    Accelerated instrument training

    For those of you that went through an accelerated instrument training, what was it that you needed to know prior to taking the training. I'm currently with with a CFII, and I am contemplating go to an accelerated program. I'm asking this because I have a friend that is currently in a program...

    Adding a flight review to ForeFlight

    When you select the instructor, it asks what kind of training, you select flight review. You may need to ad the instructor if this is the first time with them.

    Partnership

    The $500 in the scope of things isn't an issue except for the fact that after our annual, our yearly dues were depleted. Again, this isn't an issue because we realize the cost of flying our own airplane, but one partner said do we need the LLC, or just use our agreement. This year our K1 shows...

    Partnership

    We do file a loss every year. I do understand the legal aspects mentioned too.

    Partnership

    I own a small business, so I do know the benefits of having an LLC or any other type of legal entity. We have an LLC for our current airplane partnership, and just had our taxes (K1) created. The cost for this was about $500, so one of the partners asked why we have it, and can we dissolve it...

    Adding existing hours to foreflight logbook ?

    I added all of mine over a several week period. I started in 1983, but didn't take it back up until the 90's. It took me a while.

    Engine

    We have a 1967 Piper Cherokee 180 that has about 1500 or so hours on the engine. Our partnership puts away so much hourly towards an engine replacement. What are our options when it comes to replacement\overhaul? What are the ballpark prices for the replacement\overhaul? We purchased the...

    EFB - Flight Planning Apps

    Started using FF a long time ago and do not see a reason to try another one at this point. Unless someone can tell me what another EFB can do that FF can't.

    Instrument Written Passed

    My intent was to study to the level I need to be for the oral and the flying part too. I spent the money for the weekend course and pretty much wasted my money, and the money for taking the test. The instructor told us to take the test and that we would be surprised. Well I was I actually...

    Instrument Written Passed

    Do you think that the DPE's line of questioning during the oral changes based on your written score? I ask because I was studying for the written through a Gleim online school (did not complete), and then took a weekend class thinking I could cram to get it out of the way should I want to do an...

    Instrument training questions

    This is the position I am in and would like to get some feedback. I am a partner in a Cherokee 180 and one of my partners has been a private pilot for about a year and a half, and I've flown with him several times and he's a very good pilot. Him and I talked several months ago about getting...

    Student pilot hazing aka nav log

    What would happen if the OP was asked to pull out an E6b to make calculations in flight? It really is good to know. Do the calculations and then verify it from your EFB.

    Oh I'm alive. I've flown many planes and just not sure why on this one I can't get a landing where I say that was a good one.

    Hershey bar wings and landing

    Will watch the speed and get right on it. I tried faster and slower and that didn't work.

    Hershey bar wings and landing

    I have experience in both high wing and low wing airplanes, and I have owned a Cherokee 180 with Hershey bar wings since 2019 and love the plane. It seems like I struggle at times with my landings in this plane like I have never had before. It could be anything from flare too soon, to a bounce...

    Trutrak

    I bought a plane a few years ago that has a Trutrak autopilot in it. The owner was upfront and told me that he has experienced the autopilot altitude hold at times going up and down on its own about 100 feet each way. We did experience it on our ride home, and the person I was with is a...
