Manhattan engulfed in wildfire smoke

They are waas. But why not do instrument without WAAS? My flight school trains instrument in a G1000 skyhawk without waas

I bought a new plane

Thanks - I didn’t really give just getting the plane polished and coated but think that is indeed the route I will go near term In regards to the upgrade - any clue how much it would cost? I was in the process of my IR training and would like to stay IFR proficient and be open to flying in...

Thank you It’s a Cessna 182R.. I posted some picture in this thread here https://www.pilotsofamerica.com/community/threads/so-i-bought-a-c182-what-now.149175/

So I just bought an airplane (first one) and I’m going to have a lot of questions here in the future. Appreciate you guys helping. I have two Garmin GNS 430 waas. The owner showed me how to update them but not which subscriptions to get. He had Jeppessen. But does it make more sense to get a...

Pre buy went very well. Plane is in great condition (on the things that matter.. paint fading/chipping as mention) Couple of pics… will be closing on it in the next couple of days!

Wow that’s a pretty plane - how long was it down for?

Thanks for all this! I’m up to about 30 hours in the 182 and feel fine landing it. This plane did indeed teach me about proper trim usage. But the one I have flown is a G1000. I use full 30 flaps. Occasionally I had trouble with too high of a speed on final but better trim usage has removed...

Thanks! Which one do you have? What did you end up changing after year 1?

I was pretty set on having a piper in consideration when buying (it was between a Dakota and a C182) and the proposed expansion of the AD definitely pushed me towards a 182

I’ll take some pics during the pre buy this weekend !

Great advice here thank you

A few weeks ago I posted asking for advice on which plane to buy - 30s, family, hobby. Cessna 182 was the most common answer. Now I am in contract for an R model, which I have test flown and like. Pre buy is this weekend. Provided all goes well it will close next week or early week after...

Why do you like the vans?

Which one do you have ?

Right now my load is 500 max ex fuel. It will go up as my kid ages

I have 250 saved for this, so I’m looking to spend like 210 and give my self a very conservative buffer of 40 on inevitable expenses for the first few years

Love it. Thanks

Thank you for this
