Tried the DCs in the plane I rent. Tried a couple on ANR and non-ANR sets from my CFI. Looked very closely at the Clarity Aloft, but I have experience with in ear speakers from hearing aids. Ended up with the Halos. I am low time, but I would not consider anything else. If you can stand to...

There may be a lot of crossover, but many people with that coveted MBA in front of their name have a very closed mind when it comes to degree titles. I got very lucky when I was working on my BS in Computer Engineering that my Dean scheduled a meeting with me out of the blue one day. He talked...

Any flashlight and a little snip off a gel sheet used in stage lightning will allow you to adjust the color. I have 4 or 5 little lights I picked up at Walmart for $1 each with a pinkish gel in them. Works great.

:yeahthat: I second this. I think we would all be better off this time around if both the contenders did exactly that.

No other feeling has ever been quite like that first solo. Congrats.

Sorry, I did not mean on release to mean opening weekend. I meant that movies that make way more than production cost over the course of their normal release seem to find a way to drop all the profits before taxes are due. The movie studios, just like most international corporations, use ever...

Lol, look at accounting on most movies. Unless the thing was an unexpected blockbuster no movie ever makes money according to the studios. They use little tricks to have the cost of the movie equal whatever is brought in so that they can avoid almost all taxes on the things. There have been...

I am guessing it is because he changed his display name and wants the project associated with this one. I have watched a few of the videos as I work up to my checkride. They tend to be a little scattered, but done by knowledgeable people. I would not suggest them from primary study, but they...

By the truckload, preferably through an IV. But my wife really likes coffee, and is a bit of a snob about it. So we have a Giaggia Brera that we do cappuccino and other foo-foo coffees with. Saves us a bundle on Starbucks, which is really good since the little town we moved too does not have a...

I begged and pleaded with the wife to reconsider this plane. Promised the wash dishes for a year, even told her I would sale the Harley to own my first plane. No joy.... I really thought this one would be gone in days pending a pre-buy.

I know a few ladies that would answer yes to that.

David, what is wrong with dealing with a bonded insured avionics installation company that will verify the unit is a) the real unit, not some grey market knockoff, b) fully functional without defects, and c) upgraded as you state? You have a very interested buyer, but cause a lot more questions...

Different brands have different names for the levels of PAP machines. It sounds like some people are getting these confused. Bottom level is CPAP. Puts out only one pressure. Never changes unless the machine is reprogrammed. That pressure helps keep the throat from blocking while breathing in...

So basically a plane no one else is really flying for $80 a month plus gas costs. Why, oh why, can something like this not come up at my little FBO. Feel like moving this just across the border to Colorado? I will fly the heck out of it foe you. :D

Here is Colorado radon testing and mitigation is a requirement for selling, or at least that is what we were told about 2 years ago. Our house had already been mitigated, but the radon test showed high numbers. Turns out the fan in the system had failed... and the company that installed it and...

+1 for using your IPad. Worked like a charm on both my student XC flights.

Pretty much it. At the hold short line you announce your intentions, check for traffic in the pattern one more time, taxi onto the runway and take off.

Haggis is number 1, at least for people here in the states. The really funny part is that the first time I had it was at the Japanese Highland Games in Tokyo Japan made by a Scot team they had flown in to make authentic food. I got to sit with some high ranking Brit and Japanese diplomatic corp...

So I found out how to check the pucker factor on my CFI today. First time up together in about a month, and she decides we should do a soft field takeoff. I set the plane up and we started down the runway. As the speed was coming up I felt the front wheel start to get lite, and just then...

That is so funny. I should do my checkride by the end of the month, and I am excited to do a lot more work at towered fields. All the freq changes, repeats, and other traffic is a pain, but uncontrolled are second nature. Get the weather, pick a runway, and keep everyone informed while watching...
