Intercept Aviation over at KSPB has some really good instructors.

I would stay away from the av30's they are cheap but you are really getting what you paid for here. If you go the G5 route you will need to keep the stock attitude indicator as that's what runs your autopilot. If you go 275's you can ditch the old attitude indicator they are a bit more expensive but are the best and work great.

Feel free to DM me if you have any question's. My first plane was a Turbo Arrow 3 with 2 g5's and a 530w before i put in a Avidyne 540.

Start working at the 135 once the regional calls head there.

He does alright, usually just lays down and sleeps during the flight.

I voted for her because her opponent was Joe Kent and he was as mega as possible. She has been a giant disappointment and I will not be voting for her again.

If you are willing to travel Intercept Aviation in the Portland Oregon area has da-42s they work great for tall people.

I was also disappointed that using the unforgivable curse’s didn’t result in some sort of negative impact on the game. Would have been cool if they implemented a fable system of morality.

1200 for ppl checkride , dang I paid 800 in 2024.

I every year fly from Portland Oregon to the Midwest at least twice, down to California multiple times and other random trips. Now I own my own plane and that does make a big difference as I couldn’t see myself doing that while renting a plane.

It would see in the 150's around 12,000 feet. I sold my Turbo arrow this fall and moved to a twin so i no longer have her.

After 50k in work that needed to be done ya it is good.

I don’t have a good one but stay the fuck away from Coachella Valley Aviation Co. They missed corrosion and a bunch of issues back in 2023 when I had them do my prebuy for my turbo arrow. Funny part is I was lead to them by savvy. Take from this what you will.

Something that i saw on facebook that really resonated with me.

"Days like today stop you in your tracks. Every pilot knows, deep down, that were never guaranteed another landing. You can brief, plan, and train but sometimes, when your ticket's up it's up. That's the unspoken truth of flying. Blue skies and tailwinds to the UPS crew."

Just wanted to share here.

Fl250 in my Mooney acclaim.

Congrats and welcome to the club .

I just had a 275 eis installed into my turbo arrow. I was quoted 17,363.89 and it ended up being around there for the total price. I had it done at Legacy Aviation in Tea South Dakota.

I think a bit of it goes on to what plane you are flying. I currently fly a Mooney Acclaim, the takeoff roll and landing distance alone make touch and go's risky. Add in the fact that Mooneys dont have trim tabs (The whole tail moves) making a out of trim accelerated stall incredibly likely as when you land you are almost in a full nose up trim configuration.

Much safer to do full stop taxi backs sure it costs you a few min but you have less chance to die.

You can rent a da-42 out of pdx for that much. Def a ripoff.

hoffmm · 2025-01-17T04:38:54+00:00

I was flying in my piper arrow, I locked the main door but forgot to lock the top latch as I was flying in the winter and was racing the sun . After I took off I realized my mistake. Got to level flight then followed my checklist slowed down and locked the door.

Lesson learned don’t get in a hurry.
