    Sparkplug Socket

    I always thought spark plug sockets had rubber up in them. It should take a little force to put the socket on the plug and to pull it out. So it does not fall out when removing from deep in the engine(properly size hose can do the same and bends). I would go craftsman or to the jungle

    Practice Approach in to Teterboro

    Read the departures I was told not above 1500 or you will get a violation and u might not get to come back. Make sure if someone is in the other seat they are helping and not distracting. Lots of cool planes on the ground here… very few props.

    Best book on commercial flight maneuvers

    The FAA airplane flying handbook. I quoted it during my commercial. Its free and covers most of the maneuvers if not all-and uses the proper FAA terminology. Just like the ACS i am always surprised when I hear of pilots who do not reference or have not read these publications. Sincerely….
