Currently looking to partner with a fellow POAer that has a Cherokee 6 300. I flew with him this past Sunday and I really like it, so I think I'm going to take it on. Really nice planes.

Sorry, I couldn't resist... Las Vegas, must be a porn star convention.

If you are still out there, I have sent you a PM.

Interesting that this has been brought up and I was thinking about it recently. I'm not an IR pilot and only use FF when flying anywhere. I'm not sure I would be able to easily open the plan once I filed. I recall during training opening the plan on the Radio frequency after listening to the...

A Commander 114 with every possible upgrade.

My flight review is next year, so I'll likely talk with an instructor to do some dual hours. I use my own plane so I will have the same experience.

I am in the same boat as the OP, but I have an extra question. I am going to start my instrument training in a few months, but feel as if I am going to need to take several hours to refresh as a pilot. I have been flying for several years, but only fly a few hours a year. This is mostly...

Are ADF/NDB only used for approaches or navigation too? I've just never used them or was with anyone that has, I think.

I like to follow rules and I'm fine with this. In my area I'm use to the vast radio clutter, so someone saying Podunk traffic Cessna 123XY 10 miles north inbound for landing airport advisory has never bothered me. I always thought it was helpful.

Why is it considered wrong\bad or whatever to ask if there's anyone in the area or runway in use when approaching a non-towered airport?

You're right, I searched for Salty and nothing :)

So I can wear one of these.

I am so glad I read this. What a guy.

I disagree with this. I'm in a 5 partner partnership with an incredibly crappy agreement right now. Our process for obtaining the plane and the friendship among the group lead us this way. At this time we may have a complete change in partnership, and we will take the opportunity to create a...

I've been part of a partnership for several years and frankly we work with no formal partnership agreement or operating procedures. Just five guys that book the plane and use it. One guy is our "leader" that takes payments, schedules maintenance, pays bills and all other administrative...

I have a good understanding of the requirements and the work involved to achieve and then hopefully maintain my IFR, and I look forward to it. My reason for this thread resulted from flying with some very experienced IFR pilots, and seeing the equipment they are using. Barring instrument...

I did read this...

My plane is equipped with an older model panel mounted Garmin GPS with steam gauges, and my quick research shows that Garmin, Avidyne and Bendix are available manufacturers of panel mounted GPS's. I will continue to research for more. When attempting to "modernizing" the plane, what...

It took me about 10 minutes to learn the prop stuff and a heck of lot more to land the 182. It isn't landing a 172. Nose heavy.

What did you buy?
