    Got to fly in a very nice plane

    He asked if I wanted to be in the left seat on the way back. Not sure if he was serious but I just chuckled. The thing practically landed itself. I think I drove him nuts asking what switches and buttons were for the entire ride. The part where things became nuts is that he didn't know the...

    Got to fly in a very nice plane

    Yesterday I flew with an instructor that I do my flight reviews with. I want to start my IR soon, so I asked him to let me know when he's flying his boss' plane and wants someone to go with him. He texted me Monday and said that he had to take the new Pilatus PC-12 NG for some minor...

    A&P in upstate New York

    I believe I have seen Luke Giroux from Giroux Aeronautical work on one but you'd have to reach out to him to confirm it. He's in Oswego NY (FZY) and it's a short flight to Messina. Shoot him a message and see if he's willing to go up there or have the person bring it to him. www.gxaero.com

    Great news - I'm getting a biplane...

    Let me know when you get it delivered. I'd love to see it even in pieces.

    Help Save Light GA at KHPN (Westchester, NY)

    Flew to HPN yesterday and there was a lot of GA traffic. Hard to believe they want to get rid of it.

    Help Save Light GA at KHPN (Westchester, NY)

    Last time I was there I think I called CD. Are you saying you do not have to call them and just fly out of there VFR by calling ground and tower?

    Help Save Light GA at KHPN (Westchester, NY)

    Are there any non tower controlled airports close to KHPN if I didn't want to go into there?

    Help Save Light GA at KHPN (Westchester, NY)

    Are the tower folks currently discouraging GA folks using the airport? I ask because I was thinking about flying there next week. They are always rushing you and out of there anyways, but I was hoping for a good experience this time.

    Audio panel identification and radio stack

    I was told that is wasn't approach certified byt someone and someone else said it is. I haven't looked it up yet. Seems like the 430 and beyond would be easier to use for IFR.

    Commander 114 airplanes

    Most people will reply that they are nice planes and will then tell you that they are slow. They will then tell you that they are costly at annual and parts are costly. I love them and flew in the one from this link...

    Audio panel identification and radio stack

    Attached is our radio stack in a 1976 Cessna 182P. I'm attempting to talk the other partners into an upgrade of something that is a bit more current before I start my IR training. I just recently was able to get the audio panel to work for me, as I think it has issues and there are two...

    Another Upstate NY pilot

    Congrats, now fly up to FZY and we'll go for a spin.

    I can see why some potential students give up flying.

    First I'd like to say that no one that is learning should be subjected to criticism at the level that you explain. I do however think that you should consider changing the subject line to students giving up. A potential student hasn't started yet so giving up isn't an option. BTW, both CFIs...

    I apologize but I've read the OP's post a couple of times but I'm not following it. Who is the buyer and who is the seller?

    Traveling for the check ride / DPE

    His name is Rob Belisario. Maybe Gopi hasn't had much luck with him.

    Traveling for the check ride / DPE

    I believe there's a DPE right on the field that you fly out of.

    Nice Commander

    This was parked right behind where I used to fly out of. I just need about 20 partners. Who's in? https://www.aso.com/listings/spec/ViewAd.aspx?id=166715&listingType=true&IsInternal=True&pagingNo=1&searchId=29644225&dealerid=
