No rental car needed. My cousin lives in Round Rock and will meet us at the airport. Looks like the tower won't really make a difference since the A/FD for GTU says that the tower closes at dusk. GTU is still winning right now as it looks like I can tie-down for $5 a night (assuming the website...

I'm planning on heading over to Round Rock for Thanksgiving and would appreciate any recommendation between Austin Executive vs Georgetown Municipal. After almost a year of working up the courage, my fiance agreed to fly with me again. Our first flight together was out to Brehnam for lunch...

Thank you. Current plan is to leave out of Sugar Land, make it to Lackland 10 minutes before sunset, low approach, touch and go at SSF and maybe SAT, then back to Sugar Land to do my night currency stop and go's.

I'm going to be flying out to San Antonio tomorrow night and was thinking about asking San Antonio Approach for a low approach to Kelly Field while I'm in the area. Honestly just think it could be a cool experience to add to my logbook. Does anyone have any recent experience with this request?

'77 Aztec F (PA-23-250) Thank you for the suggestions so far!

Hopefully no one will mind if I revive this thread instead of starting another "Houston Pre-buy" thread. I'm looking at an Aztec out of Houston Executive. Any recommendations for a pre-buy inspection?

I'm planning on taking my cousin up for a bird's eye view of A&M and haven't quite figured out how to put together the request for "flying circles around the best school in Texas". Requesting a "city tour" doesn't seem quite right, and I'd like to stay around 1500, which would have me loitering...

How did you find out what they actually wanted?

After some very brief Google research, it looks like there is precedence of allowing a CFI to provide/charge for services in an Experimental. However, this does not apply to primary training. I haven't been able to track down what exactly the FAA considers to be "primary training". I would...

The thread I started for GA "needs" has had some great input so far, and I realized that it might be appropriate to ask the same question with respect to commercial aviation. Commercial aviation would be referring to anything that requires a commercial or ATP license. As a thought exercise...

Assumption: In order to bring the cost of entry down, rental fees would have to come down. How much are rental costs driven by maintenance/inspections vs operating expenses or insurance? How receptive are flight schools to planes that have less proven history but lower operating costs?

Hi everyone. Sorry if this has been posted before, but my searches have come up empty so far. I am a low hours private pilot, and do not have the experience to phrase this question in a more elegant fashion. As a thought exercise, what are the current "needs" in general aviation? What are...
