    Static Display “do not touch” sign ideas

    I volunteer at a museum and the number of people who will just put their kids in your airplane and let them play with the controls is crazy. I have been at our air show and seen kids just yank on control surfaces while their parents watch and do nothing about it. Since I fly some of the planes...

    Is this about as boring as flying gets?

    Had a friend who did this a few years before the airlines did one trip in the DC area had to have a Secret Service guy in the right seat.

    [NA] is it time to ditch Amex?

    Amex insurance is secondary to your insurance. That is why they offer it because they rarely if ever pay anything. I had a green card forever and got rid of it a few years ago because there are way better options without a fee. I did get the no fee blue card and they canceled it on me for...

    Personal x-wind minimums, & how often do you divert?

    Straight crosswind I don't mind. Gusty crosswinds not a fan. At my home airport 28/10 when the wind is from the South and it often is you get a lot of rotor from the trees that is far more unnerving than the crosswind itself.

    Rough Ground Flight Review

    If a CFI asked me a question like that and I didn't know the answer. I do on this one. I would say good question not sure let me look it up and pull out my phone. A flight review isn't a test it is about knowing where to find the information not memorizing it all. If the CFI thinks he is a...

    High performance endorsement

    Did complex in an Arrow and HP in a 182. Really not much to it. It is just an airplane just a few more things to keep track of. I did them one winter and had the guy do a flight review while we were at it.

    Continental 0-200D TBO - Years as important as hours?

    Without looking at the log books...Our O-300 was rebuilt in 1986 (I think) it has 4 new(last 5 years) cylinders. It has 1600ish hours with a TBO of 1800. We have no intention of rebuilding it at TBO if it is still running well. It flew 75ish hours last year and probably 100+ the year before...
