Just spent a few days at South Padre, the water was excellent. The water was Colder than I remember. It was not as busy as last year, which was great for us, but, bad for business.

Sorry to kinda high jack your topic, but, it is very much of interest to me. I have not flown in years, after I sold my Cirrus Sr20 and miss it. However, there are 5 of us in the family and my mind has been wandering. Thus, topic creep! For a Sr22, I can buy a Fountaine 47' sail boat, here...

The first thought of OSH was a Single White Male With Big Orifice? Crazy pilots!!!

Dad should have stepped up when he was in high school and got a couple DUI's. Daddy paid his way out of them

Someone should have thrown a doughnut inflation device in front oh him. If he hit it, he is to low. Sorry for typos. Texting and driving is hard

Here in San Antonio: In-Out burger, Five guys, Red Robin, Sonic, Burger King, MCD, then Whatta-burger. I'm not much of a Whatta-Burger guy. Now that I think about it, I'm not much of a burger guy in general.

RIP!!! Many chains in the events that unfolded. Unfortunately, the links ended poorly for them all.

I recently encountered something similar to this in Texas. My wife's cousin was looking at a RV they found on Craigslist and the seller was offering free shipping from military and free return if they didn't like it. The seller was at FT Hood, so I told wife's cousin tell the seller they will...

Even if it is vaporware... that is 1 sexy ass plane.... probably totally impractical... but, sexy!

This topic is very much of interest to me. I use to own a Sr 20 and now with 5 in the family I'm looking at a Bonanza. I'm looking at the V35 or an A36. I really like the looks of the V-tail, but I'm still learning about them. Thus, I cannot comment on the differences, but OP, your not the...

I put over 150 Hrs on my Sr20, it averaged 145 kts at 10 GPH. I bought it will 49 hours total time and my insurance was 1580 ish per year.... The climb rate was similar to a 172, about 700 FPM. Over all it was a great plane to own and a joy to fly.

before you get him to the Dr., get him enrolled in a program like JROTC or Boy Scouts... One of my teacher friend recommends sprints and track work for young boys in Jr High... As an Army guy, I will say, if you are to physically tired to do anything... you tend to listen....

Just a thought..... Get your sport pilot, get the license and get out flying.... Then, tackle the radio on your time. You might notice you pick it up faster when you are alone. You've already sunk $30K into it, so another few $K will not hurt. But, you will be flying SOLO.... Build up...

I like his method, as it is something everyone can grasp. I've done his program several times, to be honest..... I paid off all debt, bought 7 houses.... bought some new cars with the cash flow.... sold 6 of the houses.... went into debt by building a custom home..... now I'm back to step...

I have not decided on a budget yet... It all depends on the plane, if I finance, pay cash, etc.... but, I'm ok with about 50k running costs... If I build, then I can add hangar rent into that. Ok... Minus a $4M plane, PC-12, what can realistically land on a Grass Strip? I've been...

Greetings all, It has been a few years since I have been an active pilot, after selling my Cirrus in 2011. Lots of things have happened since then, and I'm looking to get back into aviation. I'm turning to the board, as I start my planning process. Since owning the Cirrus, we have had...

Where are you located?

It's probably the fact that Cirrusis the number 1 selling manufacture right now and bringing more pilots into the fold. Thus, AOPA is trying to capture the new pilots, because they have already milked the currents pilots!!!

My parents were divorced when I was 3. My father and I did as much as we could, but life is life. I started martial arts and shooting at around 6. At 14, I was at my dads house for the weekend... He woke me up at 7 am by smacking my head with boxing gloves and taunting me (in a playful...

Tell him that he is part of the next bubble that will pop! Tell him that if everyone has an education that no one is educated!
