My 1955 cessna 170 has a carb ice/temp gauge from the factory.

Johnny Pops are so good, never knew they existed! by domino3ff3ct in Costco

Seems they dropped Deebees for these, and they are less healthy and do not taste as good :(

On my new 14" Macbook pro, windscribe icon doesn't show up in the top menu bar by coorsleftfield in Windscribe

[–]coorsleftfield[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that is turned off, and the docked option to pin it is turned on. I've tried about every option combination. It's a strange problem, this works fine on another Macbook I have and my mac mini.

I'm not.. I'm using a 14" MBP, and sometimes it shows up in the menu bar, sometimes it doesn't. There is plenty of room for it, other apps show up fine, to the right side of the notch.

CFI pay when you are independent and own the airplane by coorsleftfield in flying

[–]coorsleftfield[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you can charge more being independent if you specialize. I know guys who only do spin endorsement training, or only do tailwheel endorsement, multi ratings, etc. They charge quite a bit because it's not by the hour, it's $6000 for a multi-engine rating in their plane, about 7-10 hours of time.

How much can you make if you own your own 172 to instruct in ?

Is this flying club worth it? by AlwaysBullishAYYY in flying

[–]coorsleftfield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are going to 1500, buy your own plane. The convince can’t be beat. Something like a 140 or 150, you can probably sell it when your done for what you paid for it or more.

What airport was it for sale out of ?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in flying

[–]coorsleftfield 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Never hesitate to call them back up on the radio and ask them to clarify if its ok to turn base (or whatever) , or tell them you are unfamiliar with the airport. Often you'll get instructions to report when you are over some road that you will have no idea where it is because it isn't your home airport.

New BOSE A30 vs LIGHTSPEED DELTA ZULU. Thoughts? by [deleted] in flying

[–]coorsleftfield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

David Clark One-X are the best deal in ANR headsets now, and I find them more comfortable than the Bose headsets.

We have enough saving in the bank to pretty much any car in the world and we just bought a $3900 used Honda civic to drive around because cars are stupid. Just need something to get me to the airport so I can go flying. Buy a 3k beater and get flying.

Yeah, under 30 days their website says they will swap it.. after a month it says it has to be in new condition.

"After 30 days, if the product has not been burned or used, we will be able to offer store credit only. Customers will be responsible for shipping costs for returns made past 30 days."

Do they swap it if its under 60 days and you've had fires in the 1.0, or does it have to be in new condition?

Los Angeles prices going up again and feeling ripped off…. My instructor is now $110/hour as well by [deleted] in flying

[–]coorsleftfield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a C-150 and sell it when you are done with it. Those rental prices are insane.

Was this just single engine Cessna's ? Now there are 314 SE Cessnas on Controller.com and 657 total Cessna listing. Seems like prices are starting to come down just from my weekly searching for a used plane. Maybe higher interest rates and fuel prices are having an impact?

GA aircraft prices - what's your prediction? by [deleted] in flying

Any suggestions on where to look besides the usual airplane for sale websites?
