At my work we have an internal mailing list for pilots. A guy just posted his experience from last week. The write up was very well done and detailed and it was 10 pages long. He said the oral was nearly 4 hours and the flight was about 3hrs... It was rather discouraging to hear, and yes this...

Very nice...

Awesome, hope to be in the same position someday soon

Hi all... Following up on my experience at Driggs... OMG it was terrific. I would rate them a 11 out of 10. I was totally take by surprise at how nice the FBO and lounge area is. I was paired up with Isaac (summer help from Arizona - he was totally awesome) as the CFI. As you can see from...

I have been to Doc Bruce and he is spot on. What I recognized on my journey to getting my BP under control was the following truisms: 1. Your primary care physician is nearly useless and will just toss you on some meds until you complain about the side effects. 2. Get yourself a good...

I too have pondered this, but as a previous poster said, risk management, risk mitigation and avoidance are all related. My first foray into motorcycles was a birthday present from dear old dad - Yamaha 80 in the late 70s at the whopping age of 11, back when shorts, tshirts and whatever...

Thanks for the replies and sorry for delay, been traveling. I spoke with flyjacksonhole folks and they are short on CFIs and politely declined. I did find another venue Teton Aviation just across the border in Idaho that was more than happy to help out. Have a lesson booked, and looking...

Wife and I are going on a vacation, thinking it would be cool to take a lesson while I am out there. Any recommendations? Plan is to have my current instructor give the remote instructor a lesson plan. Any recommendations on CFI, or which school to check with?

This one is labeled as scifi-contemporary, but it is a story of a bunch of hacking types making their way around the world to escape some "stuff". Definitely worth the listen if you like techy-adventure stuff, it is not far fetched very relatable. Reamde...

You are right... I moved out of Gwinnett last year to the north side of Atlanta... The kids refer to it as GwiMexico.

Awesome project.

Just had a similar conversation with my teenager yesterday to give her the idea of how to think about money. If you pay off the house, and are able to continue to make the "mortgage payment" into your investment accounts, you may get the best of both worlds as you can likely put more into the...

K4UJ here. Amateur Extra class from the days when we had to do 20 WPM morse code :-) I have operated DX HF from various parts of the world and was one of the few to operate in the last Scarborough Reef DXpedition. I have been active in many different aspects of the hobby but mainly focus on...

As the new guy here and about to start my PPL training, I am quite surprised at the amount of less than helpful posts. If I get the gist of the thread, the author found what he believes to be a niche to help others and execute the entrepreneurial spirit by blending his love for aviation and...

I'm in and been in for a few months. Mining = printing money, buying crypto is a gamble. Even with the ups and downs I am at 2x my investment. HODLing for now.

and he was dressed a lot like Doc Bruce. For those that did not see my introductory post (linky) after the knee allowed me to put some weight on it and I got the ok from the surgeon to travel, I decided to take a trip north. My present.... a brand spanking new Third Class medical cert !! I...

If you have a passion and a dream, then go for it.

so, no Happy Ending?

Very well done. The 50 1.4 is a good piece of glass. You could be proud to hang any of those in the man cave.

Actually Cobb is a tad bit closer (5ish miles) than PDK to the house. So, not materially different.
