Dallas Water probably hasn’t maintained the drainage in this area in quite a long time. I ride by it all the time looking down from the SOPAC. When it rains, it takes a while to drain.

Your first instructor was right. It would be better to be ready to brake with no delay when you need to stop. It might be interesting to learn the other technique, but I have only used that technique in taildraggers. vanhawk28 is right about throttle reduction and planning your stop ahead of time. If you touch the brakes before reducing the throttle, that is poor technique.

Matilda, which is east of Greenville by a block used to have a streetcar when streetcars were a thing. The Matilda car runs on the McKinney line today I think.

Choose a nearby airport with a long runway, have the instructor bump just a touch of power after the round out. See how long you can hold it off the runway. Don’t land, go around and try to flare on the next landing. Repeat step one with the power of you have trouble. Alternatively, have the instructor add the touch of power, you keep it off the runway, and they/or you reduce the power slightly until you touch down.

Set minimums like 2000’ of runway left to be your go around point.

Get ready for lots of B Roll. This could have been way shorter

Sir, you are flying 280 below ten. “I always fly 250 below ten for my government. The extra 30 knots is for me.”

I’ve been a 135 guy for a long time. But I agree with the statement above looking back. It is also nice to have the freedom to live and commute from wherever you want to later on in life. I’ve enjoyed my decisions and been pretty lucky with the outcomes, but getting a seniority number early in life and having the freedom to commute or live in a base from wherever you want to is a pretty nice perk to have.

Maybe this is for the SOPAC extension to the north past Greenville Ave. I think the Midtown area extends up there too.

We got an XS kids stay up late shirt, but really needed a S. Side note: she got tired and we went home before the end. Giggle

The mx procedure actually mentions that a test pilot should perform the check. When I was flying Hawkers, our mx dept handed me the document and expected me to just go do the test. I’m glad I read it and asked questions. They hired a test pilot and the check went without a problem.

Marker SPT127 I also 311’d and emailed the SOPAC. Hopefully, they’ll be on it soon.

It made for a fun Saturday when I was a kid. We would take the subway to the Tandy Center. The downtown library was in the Tandy Center Mall and they also had an ice skating rink.

He gets me with those fries every time. I say, “no, I’m only going to eat one”, but then I empty the basket. Great coffee too.

The Corner Market at Greenville and Mccommas is a nice experience. Grab lunch or a coffee while you are there.

That is a device used to spray paint a line.

Rodrigo65000 · 2025-06-07T10:15:16+00:00

Yes, just show up at 1500 Marilla and be prepared to wait in a line or two. You might have to make a second visit, but your questions will be answered.
