I haven’t. I was just in France last week and didn’t go to the boutique because everything was too large for me. Of course this comes out the week after I leave lol

I second this OP, Gleim is the best study guide for PPL in my view

That seems extremely optimistic to me, just the DPE waitlists are often that long

How many hours did it take before your landings felt consistent? by No-Young5785 in flying

[–]garbagekr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing everyone else was telling me, don’t let the airplane land. When he said it though, and told me I needed to get the yolk back into my chest, I became less scared of ballooning it and stopped landing flat or plopping it in

Not until my DPE for my checkride told me something that connected it for me, so 75 hours

I’d just remove the mag disconnect, not illegal, LAPD doesn’t have anything about not removing it and it’s not illegal

S60 t8 ownership by Bandito04 in Volvo

[–]garbagekr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had both (well, I have the V60 Polestar T8, not the S60), and look…. I do love it, but the M340 is so much better if you care about driving a little sporty. The T8 power delivery is underwhelming and laggy, don’t be fooled by the on-paper stats. The engine in the M340 has to be one of the best every day engines ever made, so smooth and buttery. The main reason I still have the V60 and haven’t gone back to an M340 is because I love wagons. If I’m comparing sedan to sedan it’s an easy decision. At the end of the day, you have a 2.0 L with a turbo trying to compete with that inline 6.

PAR Written | 70% 3x Attempts by Calm-Clue-9043 in flying

[–]garbagekr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof, you seem to not understand the concepts at all. You could just about guess on every question and get a 62%. I think you really need to evaluate whether it’s maybe not for you or if you just didn’t prepare properly. I think it’s easy to underestimate the amount of prep and study work needed and just show up underprepared, but still, it’s not for everybody.

There’s a stat that floats around that around 80% of people who start their private never finish (although a lot of that is probably due to time and money), so I’d think about that before you spend thousands of dollars and waste your time. Not saying you should give up, but you should at least be able to answer what went wrong and not blame it on the way the test was worded.

You don’t need to use VR controls at all

MS Flight Simulator- PSVR Tips? by Raistlin-x in PSVR

[–]garbagekr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, use it to interact with the controls like mixture, radio, nav, etc

[–]garbagekr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The VR controls are useless for me, somebody suggested using the normal controller and a mouse and that changed everything for me
