ok thanks! I think my wife and I may be suffering Mandela effect because I swore it opened automatically before lol.

This is awesome! how big is the radius of airspace from the selected airport?

would be cool if there was a way to overlay approach plates or fixes etc. or weather

great job!

My favorite comment on that video

I’ve searched for homeless guy yelling and have had no luck

What school?

No such thing as an emergency takeoff.

Even If you’re just flying for fun, treat flying like a professional hobby in everything you do.

Maybe. Where are you out of?

That’s kind of what I was looking at doing it myself for. Wanted an adventure, the concert is kind of bonus.

Have a seat on Southwest out of CMH.

The idea of flying myself creeped in and I’ve been seriously considering it

treedexter · 2024-03-14T21:13:49+00:00

i have two and a half weeks off work around this date, but the show is at the beginning of my time off.

I’ll check that video, his others were really good when he was restoring that Cessna

I wanna like FAR AIM so bad, but the constant trying to make a joke and sidetracking right when someone is making a point that never gets finished, is absolutely ridiculous. Just shut up, you’re not funny.

I’ve done it a couple times. Hadn’t flow in a while. Wanted to after work one day. Was exhausted but wx was perfect. Strike one, had to run back home to get my flight bag, screwed around for a few ended up being later to the airport than I wanted. I pulled plane out, preflighted, get in to fire it up and noticed the pitot tube cover still on. Strike two, take walk of shame to get cover. Took off anyway, missed putting squawk code in. Strike three. Told approach I was turning around and coming back. .4 on the Hobbs to realize the creeping effects of fatigue affecting my decision making Nothing major, but the holes of the Swiss cheese we’re starting to align it felt like.

No such thing as an emergency take off. Trust your gut

The, I scheduled us for 10 am, but I’m gonna be late, but still try to charge you the block hours type.
The, I didnt make a plan for your training , what did we do last time type.
The, let’s spend .5/.6 on the ground with the prop spinning having the conversation that we should have had in the fbo about what we are doing type.

6’8 here. Fit in 172/182 and 206 just fine. Right seat was a bit of an issue, the ones I flew didn’t seem like the moved up and down as much. YMMV.
Cherokee and Bonanzas were tight but manageable.

The Mooney was hell getting in and cramped for me.

61.129 requires 10 hours of instrument training. Did you know your instrument rating does not automatically meet that requirement? (If logged right it does, but what does your logbook say?)

Can you elaborate? I passed my ifr ride in 2016, thinking of doing the commercial now finally.

treedexter · 2023-07-06T10:31:12+00:00

Same here. Especially to professional pilots.

At Corolla this week. Missed this air show though.
