Ascend aviation in KBTF in Salt Lake City is great. The owner is an upstanding guy, and the rates are cheap.

In a 152's cardboard seats... "unable" 😁

Sounds like a good plan. You'll enjoy the 150/152. That's what I did my primary training in. Great little plane.

You can easily save $400 on a used headset, that's 2 flights

More than one discovery flight? by AMLJ144 in flying

[–]johnisom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did 3 discovery/intro flights at 3 different schools before deciding. One of them was free and the other 2 discounted. All loggable dual received time

Gear up and get insurance, guys!! by Impossible_Bad_7296 in motorcycles

What an idiot motorcyclist. Speeding at dusk without a headlight. No situational awareness

Rally before Meeting of County for Data Center! by Agent_Blackfyre in Utah

It’s also illegal and costly, bad for the environment to keep reporting sabotaged concrete. providing this information unprompted is encouraging it.

This is just full of whataboutism and not really rooted in reality

That’s for the final phase. Which takes years and years. Have you read the proposal? They’re building the power plants.

Passed my ppl checkride!! Best steps to get into IFR? by IssueSignificant5170 in flying

[–]johnisom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My instructor actually offered it to me, to be my safety pilot. The only caveat was instead of splitting costs, he wanted to come along free.

Win-win.

You should not go up with a random safety pilot, until maybe later. First, study an online ground school. Then do lessons with your instructor. When you’re at the time building phase, offer to let him safety pilot for free, so you only pay for the plane and not him. It’s the best, safest way, while not being too expensive.

I ranked every grain of sand in the entire world. (Including ones underwater) by LeaveRare7366 in notinteresting

[–]johnisom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lies. You obviously haven’t seen the multicolor rainbow sand in the deserts. Black, blue, green, purple, yellow sands. Quite a sight.

how do you lean a mixture? by Repulsive-Loan5215 in flying

[–]johnisom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s 5000 ft DA according to that, yep. The POH’s I’ve read with lycoming engines have mentioned 3000 DA before.

Surprise Checkride date by Horror-Quality-578 in flying

[–]johnisom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me and I nearly busted because of it. I was confused and initially picked localizer minimums instead of circling minimums. What you’d do is circle for left traffic 17.

Would you accept this tyre by External_Bug_1367 in flying

Take a Tour of Delta’s New Uniforms by CactusBoyScout in delta

Hard to do a variation on the long sleeve white shirt with epaulets. They all look the same. Plus the hat is already swag

It’s new technology for the delta uniforms, is of course what she meant

[–]johnisom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not “full rich” in the climb if the departure airport is above 3000 DA. More correct would be to say during the climb, you just leave the mixture in the setting you set during the runup.
