For the last couple weeks I have been flying the club aircraft N8010L. It seems that everybody's flights but mine always have data available on FlightAware. Nobody files IFR as the airplane is not certified yet all flights except for mine show up in the log. I take flight following on every...

My apologies. I'm barely 100 hours into my ticket and I question everything :D

Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but I believe vfr cruising altitude restrictions begin above 3000 AGL not MSL.

So there's no hard fast rule that says you have to be up at a hemispheric cruising altitude, you just have to be high enough for radio and radar coverage?

So lately I have been opting to pick up Flight Following on all of my cross country flights. A lot of the time I'm going to head westbound and climbing up to 4500 to meet the VFR altitude requirements. As of late the winds aloft have been much better at 2500 - 3000 versus 4500. Is it possible...

:thumbs up:

I simply wanted it in there so that I will get a semi decent idea of the actual cruise flight time. It's really too bad that ForeFlight can't calculate climb out and descent. I don't have an insturment ticket so I have no idea what airspeed would be put on the flight plan. Perhaps you could...

Hey everyone, When setting up the ForeFlight advisor, it asks you to the plug in all of the information for your airplane. One of the values it asks for is the true airspeed and I'm wondering what number to use there as the idea of there being one true airspeed makes absolutely no sense to me...

Yeah, I'm not sure how the forum admin will take to this post but I figured the best place to look for one is a place full of pilots. :cool:

Hey everyone, I'm a low time VFR pilot and recently I picked up an iPad mini and a ForeFlight Pro subscription. The additional features on the Stratus 2 don't seem as if they are something I would personally need at this stage of my flying career. With that said, I'm wondering if anybody is...

I most certainly do. Shooting you a PM with my contact info.

No its 1967 172H that's not IFR certified. I'm going to need to do some rental time in the Arrow for the complex rating.

And so it began. I got the keys to the club 172 yesterday. Extremely economical tach hours and great availability. I think I will be able to finish off my commercial within the year! :cool:

I have about 100 hours in my book and currently all of it is in a Piper Warrior II. I've been offered an extremely cost-effective partnership in a Alon A2 Air Coupe with rudder pedals and a Continental C90. I was wondering if anybody had any advice on what the transitional experience would be like?

That is correct, I am based out of 7B2. In other news I did find a club based at my field with a 1967 172H and my membership should be finalized at the beginning of the week. It's a VFR only airplane but it's going to reduce my cost per flight hour by a good bit which is exactly what I need...

Thanks a lot boss, I appreciate it. :cool:

Hey everybody, My name is James and I'm currently working on time building for my commercial. Was curious if anyone in the area between Worcester and Springfield is in need of a safety pilot, could use a second pilot for long cross country flights, or has an airplane that does not fly as much...

I'm based at 7B2.

I do miss the performance of winter. I am up in Massachusetts and for a good portion of my initial hour building, DA of -2500 was the norm :D
