    Theoretically possible to get PPL/SEL IFR and AMEL all at the same time?

    you could do it, and it would be even less than what you posted above as MEL as an add on doesnt require any written or hours. You just have to be at the minimum standards to pass the checkride. Which could be 3 hours (rare) or 10-15 (usually the case). The only method I see this as anything...

    ForeFlight iPad Notice

    I wouldn’t. I used to run GP because well my entire avionic stack was garmin. Connext was convenient to update all my garmin databases wirelessly and quickly. Doesn’t support Jeppesen plates and once you have to use JDM - that extra step doesn’t make sense anymore. GP is a decent program. It...

    ForeFlight iPad Notice

    the device is 8+ years old and this is technology guys. . But seriously, apple just isnt releasing IOS updates for the device. It isnt being bricked - you continue to use the device as you see fit. However Boeing/Foreflight has said that since they need to keep moving - they arent going to...

    This awesome airplane is not right for you if you need to see the logbooks

    as someone who has sold a couple planes - trust me as it isnt any more fun on the other side. There are so many tire kickers, and just as many dishonest buyers out there as there are sellers. its the wild wild west. . . lol I dont know how many people who promised this or that, or will be...

    182Q vs 210N cabin size

    haha. if I could fly more, I wouldnt. But I dont have 300+ hours a year to fly. . . But yes I will probably list or broker it in the next week. Its a 1982 P210N. 1100 hours SMOH, 3500 TT. If you're seriously interested, drop me a PM. But the P210N is a different bird than the T, but as...

    UWO dorms PIREP

    It absolutely has to be. But somehow someone has bucketized the cost to staff and resources of working it as costing something ( or maybe the cost is calculated as having the entire university open which it isn’t) and/or maybe that the revenues from osh are thrown in another bucket as...

    182Q vs 210N cabin size

    four adults and granddaughter is 5 :-). but yes, I usually fly with 5 seats (one pulled out for easier ingress/egress). Its fully capapble of 4 adults and child. Its useful is north of 1200 for the heaviest of them for P. The T's are 1300-1400 I believe. So 500lbs of fuel and the rest is...

    182Q vs 210N cabin size

    Make sure you can get insurance in a 210. Well maybe not you but everyone that you plan on listing on there. They are requiring instrument I think for any new 210 policies being written. But it’s a solid 4 pax plane and faster than a 206. Lol

    182Q vs 210N cabin size

    i have had the 182P and a P210. The 210 is 2" wider than the 182 but feels more than that. Its also obviously roomier in the cabin. My P210 doesnt have the open back that the T210 does, but figure they have 3 rows of seats, with the rear 2 seats of the 210 similar to the rear of the 182. It...

    DPEs: how firm is the >50NM rule? Would distances of 49.5NM be rounded up?

    Just log it correctly. Log the repositioning flight to other airport. Then log the ORIGIN as the other airport and going to the > 50nm airport as the XC flight. If you dont log it correctly, then it can be bounced

    Pre-purchase inspection advice

    The best way to handle this is that you put earnest money down on the deposit in escrow. Seller orders the annual inspection. Put it in the agreement - if seller doesnt make it airworthy - then seller covers the cost of the inspection (seller would be foolish to not finish and just get the...

    Pre-purchase inspection advice

    Because the mechanic will hold the lien against the plane for non payment. And the plane is still owned by the seller. So in cases where people go “will sell with a annual” - (which one shouldn’t take to be worth much as it’s their mechanic) - it’s them ordering the annual and the annual is...

    Pre-purchase inspection advice

    You dont own the logbooks. Technically you cant have the A&P perform service on something that isnt yours either. The owner has to do it. You cant force a logbook entry in to someone elses logbook. Though the A&P can deem it unairworthy and that bag of worms. But its also why

    Pre-purchase inspection advice

    Depends upon timing. Mechanic doing the annual will bill the owner generally. As technically he cant "annual" the plane you are looking at and make any log entries in the logbook. So technically you dont pay anything until you determine the outcome of the result. The mechanic is in...

    How old is to old

    didnt some guy just get a fedex turboprop hauling job at 53 or something ? So its obviously not too old for getting a commercial flying job. You just might not be getting much seniority at a legacy airline.

    1st class medical with anti-depressants

    Exactly. And thats the way it probably should be - if its something to do with a drug that impacts mental processes. Otherwise - saying a doc that prescribes wellbutrin because its found to work for Seborrheic Dermatitis and the person takes it - well guess what - it also has other side...

    1st class medical with anti-depressants

    You would think so, but just because its prescribed for IBS - doesnt mean it doesnt also affect the neuro process and doesnt have an impact there. If there is something they dont like about it because it causes some mental changes - if the patient is taking it for IBS - those other mental...

    Pre-purchase inspection advice

    also if you are financing it - most of those will require a plane that is within the annual and airworthy.. . .
