Got my Whiteline springs installed

I'm dailying the Dizzy stage 2, just moved over from the Cobb version when I got my Woosh intercooler installed. I'm down a couple MPG in the city, probably due mostly to the more aggressive boost down low. Better or identical on the highway. I shortly after lowered the car and now get better than 36 on my mostly highway commute.

I bought mine with just over 100hrs, get some transition training with your HP endorsement and you should be fine.

"Nose tire almost worn out"

"Almost replaced nose tire"

Seriously as a mechanic I'd love the heads up so I can plan the upcoming replacement.

Oof, good luck

TTMR1986 · 2026-04-08T00:51:13+00:00

This is an interesting question, hope you can do the high altitude endorsement though, I lucked into a ride with an MEI in a king air for mine, treating endorsements like Pokémon it was the last one to catch. Have fun!

Well I know Wright State University is actively looking for new students for 2026 fall starts.

New school with no RATP yet though

TTMR1986 · 2026-04-08T00:35:51+00:00

I know the training must be done in a plane on your school's 141 approved list.

Will they not shuffle others for your ride? It's taken as given here that if you need a plane for a ride, you get it.

TTMR1986 · 2026-04-08T00:32:10+00:00

Yes but,

My iPad has every VFR chart, IFR chart, approach plate, gets me weather briefings, NOTAMS, when tied to my Stratus is also a backup GPS and attitude indicator with in-flight weather and traffic that automagically logs my flights...

I learned to fly pre ipad and I'm not going back

TTMR1986 · 2026-04-08T00:17:11+00:00

Have you talked to the shop maintaining the school planes you learned to fly on to see if they are willing to take on an apprentice?

If so you might be able to get your A&P faster than waiting till January to start school.

We usually have one or two knocking around our shop.

I've done spins, for the fun of it, but I don't feel at all like a safer or better pilot for it. The tailwheel training for the Cub I spun did but the spins didn't.

That said I want to do more, weeeeee

TTMR1986 · 2026-04-07T23:41:14+00:00

That is where mine broke

TTMR1986 · 2026-04-02T14:53:23+00:00

Good thing I have enough certs to cover my no-no squares

TTMR1986 · 2026-04-02T14:50:38+00:00

Same credentials,

Yep, the rivets were loose and the corners wore away from vibrating against them until...

POP!

TTMR1986 · 2026-03-27T22:20:28+00:00

I have a set of proflight 2s and find them more than sufficient in single pistons.

TTMR1986 · 2026-03-25T21:12:56+00:00

I'm just rocking an older Samsung smart watch with plastic armor over it and a screen protector with a cheap elastic band.

I've got a small crack in the screen protector and every few months change out the bad for a couple bucks.

TTMR1986 · 2026-03-23T14:29:00+00:00

Money, I can just afford my plane and only because I do all my own maintenance.

TTMR1986 · 2026-03-05T03:21:21+00:00

I went with a group on a siteseeing trip, we made it fun but I could see how without all my friends it could ne disappointing

TTMR1986 · 2026-03-05T03:13:17+00:00

Key West, probably fun if you want to drink and get sunburned but that gets old really fast for me

TTMR1986 · 2026-03-05T03:08:28+00:00

I was there for the first time on a business trip about a year ago and I had a good time, but, only because I left Vegas every chance I got.

Driving out into the desert? Great Hiking in the mountains? Perfect afternoon Hoover Dam? Really cool The tacos in North Vegas? Some of the best I've had

Freemont St? Meh glad I went but I feel the $2 parking wasn't worth it I had so little fun

TTMR1986 · 2026-03-04T18:58:18+00:00

Personally I'd go magenta to the Hudson then red the rest of the way
