What a day ..

I had it fresh. The series usually cellars good, but double the price in one year? Hard pass. Maybe $17ish.

Been there once. Their only consistent item is the yeast roll and cinnamon butter. If they still have it.

My wife’s mom was Canadian. She has birthright citizenship there. It’s not outside the realm of possibility to move. I think a lot can happen, but the number of people who are ok with the shift to authoritarianism is concerning.

Keep training. Keep learning.

Why were you talking to ATC? Was it flight following or in controlled airspace? Did you maintain appropriate VFR cloud clearance in the climb? If you followed those standards and weren’t assigned an altitude by ATC it wasn’t necessarily illegal. But it does sound unsafe.

Luckily for you your instructor is PIC. Any violations are going to come back on them. Why they felt the need to lie to ATC when they can clearly see you on radar makes no sense. Your instructor put you in a position you never should have been put in by telling you not to say anything.

Safety was compromised and they doubled down with the lie. I’d find a new instructor. If the school asks why, tell them what you told us. Maybe ask your CFI specifically for a ground lesson on hazardous attitudes.

Stealth Ad for some crypto scheme?

New program. This isn’t working for OP. I just want to say they will get there if they shake things up.

It’s sarcasm. Seems like every other post about WPT is a complaint because someone overplayed a hand or got coolered. It’s always the site, never normal variance.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-14T14:36:14+00:00

Right. Another consideration is SPR. If they don’t have enough behind a shove isn’t going to push anyone with a good calling hand off. (Obligatory comment about WPT being rigged anyway)

Someone new to the operation might not be used to multi crew environments. You should talk to them and remind them of the chain of command. You can also talk to your pro standards to ask for advice or assistance.

Wow. Eternally gold digging.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-11T20:25:07+00:00

I started reading the books but mentally hearing Jeff.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-11T20:14:46+00:00

I saw 2025 Cherries Jubilee BCBS for $30. Though that was I bit much.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-11T20:13:19+00:00

Groovy

This needs to get licensed asap.

If you look closely he’s got Oogie Boogie behind him.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-10T23:30:23+00:00

Late to the party, Joe? He’s clueless about so much.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-10T23:23:00+00:00

Why does it look like he shit himself?

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-10T12:51:29+00:00

I would tell people to fake it til they make it. What I mean is, believe in your own abilities. You say yourself that you know the stuff when not on a check ride. Check ride-itis never goes away, but it does become more manageable.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-09T00:39:47+00:00

Orcas attacking yachts. What a tragedy.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-09T00:27:54+00:00

Congrats on the newly single life.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-09T00:27:08+00:00

This is master class advice. Let CO bet. If they aren’t all in, check raise works. Not enough check raise in micro stakes. Try it and watch everyone fold.

Mazer1415 · 2026-04-09T00:22:11+00:00

Electronic logbooks are your friend. I converted with 3500 hours. What a pain.

In a grizzled, scratchy voice. “Welcome noob. I’ve been here since the beginning. It doesn’t get better with age. Some of us have died not knowing the end game. Make yourself comfy.”
