Congrats on the PPL!!! I’ve been flying the 182 and the 172 at TFC. Love the 182! I just took it to Indy Exec last Saturday for a soccer tournament. Both have dual Garmin G5’s and a 430 WAAS. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So encouraged by this. I got my ticket back in 1992 and as of 2019 had only about 120 hours. I flew in a few small spurts over the years but time and money never worked out. So far since April I’ve been flying about 5 hours a month, joined a club, earned a high performance endorsement, and I’m...

Oh cool I didn’t know this. Scott Speicher went to Florida State (my alma mater) and they named the tennis complex in his honor. I also was at a football game where there was an F18 fly over in his honor with one jet leaving the formation in a vertical climb with afterburner representing him...

Alright I’ll look for a Blue Ram pickup and a Coleman pop up with a wind sock. I’ll be rolling in on Saturday in a white Winnebago View (Dodge Sprinter chassis). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I live in Bourbon country and will bring my favorites to share! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh that’ll have me overstaying my welcome. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Sounds good, thanks for the reply. I plan to run on house batteries at night, already have a CPAP that will run on 12V. I plan to charge the batteries in the daytime with the generator. That way I’m quiet and a good neighbor at night. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Angelica, I wish you the best on this path you’re starting down. There’s a Buddhist blessing that I think goes well here: “May you be well, may you be safe, may you be happy, and [my fav part] may things come easy for you.” Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I laughed out loud and drew stares in a crowded airport gate at this line. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Is it hot at night in Wisconsin? I have never visited the state, and was under the impression that I could sleep comfortably in my RV with windows open and maybe a fan at night. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Today I learned that POA censors curse words.

My CFI surprised me the day I solo'ed. We did about 3 circuits through the pattern and he said, ok, full stop, you're going to taxi back to the ramp and let me out then you're going to solo. I argued with him that I wasn't ready, that I needed a few more trips around the pattern with him. He...

Sweet! Have you solo'ed yet? Learning to fly was one the highlights of my life, so I get pretty excited about talking to anyone learning to fly. Whenever you have a tough lesson, don't hesitate to reach out here to me or anyone on POA for support.

Hi Tony, Thanks for joining in! Are you working on PPL or IR? I had my checkout flight at Thoroughbred on Wednesday! The 172 flies great. Next week I'm working on getting a checkout in the 182. Cheers, Jeremy

Sounds good Chris! Hopefully we can help each other learn as we earn our IR. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Chris! Are you talking about Willow Island? I’ve flown with Ethan too, I just had 6097G out yesterday for a solo XC to FRH and KY8. I ended up hanging out with Ethan about an hour or so troubleshooting a problem with his Stratux. If you’re interested, we could trade off flying safety...

I’m renting at LA and Cardinal Wings. The schedules are nuts though. I’ve submitted an application to join Thoroughbred Flying Club at JVY. Looks like the ratio of pilots to planes will be better there. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Love your video! Is that Cherokee yours or a rental? I always have my GoPro or two with me, it's been great for watching myself fly later and seeing areas where I need some polish. I fly out of KLOU also, I'm working on building some XC time for my IR. I've flown safety pilot in the past for a...

Yes that sounds like James S. I spent about an hour with him at JVY looking at the planes and talking, great guy! Once I hear back from James on my membership application I'll give you a shout on here and see if we can find a time to fly. Cheers

Now that is a dilemma of choices! Well if it helps and you don't make a decision too quickly, I'll be happy to give you my impressions once I'm in the club a few weeks. And since you're up for flying safety pilot with me, maybe we can plan a flight in their 172 once I'm checked out so you'll get...
