The idiocy of these two nut jobs is pretty funny. Glad they didn't hurt anyone else. On August 13, 1996, at 1822 central daylight time, a Cessna TR182, N6316T, registered to and operated by a private owner as a Title 14 CFR Part 91 personal flight collided with a causeway bridge while...

She is at least 18 isn't she?

Nice manufactured drama there with Ariel.

Yeah, that whole "we are looking for Michael Jordan's Plane" crap was so staged. Wouldn't the security officer have inquired about the camera and camera light hanging off the windshield? Pretty sure all of theose repos were staged.

Yeah me likey. I probably wouldn't give her or Sara Fraher a second look if I walked past them on a sidewalk, but the fact that they are pilots definitely raises the hotness level.

I also liked how Pontz couldn't land to deliver medicine to that woman, yet they had a camera there to get footage of her. Obviously, someone was able to make it there.

Definitely leave the Valium in the script. Maybe mix in a little bath salts also. Will make the movie a lot more interesting.

How were you ever able to identify it?

I did a flight today to two airports, then back to my departure airport. Total of three legs. First two were well,over 50nm. The last one was 49nm. Does this whole flight count as XC time?

Sounds like an incident I had a few weeks back. Get back on the horse ASAP. http://www.pilotsofamerica.com/forum/showthread.php?t=48219

Damn, that sounds like fun.....

OP here. Well, I didn't quit and passed my checkride today. Not really happy about how I did certain things during the checkride. DPE pulled the power during S turns at 1,000 feet. I was over a real nice looking field, and immediately setup to land there. Set it up well, and was then told to go...

Great, thanks for all the feedback.

I will probably be taking my checkride in the next couple of weeks, and have a question on slowflight. Is there any advantage to do the slowflight manuever into the wind if the examiner lets me pick my initial heading? My first thought was yes as it would be easier to get slowed up and the wind...

I actually went up with my CFI on Monday to the same airport. Winds were from 090 at 15 or so, for runway 14. Did better this time. Just got to concentrate on keep that upwind wing down with plenty of opposite rudder to keep the nose heading down the runway. Looking forward to more cross wind...

So are you guys saying that I don't have to remove this tattoo that I got on my left bicep a couple of weeks ago after all?

Thanks for the comments folks. To make matters worse, there was a plane at the hold short line to takeoff after I landed, so I provided him some entertainment. Felt like teeing off on the first tee with an audience. Should have done the go around when I overshot final on my base leg. Gonna...

That point didn't come until very late, and I was only inches off the ground. I do remember the idea of doing a go around did flash through my mind, but I just felt like it was too late, if there is such a thing. I have done a go around in a similar situation before, but I was higher when the go...

It was a 172, and yes I probably should have just gone back after checking the Awos on the way there, or at least after my first landing. Probably bit off a little more than I could chew. Lesson learned.
