Just saw the news on this. Not much details available. Flightaware.com shows it as an IFR flight. His track looks somewhat wobbly to me so not sure if he was tired that late or his instrument flying was lacking. Will be interested to know what ntsb finds out.

We had unusual company the other day. It got very windy while the were landing.

No the AD is complied with. But they did a **** poor job of assessing things during the annual. No issues on the left side but on that flight I found the right side not locking properly. It should have absolutely been discovered during the annual. Its all fixed now for sure.

So the annual inspection ended up being $5500. I lost my temper with the FBO and just about got fired by them because as he put it "nobody wants to work on something when he's called a liar, a cheat, and dishonest ". Ended up having a talk and agreed to move on. What is done us done. The prop...

Flying with a buddy of mine in his C182 last night. 4 miles out before we enter the downwind poof everything goes black. Pitch black inside the cockpit. He is freaking out a bit. Ok just fly the damn plane. There is a reason why we practice no flap landings and do all those things before we...

Ha. That's the only friend I have. I am here to make friends. I probably should have more than 1.

Ouch! That's what he said he bought it for.

Get the best you can afford. I dont mind spending money on my wife and kids but when it comes to myself I am cheap and stingy. I have this rich friend who always has to buy the latest and newest gadget. He has the A20 bose headset that he bought in 2023. I said I'll wait till he gets tired...

This 48 year old is one of those guys chasing the 1500 hrs and running away from the healthcare sector. lol I am hopeful I make it because I freaking love flying. Like I want to fly every day and all the time. Just hit 666 hours and averaging about 15 hrs/week which I need to bump up but my...

I was doing steep spirals while this guy was landing. So cool.

But was it harder and more work than getting my 3rd class?

For clarity I don't have A/P. I flew the old beat up 172 during training. now I fly an old beat up c150. lol neither has AP. I have racked up a bunch imc time solo. I can hand fly it fine in imc but it gets tiresome after 15 mins. a month after getting my ticket I was flying ifr back home from...
