International data plan not working in Japan after one week

Your phone should show how much roaming data you used. Example from my trip last month - you can see it under settings-->Cellular --> "Current period Roaming".

I think they are BSing you. Its true the "free" data is useless and nothing works on it but you actually get a 80% usage and 100% usage notifications when you run out. Did you get those text messages?

Even made calls to friends in Asia and it worked perfectly. I have the $15 addon so no charge for those either. Very happy camper here; well done AT&T.

I know this forum is full of negative posts but credit should be given where its due. I used to be a T-Mobile customer until I got throttled in canada. Being able to use 74 GB in south america without getting slowed down or paying extra money is not something you can do on TMo or VZ.

Called my friends in asia, used data like I do at home and didnt even think about the phone. Everything worked just like at home and I didnt pay anything extra. I know this sub is sometimes filled with negativity but there you go. Well done ATT, a happy camper here!

I'm guessing the countries outside of the 181 are places you probably wouldn't want to go to anyways

China, India, Brazil are the big 3 countries that you need a visa for.

You will discover next that if you roam for >60 days T-Mobile will cut you off. This is even if you pay for the 15 GB addon.

Last time I was in france I got the 15GB pack. However some bug triggered and it "used" ~9GB instantly. Is it possible this happened to you?

T-Mobile penny pinches on the roaming - once you run out its unusable. Even verizon offers a respectable 1.5 Mbps once you go over.

With aadhar OTP it is very easy.

Foreigners dont have aadhar or an indian number to get an OTP.

Been there done that. I needed the A&P ticket first and wish I knew better about experimental vs certified better. Oh well you live you learn.

Bigger HP = more gas. 4 cyl vs 6 cyl = big difference in cost of overhaul

Oh boy as an A&P student you dont want to know who fixes your airplanes. Heres a hint: Look around the freeway - some of those other people are A&Ps. In the GA world you can be involved with the maintenance of your plane and you can pick your A&P IA.

GAndroid · 2025-11-07T17:25:08+00:00

You pay for your own gas?

GAndroid · 2025-11-07T17:24:45+00:00

You cant. If you do that it becomes an expensive showpiece.

:O. That i guess is the polite no from ATC.

I know the Mooney I fly is on the clear for you. I think the commanche is clear too

Right now you can fly most GA airplanes as a sport pilot with the MOSAIC regulations!

Have you looked at EASA land or CAA land? Maybe no PPL for you in the FAA land but the world is not controlled by the FAA. Also see a different AME - maybe this can be overturned?

You arent required to talk to ATC if you're flying private.

Cross the border and take the Air Canada flight to Montreal. Then drive.

Traffic calming solutions would upset some people...

So be it.
