Again, I meant no disrespect to the group. FWIW, as I'm sure you can imagine, this endeavor will likely be a break even deal at best for our school. Hosting the webinars costs us money, and we're just looking to defray some of those costs. Primarily we're offering it as an additional service to...

Sorry... I'd seen similar posts here about ground schools and thought I'd share.

Here at Holladay Aviation, we're taking our Tuesday Night Ground School online in 2014! Unlike most web-based Private pilot ground school courses, ours is interactive. Instead of simply watching a series of canned videos and slides, you’ll be able to participate in the live sessions real-time...

Sounds like a two-way ego problem. Regardless of who is flying what airplane, when two pilots fly together, both have to agree on "the rules of engagement." Who is PIC, what if any responsibilities are shared, who has the controls in an emergency, etc. If either of you isn't comfortable...

Hi there. First, I think you should change your screen name to Happy Landings. :wink2: I can relate to what you're going through, both from the student's perspective and also from the instructor's perspective. If I had to guess, I'd say that the main problem here is not your skill but your...

This is the best response I've seen to this whole thread. One of the lessons Dana and I try to teach our students early on is to "not be a robot." You can (and will) safely fly a Cessna 172 (or most any single engine training aircraft) in the traffic pattern at just about any speed within its...

Hi everyone. Just a quick reminder that Dana and I will be hosting our second FREE GROUND SCHOOL session this coming Tuesday, November 19 from 6-8 pm. The class will be held at our office at Jacksonville Executive / Craig Airport (at Craig Air Center, Suite 3E). Refreshments will be provided...

That's so sweet! Please send any pilot friends you know in the area... we'd love to meet them.

Hi everyone! My husband, Dana, and I operate Holladay Aviation at Craig Airport in Jacksonville, FL (CRG). We are both CFIIs with more than 10,000 hours of flying experience between us. We would like to invite you to join us next Tuesday, Nov. 12 at 6 pm for a FREE GROUND SCHOOL SESSION at our...

Hello everyone! This is Meredith Holladay. My husband, Dana, and I are flight instructors who recently relocated to Jacksonville, FL from the Washington, DC area. We are in the process of securing office space at Jacksonville Executive / Craig Airport (CRG) and wanted to introduce ourselves to...

Holladay Aviation is seeking a nicely equipped IFR Cessna 152/172, as well as a newer S-LSA, to lease for our Florida-based flight school. We are two highly experienced, career instructors and will be operating out of Jacksonville Executive / Craig (CRG). For details please contact Dana Holladay...

Any sim is better than no sim, IMHO but the key is managing expectations and knowing what its capabilities and limitations are. For instance, any at-home setup of MSFS can be used to learn what the flight instruments are supposed to look like during various phases of flight. Depending on the...

Hi. I'm a CFI and too often I see students/clients who are deathly afraid to slip because of the association with "crossing the controls" and spinning. There is a lot of misinformation/misunderstanding out there. Remember, in order to spin, you have to be stalled first. No stall, no spin...

Rick that box no longer appears. I was clearly able to post a reply some time ago, but now it does not work. I belong to many such message boards, and I am telling you there is something wrong with Cubs2OSH. I will send you a screen shot to your email address.

Ok. Yes, I'm logged in. When I press the "Post a quick reply" button I get the following error message: Please correct the following problems: Body is too long (maximum is 20000 characters) Body can't be blank This is before I am even given an opportunity to type...

This is good news. Arrival at OSH on Sunday morning is much more appealing than Monday night. Rick -- I'm having trouble posting to Cubs2OSH. Where do we go to register for the Saturday night dinner? Where are details about the flight from Ohio?

Thanks Adam! I'm not sure the timing will work out for us to make the events at Gaston's or 6Y9 but we'll keep it in mind. If you or anyone else knows of a cool place along our route for us to check out, please let me know!

Hello everyone! My name is Meredith Tcherniavsky and this is my first post on POA. Nice to "meet" all of you here. I thought I'd take this opportunity to let you know about a really special adventure my husband and fellow CFI, Dana Holladay, and I are planning for this summer. In December we...
