Guy can't understand there are times your business can be done more efficiently and effectively with a fee or a little more cost. Fair opinion, but he considers someone who finds value in it as an idiot. Whatever.

Way to make stuff up. Conversation isn't about fuel price or getting the best deal between two FBOs on the same field. It was about sometimes, the cost is warranted by convenience. Whatever, you do whatever the hell you want to and I'll do the same. Besides, I didn't think there was a Signature...

The amount of effort some pilots put into avoiding a nickel's worth of fees never ceases to amaze me. Then when there isn't an FBO or there are less services, we'll have a thread about that atrocity.

How do you think these private FBOs can be in business without charging reasonable fees? At an airport like KRYY, they have to rent the ramp/facilities from the county at prices that are appropriate for the land use. People choose these airports for their convenience and the nearby...

While you're still a student, please focus on operating the plane and not in typing things into an iPad app. No distractions from the task at hand.

Exactly what I was thinking. Even if you're using a tablet based tool for charts/diagrams/nav/whatever, having to type your "scratchpad" notes seems like a waste and a distraction.

Not to necessarily alay your concerns, but I wouldn't let this part bother you too much. Very well may be a guy who's retired or this is a side business (as others have said, likely a ship from source as needed situation). The business address for my ranches, stable, and other businesses is a...

:yeahthat:

If you can fix all four of them for less than $480, then that's the route to go.

In this case I don't think it's piling on as much as calling BS on a too long running tale of woes from a guy who wants help with his problems but is either quick to argue with any discussion or says "no, that won't work" to any advice or suggested solutions.

Now that looks live an aviation bargain

I am pointing out that you've turned off a lot of otherwise kind and sympathetic people over time here. Arguing with everyone that replies to your posts is a good example of the behavior. Again, good luck getting this resolved once and for all.

You may be, but I doubt many others are. I'm glad you got a good result in court and hope you can provide what you need to the judge to bring this matter to a close once and for all. However, from the multi year telling of your story here and from the way you've interacted with people and...

From Osh '04

Harris County (TX) sent me a pre-filled form on both of the last two planes I've owned (one hangared in Harris county, one not). One came several years into ownership, the other in the second year. In both cases, simply wrote on the form "Not subject to business property tax in Harris County."...

A suggestion Jay: when you get a mostly positive review on Airnav, thank the guy rather than just busting his balls and calling him cheap. Same goes for TripAdvisor, the least bit of constructive criticism and you tend to go after the poster. Doesn't sell the friendly innkeeper persona. I can...

A bit south of your "circle", but you may look at KCXO. You can pre order from Black Walnut Cafe and use Galaxy FBO for fuel and pick up the food.

Using IE, it won't let me pick any of the multiple choice or rank-in-order answers. Really need to make sure your survey works before asking for input, especially after the warm welcome you received from your "would you participate" thread. By running off so many aviators through both of these...

He didn't even know tower was closed until someone on CTAF told him. He hadn't done any basic homework - just kicked the tires and lit the fire.

It sounded like from your OP that you were having issues with the avionics before the jump too. Right?
