Near 90* today. He probably did some perspiring when I announced that I've had enough of this shet, go fly the plane yourself. I got to film it for him so I was out in the sun sweating my arse off filming him.

Honestly neither of us. He was prepared and is a very quick learner. His mother couldn't make it though. She got her PPC when she was 17, her dad a Naval Aviator.

Congrats to both. Now get him finished up!
She wasn't there, read it again!
And you couldn’t go to her home to get a pic or two? You’re letting us down...

'76, and just had the 160 hp conversion and a climb prop installed. Flys very well and climbs good.
Let me ask you something Tim. POH has nothing on min oil quantity, as well as the '69 Arrow's POH. Read somewhere it's 2 quarts. Been tellin students to go with 4 quarts. What ya think?

Just shows how bad he wanted to get away from you Mark.
Can't blame 'em! Flys better without the dead weight in the right seat.

My POH says 2 quarts minimum, but it sounds crazy to me, so like @BarryCooper i consider 5 minimum as well.

I usually add a quart to our Cherokee when it gets down to 5 1/2.

Mine says 2 quarts and an 8 quart fill. But it spits out anything over 5 1/2 so that's where I keep it.
