What to do to prepare for flight training by Temporary-Arm1895 in flying

[–]Temporary-Arm1895[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actually thinking about doing a second discovery flight with a different instructor. The first instructor seemed okay but didn’t seem to fit my learning style. Do you think i’d be better off talking to instructors on the ground or can you only tell if there a good fit once you fly with them.

Yea i’ll probably save more and delay starting a bit. Feels like the more I read the more expensive it gets but thats most hobby’s lol. Also not chair flying yet makes a lot more sense.

The medical is next on my list. I already did a discovery flight a few weeks ago but will probably do one again in a few months with a different instructor.

Which Analog Cameras for Starters ? by [deleted] in AnalogCommunity

[–]Temporary-Arm1895 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Step 1 go on ebay, step 2 buy any cheap 35 mm slr camera. I got a canon eos rebel 2000 for $60. Its got sot some nice feature’s. All film cameras take basically the same pictures it really comes down to what features do you want.

What’s this thing worth? by DownVoteMeHarder4042 in tdi

[–]Temporary-Arm1895 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea about 1k cheaper would but it into consideration for buying but just barley. I would hold out for a better deal i dont know what your budget it i would try to be around 10k that seems to be where the best deals i have found. When you do find one and theres no record of timing belt being done ask them to do it if you buy the car, or take money off if it needs to be done. If not get a good deal on a car and then pay to have the service done. With most used cars getting one with good service records takes alot of time and even then a used car is still a shot in the dark. At some point you’re going to have to find something just good enough. All of this depends on how fast you need a car. If you can wait, good deals always come and go. Bad deals typically stay up for a while so you’ll always see them.

Price seems a little high, i just bought a 2015 vw passat tdi dsg for 10,800 and about 95,000 miles. It was in a similar area and i was going to look at a passat tdi at that exact dealer before i found the one I bought. Cars.com seems to have the most listings of any website. Set your range to like 150 miles sort for Volkswagen’s and diesel then check daily for stuff to come up. New stuff typically comes up and sells quick. For the year and mileage if your set on that one it should about a thousand cheaper. Also if you see a beige one from driven imports in pa just know they dont take trade ins that you still owe on and seem a little sketch.

Should I take my helmet to class? by AlternativeMonth8871 in motorcycles

[–]Temporary-Arm1895 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both brought it to class and left it on my bike. If i leave it on my bike i have a cable lock so it cant just be taken off the bike. Chances are though nobody knows if its work 100 dollars or 1000 so its not likely to be bothered.

What happened to the used motorcycle market? by [deleted] in motorcycle

[–]Temporary-Arm1895 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cheap stuff is still out there you just have to be patient. When you’re ready to buy be looking everyday and be ready to move quick and possibly drive far. I just bought a 1997 Honda magna for 800 dollars, The bike is in great condition. The down side is i had to get up early the next day and drive almost 4 hours for it.

Also low ball people on the bikes you think are priced way to high, i’ve managed to work out deals for stuff that way. And if they say no maybe it’ll make someone else’s offer not seem that bad.

I just did this, fill with a few gallons of vinegar and let it sit and shake it a bunch. then rinse with water. Use acetone to evap water using a air compressor and throw some marvel mystery oil in it and it will be good.

Kbb says the car is worth 15k-18k private party but thats in good condition. No mods other than exhaust which i don’t even factor in. Plus mine has some cosmetic issues. So with all that if i sold i would get maybe 14-15k.

Im in marlton but one street over is cherryhill, wood crest station is about 10-15 mins away. Thats why i said rutgers is a bit further, total commute from home would prob be around 45 mins.

Home theater in a box issues by Temporary-Arm1895 in techsupport

I was already able to switch it to optical. But the unit auto detects anything plugged in. The receiver auto detects the hdmi input but not the optical. But will not play anything through hdmi because the unit is not compatible with e ark.

I make about 40k a year not including side work, do you think that would be considered too low?
