Congratulations and really good summary of your checkride. You were obviously very well prepared. Makes me realize I am not nearly prepared enough as I get ready to take mine. Thanks

I really liked the mock checkride. There was a lot of good information on what we can expect. Thanks

Congrats and well done..

Good luck on getting back into the sky. I haven't flown since December 6 because of holiday traveling and weather and the flight school being booked. I was on the schedule last Monday-Tuesday and Wednesday and all three days were cancelled due to weather. I am very close to taking my...

Good luck. You'll do fine.

Way to go!!!! I hope to do it before too long.

Thanks, good advice..

Thanks for the advice. I don't have any specific questions and I grasp what you are saying. Be confident and competent.

Congratulations on passing your checkride. Any recommendations for those getting ready to take theirs?

CONGRATS!!

What I like to do is when on the computer at home pull up liveatc.net and go to my home airport for listening to the tower and at the same time go to flightradar24.com and view the traffic at this same airport. They are not always in sync but it's fun to listen and watch traffic at the same time.

Holladay Aviation is great and I am training for my PPL out of Craig right now with Dana Holladay. As others have said he is a great instructor. I am getting very close to taking my checkride. The training cost is $70 per hour and the C152 I've been using is $115 per hour wet. I think if you...

How about something like: To set the high intensity runway lights on medium intensity, the pilot should click the microphone seven times, and then click it A) one time within four seconds. B) three time within three seconds. C) five times within five seconds.

The King course that I used is called "Cessna Sport/Private Pilot Course". It's an online course that now lists for $384. Retail was $379 when I purchased but I got it for $310 as it was on sale. It worked well for me.

Final solo cross country today (CRG-BQK-CRG) of 1.9 hours. I've completed all requirements except the 3 hours of prep for checkride. Total hours right now is 39.3 and I think I will be ready when I get to about 50 hours.

Congratulations, Fly safe. And your mission in flying is??

So, to clarify the process in the below scenario: I'm at my Class D and getting ready to depart. Call ground and make the VFR FF request (ground gives me code to enter at this time which I do). Once I get to runup I switch to tower. After taking off tower tells me when to switch to FF frequency?

Thanks for the info. I am now planning on doing this similar as you. Do you already have your ticket or are you preparing for it? I'm thinking I will not use a sectional chart (but maybe keep on an old one for emergency), plotter, E6B after I get my ticket.

The night cross country time can also be used to fulfill the requirement of "3 hours of cross country flight training in a single engine airplane"

Sounds great. Any idea on the total amount of hours you will have in it upon completion?
