    Commercial written study programs

    Sheppard air for the written. To learn, I preferred a combination of the FAA books (PHAK and Airplane Flying Handbook) and FAR/AIM. Fly8AM was pretty good. I feel guilty for saying it but I thought King was a serious let down. I really admire them but I didn’t like this product.

    Accelerated IFR training

    I’m going to give a caveat to my GATTS suggestion. I went there several years ago and it was great. Times change though so it might be worth asking someone who attended more recently.

    Flying While Pregnant

    My wife traveled extensively while she was pregnant. We finally came home from New Zealand when she was in her 3rd trimester. I'm a physician and read the medical literature on the subject and I was comfortable with it. The partial pressure of oxygen is much higher at your planned altitude than...

    Commercial rating in an LSA

    Are there any issues logging hours and/or taking a commercial check ride in an LSA? I think it's okay but the regulations seem a bit confusing.

    Spirit Airlines Capt and wife found dead Thur AM

    This!! And the government mandated hospital surveys where patients rate physicians "quality" by whether they address their "pain" adequately. This is now directly tied to hospital reimbursement. I.e., give the patients the drugs they want or the hospital will fire you and find somebody...

    I may have ruined GA experience for a friend of mine

    I've had success with over the counter non-drowsy Dramamine (meclizine is the generic name). I recommend everybody I take flying for the first time to take one. Zofran is a great nausea medicine but is less effective for motion sickness.

    Question on Airplane Purchase

    The last couple of times I bought and sold used cars around here, I was required to do a wire transfer because apparently there have been a lot of fraudulent certified checks. My bank suggested I also use a wire transfer to receive the money rather than certified check. How much does an...

    New Flight Design low wing LSA announced

    Aren't there a bunch of people who have paid deposits and full payment for planes but haven't received their aircraft yet? Seems like I'd be pretty ticked off if I was waiting several years for an airplane I had paid for and they have moved on to another venture. Am I missing something?

    Piper 151 .. what do ya'all think?

    Yup. I might even say that is generous. I fear you might have new airplane buyers blinders on this one. It's not like this is some rare plane and an opportunity rarely comes across to buy it. You will take a bath on it if you go to sell it. It's priced almost double what it's worth. Don't be...

    Piper 151 .. what do ya'all think?

    The horse power thing is up to you. Personally, I like the 140 and 160s depending on what you're going to do with it. Now, the price,. WAY too expensive!!

    Huntsville international has had shall we say a colorful history of flight schools and instructors. I lived there but drove a long way away to train. Your best bet is likely at the arsenal or MDQ. Send me a PM if you want some names.

    It is very pretty. I did some research on that one before I committed to fly to see it in person. You may want to check its history. It had some major damage from a ground loop and nose over.
