sorry for the double post! i want to quote/ reply so many of these because of how much i appreciate the insight. glad that my thinking was sound, this reinforces my decision and is a reminder to myself that i am a good, safe (new) pilot. :) just for ultimate clarity: the ammeter is the only...

i gave them a call and let them know as well as marked it down as a squawk in the book. looks like the plane went out later in the day - they didn’t seem too concerned at the moment, but i’m not sure if they had a mechanic go check it between myself and the next rental. in general they’re known...

Drove the hour out to KFRG this morning to go for a nice scenic leaf peeping flight through the Hudson Valley before work in a rented Warrior III, with a digital ammeter / charge indicator. Once I got through run-up, noticed the gauge wasn't reading at all - not even zero, just completely inop...

Totally fair, I am a brand new PPL after all :) - in general, I'm usually fine with finding frequencies (including when there's some sort of notation around heading / direction / time associated that denotes where and when to call), but I was more confused around which of the many frequencies in...

This was SO incredibly helpful, thanks so much for this reply, definitely helps me to understand the complex airspace around NYC!

Correct for both, since I've picked up FF from them when heading eastbound along the coast (realizing why picking up northbound doesn't work on this freq), but I appreciate the help - departure freq. from KFRG makes the most sense in this case :)

Brand new PPL here, based out of KFRG and realizing a question that I'd forgotten to ask my CFI, and a question that I'm a little embarrassed to ask because I feel I should know the answer- During my long XC, I planned a route of KFRG -> KPOU -> KHFD. After taking off from FRG, I tuned into...

Checking in here, flying out of KFRG with 24 hours under my belt (+1.3 solo time!) about to go into my first night flight this evening, and getting ready to take the knowledge test after making my way through Sporty's online ground school & multiple practice tests

Gotcha - Will give that a shot. I'm realizing I probably didn't provide as much detail as I should have on the form itself... Thank you!

Hi all, current student pilot and have my 3rd class medical coming up on Friday - I included that I had asthma from ages 5-12 or so on my FAA med application. I've since grown out of it, and it hasn't affected me in almost 20 years. I haven't been prescribed an inhaler, or seen a doctor for...
