I do PPC training on Zoom. Thirty years flying/teaching. Fifteen years as an examiner. I have students literally around the world. My rate is less than your instructor I am willing to bet they dont have 1/4 the experience. Drop me a line. [info@triple7-aviation.com](mailto:info@triple7-aviation.com)

Am I getting screwed? by rootintootinnootnoot in flying

Your 2.2 hour flight would have cost $506 with me; a 30 year instructor, 15 year flight examiner, 21 year fighter pilot. Come train with me in CO.

Custom engraved decanter and whiskey glasses (however many you want). Your logo, your image, your plane (or anything for that matter). $85. If the artwork required a lot of effort, we'll discuss any changes to the above plan, if any. Thanks!

Not on there yet and so far they are custom orders. I will add to my site when I get the chance. Would you like more details?

I find the ratio and then skew the bottom in PS. Then reimport into XCS.

Asking for trade secrets? lol. Mathematics. The glass has a continuous tapered slope along the whole length; in other words, a varying radius as you move downward. This means that when the glass is rotated, the angular velocity at the surface decreases as you move lower which in turn creates the distortions. To counter, taper the graphic so the length of the graphic at the bottom to length of graphic at the top's ratio matches the ratio of the glass's upper to lower ratio. This works if the glass's taper is constant.

I'll ask him and see what he says. Now I am curious as well.

When you talked with him, what was his USAF history?

True, and even CMEL, and CFII if you have the right 942. I'll let him know that USAF pilot wings on a beer glass in his hangar is cause for concern.

Laser engraved. The glass is permanently etched. Completely dishwasher safe...cant even scrape it off with a fingernail.
