Why don't we make every car license plate owners info publicly available and trackable as to their every movement by everyone on the internet? Zero reason ownership and location data of privately owned planes should be publicly available...you could make an argument for the carriers but not...

Yeah..."field in sight" is the universal but polite "hey dumbazz...did you forget about me?" call when you need a handoff...use it quite frequently "in sight" or not...

Bulllllll Sheeeeeet! My CFI had another student concurrent with me...mid pattern she apparently go so flustered she threw her hands up and screamed "I CAN'T DO THIS!" after apparently being coerced into getting the PPL cuz husband lost his medical but still wanted to fly...CFI said it was the...

Got to see the other side of it a bit...recently purchased a vacant lot to do a build and after one deal that we pulled out of at the 11th hour and scrambling for deal #2 my relator busted her arse for a not very heft commission...as did the selling agent...made the comment "thanks for all the...

Classic resource guarding which is instinctual if left unchecked...you should nip it in the bud or is could easily escalate to other items like food or even humans and get more serious than just a growl even though they are best buds otherwise. Goes against conventional training wisdom but I...

Been asked multiple times but do not offer/info unless asked. Was once told for VFR FF keep it simple.../G if you have GPS, /U if not...just lets controller know if they can give ay a GPS or VOR waypoint in nav instructions if needed.

Taco Bell...

Anyone else a tad concerned about the frantic Pilot's voice on the radio with ATC?...not sure "WE'RE ABOUT TO GO DOWN" might have been the best choice of words...

Keep in mind a purpose of the VFR filed flight plan in VIP TRFs...ATC is not the only one looking over the airspace during a POTUS TFR...nor does ATC really care if you have a Flight Plan on file to enter if on FF...they are not the entirety of legal jurisdiction. DOD and who knows what other...

As a business owner myself I got chatting about the biz, operational numbers, and aircraft ownership options with my Flight School owner and all I remember him saying was "I love leasebacks, they always work in the favor of the flight school over the owner" Good luck with on coming out with...

My regular UPS and FedEx drivers are great...but I also put a package drop box at the end of my driveway and offer bribes..

I thought that is what two stroke gas leaf blowers are for...to blow them into your noise sensitive climate activist environmentalist neighbor's yard...

trust me...FAA is not auditing corporate records to examine how employees spent their 8 volunteer hours once a year... Same if you take you dad on a flight and he swipes his credit card at the AvGas pump then buys you such for taking him flying... Yes, "technically" both could be argued to run...

Foreflight for hours and currency but keep a paper log book exclusively just for sign offs, signatures, and endorsements then just scan those into my backup drive with logbook backups. In case of a total data loss, hours can be rebuilt...physical sign offs not so easy.

Why not just get Flight Following?....THAT is what would help controllers as they can not assume your intentions of they are not talking to you and have to leave a wider berth for traffic they are talking to otherwise. If they are too busy to talk to you then it is their problem and just keep...

They are if you don't take the time to learn and understand them...I just turned 50 and over 7000 miles logged on Onewheels and sill have all my teeth. Best last mile device out there IMO...you can toss it in the trunk of an Uber and carry it into a store or restaurant and the new GT model has...

Don't know if he is still here but LVK used to have an absolute Delta Bravo of a Tower Controller there with a serious attitude...he once actually issued a PD to a pilot for a late handoff from NorCal into the Delta with follow up by the FAA...

I trained PPL on a G1000...so that is all I knew...I actually asked my CFI to do a few flight in a steam gauge cuz I knew I would likely not be able to afford to purchase a plane with full glass...ended up with an Aspen which is the best of both worlds giving me both a glass readout and full six...

No Discovery on basic...needs Live TV plan which is more than I wanted to spend for a few channels. Sling Blue checks most of the boxes but even that is still $40/month.

Recently moved and no cable at new place...nor do I even really want it. Have Starlink which is solid and gonna get an Apple TV...all I really want is the major news networks (CNN/Fox/MSNBC), Discovery Channel (for Gold Rush) and History Channel (for Curse of Oak Island)...don't watch TV sports...
