If I'd have caught some of your posts above between working earlier in the week, I'd have made a recommendation or two in OK - and have bought you all a meal and/or drinks! You still in Tulsa, or did you put in at Clinton? EDIT - I assume you hit Clinton before Tulsa. Nevermind. Still - sorry I...

If that's what's supposed to carry through tomorrow, I'm certainly glad I'm not attempting it, either! Happy to let the pros do it for me!

Either way, he could be properly grounded.

Still haven't heard back from the local joint and the more I dig into the projected weather models, the more it looks like driving or flying commercial is the way to go. I went ahead and booked airline tickets. I appreciate the help and feedback from you folks!

Good point here. Might need to seriously consider. It was more than that a couple of days ago, which is surprising.

I hadn't even thought of the Tulsa outfits (I'm an OKC native, so guess I was prejudiced/had my blinders on). I'll look into that. I know HSD isn't doing overnight rentals with their fleet, as they book them pretty solid to not even need to do that. I understand the outfit here at SWO is under...

I appreciate the thoughts you offered. I'm willing to drive if weather and such aren't looking favorable as we approach "go time," but just trying to avoid it, if possible. I don't want to run afoul of FAA in any manner - you bring up a good point there. As for the rest - based at KSWO...

Congratulations!

Thanks to you both. I'll certainly update further if things don't pan out on last potential rental option here.

This is a VERY long shot (and quite beggarly), but I'm looking for any help/tips my fellow OK (or nearby) pilots might be able offer. My fiancee's nephew passed away last week and a memorial service for him will be held in Denver next Monday; family has requested we arrive on Saturday and stay...

No, it isn't. AOPA designed the course, but you don't have to be a member of AOPA to take it. You just have to register your email on the test site, for progress tracking (i.e. if you have to quit taking the test for some reason, you can come back and start right back here you left off).

You sound similar me. I'm low-time as well, and I don't get to fly as much as I'd like. Because of the spans of time that pass (usually more than a month or two) in between flights, I almost always grab a CFI to join me on those flights, just for extra safety while any "rust" gets knocked off...

Very nice! Looks like it definitely took some good coordination on your part!

Concert is at the {Insert company name here} Pavilion at the Fair Park. I managed to Uber once for a concert at the American Airlines Center with no hassle, but the last time I did it for a concert at the Pavilion, it was a nightmare. Thank you for the tip! I'll do so.

I would Uber, if we weren't attending a concert that night. I'd rather not mess with finding an Uber after that, as I had a nightmarish experience doing so on a previous visit.

I've seen and been part of some threads recommending Ambassador Jet Center at RBD, noting they can handle car rentals for you. As I'm planning an overnight stay there next month, is it better (financially or otherwise) to ask the FBO to handle auto rental, or should I just contact a rental...

I got some hearty laughs out of this one! Well done!

Even if you do find a decent one at Braum's, good luck with them getting your order correct the first time. Braum's is consistently the worst at that, bar none. It's a well-known epidemic in these parts and nothing seems to ever be done to rectify the problem. You would think more places would...

Not much info as of yet, but happened just inside OKC metro area. RIP, fellow aviatior. http://m.news9.com/story.aspx?story=34992633&catId=112032 http://kfor.com/2017/03/24/emergency-crews-headed-to-reported-plane-crash-near-mustang/
