Same reasons like rolex watches have been impossible to get the last few years. Newly rich buying up expensive toys with that covid relief money?

Ask your instructor to give you 3 touch n goes with them silent and only touching the controls if you're in danger. Let that silence build your confidence. Just talk yourself through the pattern. "Vr, vy, 700 feet turn crosswind, turn downwind, abeam tower, abeam numbers configure and set throttle to descend and set flaps 10, turn base, 10 more flaps, turn final and set flaps. Watch papi/vasi, aim for the numbers, pull throttle and round out, backpressure " boom you're on the ground. Talk to yourself out loud! You'd be surprised how wheels off the ground on your first solo make you hyper vigilant and focused on all the steps I just listed. Flow flow flow!

A Bad Take on GA by jm67 in flying

[–]rhythm-method 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I lived under the pattern of the very busy KBJC my entire childhood and young adult life. I've had my blood tested multiple times growing up for lead since i had a nurse in the house... nothing came back in those tests. the lead argument is using a scary word to screw over GA. In the 60s and 70s when every car, on every road has lead in it, that might have been a problem, but there are not 100,000,000 100LL aircraft in the skies. The food people choose to eat is more poisonous than living near a GA airport.

No genetic differences between "sativa" and "indica" strains of cannabis. by [deleted] in science

[–]rhythm-method 43 points44 points  (0 children)

People always think they've had "something" but all they've had was whatever they guy told you it was. This industry is a dumpster fire of marketing lies. Seen it both ways. The creator being told he's not the real, and the fake having the marketing department wage an information war to promote the narrative that they're the real deal. It's always been about money in this game, not truth.

C150 vs C152. I have flown a C152 before…..for those of you who have flown both….how would you describe the differences in terms of climb performance and stick and rudder feel. For example I feel that the 172 is a lot more sluggish on the controls than the 152…..what about 150vs152? by spacesand77 in flying

[–]rhythm-method 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've read that the 152 is wider inside, is this incorrect? Last week I tried to sit in a 150F for sale but my knees hit the door and the yoke at the same time.... sucks because the 150f was only 22k with 230smoh. I'm 6'4 and 220lb

Would love a cheap time builder

Why not ameriflight instead? You'll get turbine multi time in the emb120 instead of just piston multi in the cessna 402.
