had gone offline and was going to make a replacement, I even tried to contact the admins. I guess there might not be a requirement for this site after all!

    Fly For Lunch Locations - Nationwide

    Hey folks, I am working on a database to be published online of places to fly. For right now I am concentrating on restaurants and eateries, the famous $100 Hamburger. This project has come about after struggling to find new places to fly on the weekends. So what do I need from y'all? Well if...

    How old is old enough. . .

    I took my son for the first time when he was 3 months. It didnt go all that well and we left after only 3 days (We always do the Saturday before opening until the Sunday evening, leaving on the Monday after it ends). We returned the following year when he was one and he had a blast. We had to be...

    First Solo Boo Boo

    Renters insurance with hull liability is less than $200 per year. Seems like it would be foolish to not get it regardless of what the school requires.

    Pirep - Pray Aviation, Kansas

    It seems like PIC comes highly reviewed across every review I have seen. I will give them a call next week and see if we can make something work. I was hesitant to contact them without my own aircraft but perhaps than have some contacts down here.

    Pirep - Pray Aviation, Kansas

    Hmm, interesting information, it certainly makes me wonder if this would be the way forward. I would not be happy to travel all that distance to get messed around with scheduling. To answer some of the other comments.... Unfortunately I live in Rural Louisiana, had I still been living in...

    Pirep - Pray Aviation, Kansas

    As an additional piece of info....I was between Pray and Sportys as they were the ones that best met my schedule plus were responsive to my questions. GATTS was originally my #1 choice, however they are fully booked up until Summer, we have child # 4 due in the summer so I needed to get it...

    Pirep - Pray Aviation, Kansas

    Anybody on here spent any time at Pray Aviation in Augusta, Kansas? I am looking at doing an accelerated Instrument Rating here but have not been able to find much information from others who have been there. From my discussions with the owner I feel very impressed and comfortable to go ahead...

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

    Very bizarre! When I began training 5 years ago I was taught to ride the horn through the entire slow flight sequence! I’m not sure why they decided to change it?

    Leaving left hand pattern to the rightat uncontrolled airport

    I agree with this. My DPE was helpful in identifying things in my flying that my CFI never mentioned.

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

    Guess who passed their PPL Checkride today......ME! It was all very straight forward for the Oral, I had one issue when I got caught out identifying a Airfield with Class E at 1200ft (I said 700) I also said you could not pick up Special VFR at an airfield that has no tower. The ride itself...

    Whos going to Osh?

    Looks like this year will be the first time in many years I will miss going to OSH. A 3month old baby and work being slow means that I flat out can't afford to go this year. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Simple home built?

    Another vote for Sonex, I was very impressed and Ordered a Waiex kit, although soon found out we have a future student pilot on the way, so started working on a bearhawk instead Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Yet another "best" airplane question, but

    I have a similar mission and I'm looking at Stinsons and Fairchilds. A little cooler in my eyes! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    TTx down at West Houston

    I did my night landing practice here when I was a student, nice quiet airport. Not tricky at all and plenty of length. Wonder what happened. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Texas Folks check in

    Im also in Houston, things were getting a little close for comfort for a while, getting better now though. I escaped on a work trip to Louisiana the last few days so I am safe for now!
