    Buying a plane...LSA or not...

    I have read through this and watched this thread and have to say it really depends on the mission of the majority of your flights. Personally since I am only going for my Sport Cert at this time, I will more than likely purchase a newer sport plane only because the older aircraft has such a...

    Love a clean plane

    Better pay them by the plane and not the hour, since the one girl was washing the tires... Either way Nice video.

    As a Student pilot, but having owned more than my share of vehicles, from the 1940's to modern. I can say if your asking your getting the itch for something different, so it comes down to money and value to you. I am sure the '79 is paid for and just needs some minor TLC. I have never...

    Kentucky Bourbon Trail

    Keep in mind several of the distilleries are in dry counties (IIRC) so you can't even sample.

    Kentucky Bourbon Trail

    I live 2 hours from the Buffalo Trace distillery and sadly that is the only one I have visited. It is on my list of things to do this summer in my Cobra now that I have all the kinks worked out mechanically.

    Laptop Hotel Wifi Issues

    Try deactivating your wireless NIC, reboot, then reactivate this may help. Normally for this I would look for an updated driver from the manufacture or add a USB wireless card.

    Anyone own an Arion Lightning E-LSA?

    Haven't flown one yet, but going to go look at one soon if all goes well, one for sale near me. From what I understand about the 3300 is the older one i.e. prior to 2014-2015 (not sure when) the redesigned the engine due to top end oiling issues which could cause major issues if you missed...

    Is going for the Gold Seal worth it?

    Just found out today my CFI just got his Gold seal. Not sure it makes much difference, personally I think he was an excellent instructor even before he mentioned he got his. The only reason he mentioned it is from what I gather Sporty's charges a wee bit more because he is a Gold Seal...

    Sport Pilot on a budget

    As a low time sport pilot in training, 11.1 hours as of my flight this morning, I would recommend buying either sportys or Kings or similar ground school video training and the books i.e. Pilots Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, FAR AIM, Aviation Weather, and the Testing supplement...

    What's the worst plane ever?

    Is the Sling that bad? I have been considering either the Sling 2 or the Bristell for my personal aircraft. Been flying a Cessna C162 Skycatcher and I have to say as a first plan it isn't as bad as the 172N I have had to fly while the 162 is down for an engine overhaul. I will say I am...
