    Where to mount GoPro (Cessna)

    I use the same setup as Oliver here. Only difference I use 2 hose clamps for that extra bit of safety. All parts can be purchased at HD/Lowes for under $15.

    Day of the noobs

    I went to Sam's last month for the first and last time last month. That place is a ripoff and the lobster rolls are nasty! However, I did see a biplane doing aerobatics by KHAF which was cool.

    Written Test Costs

    I payed $140 for my test also ($150 - $10 AOPA discount). Just to note that the computer test has an E6B computer you can use. No need to pull the old school slide flight computer unless you like using it. :D

    Freelance CFI marketing

    In the SF Bay Area I've seen schools and CFI's use Living Social, Groupon and similar websites to promote their demo flights and Bay Tours. If it's a good price they'll probably sign up and you never know. They may be your future students or they can give you a good word and review. Good luck! :)

    Trying to decide on a gopro

    I have 2 of the GoPro Hero 2's. One for inside and outside the plane. I've seen the Hero2 for $199 which is a screaming deal! Personally I don't use the highest resolution/fast frame rate settings. Don't need really them if you're gonna put you're videos on YouTube.

    Dream To Be A Airline Pilot

    My CFI also flew for the airlines (regionals) for 2 years and he said after everything the pay ended up to being $7/hour. :hairraise: Now he's a cop and does CFI and fly's corporate when he's off.

    All examinees of DPE Edward L. Lane to be required to re-test

    Wonder if this guy is still a DPE. Came across his videos awhile back when I was learning about short/soft field TO/landings. Uploaded around a year ago. Here's another article on this guy. http://www.ainonline.com/comment/2221

    Space shuttle Endeavor comin' to town

    Negative. :) Taken in Burlingame where all the hotels are next to SFO. Barely caught it when it was in the East Bay and saw it over the city. It flew towards us over San Bruno mountains but thought it would fly over SFO and the bay but instead it went behind us down the peninsula. Attached...
