    Flight Plan Filed -- Told to Expect Different Route

    you can do a vfr departure and then pick up your plan somewhere further along the way. They still may route/re-route you as well. And in busier airspaces, they may not let you file a pop-up, so best to have one in there. In the northeast - in the busy NYC corridor it can get a bit tricky as...

    Insurance Companies

    sort of. . if you are serious, and you've already done this - the broker has to be willing to get you to docusign (or fax sign) to change the "broker of record" at all the places he plans on getting you a quote, and then wait for them to correct and edit it in the system. Technically I think...

    How does a GTN and GNS combination work?

    Think long and hard about this. . If you go ALL avidyne - thats fine. If you have a GTN, and then add an IFD series navigator to save the 3k installation cost, you'll end up paying more with the two different database subscriptions. . . It makes no sense to have a GTN and IFD unit in the...

    How does a GTN and GNS combination work?

    be very careful. You will need to be at the same navigation for both the GNS and GTN units for this to work. Not sure if Garmin onepaks will include the GNS and GTN units on one subscription - though Jeppesen does NOT. So its subscriptions for the GNS and GTN units if you go that route. But...

    No delay

    No delay means - go now and not wait. It doesn’t necessarily mean speed up per se but I’m sure that would help. . I would still look and be on the lookout when crossing any active runways

    Multi- Engine Time

    for insurance - depends on the type of plane and seems to be critically so - the amount of retractable/complex time one has. Ive seen insurance not quoted many times for people with limited complex time. But generally if you have a decent amount of complex time (not sure if thats 100+ or 200+)...

    Multi- Engine Time

    There is a big difference between insurance allowing someone to fly the plane between an aztec, baron or king air. Without knowing what plane the insurance company is requiring time in - i dont think your comment of 10 or 15 hours and being to fly a multi is relevant. Try your I have 10 or...

    Hims Psychiatrist Test

    Depends on what it’s for. Without more detail - kind of difficult to say. But generally the FAA prefers its own docs and their word over external docs that don’t have anything to do with aviation. But again - this is generally and not for all things

    ForeFlight data updates

    you dont need to "pack" for your flight to get the charts if you have them all set to download. If you have states turned off, then yes "packing" will download those states that are not current on your ipad.

    Pursing Career as a commercial pilot at 27 with DUI.

    The 0.18 will put you in dependence category. Your first hurdle is going to be getting your medical- which the doc has previously said will require abstinence, regular AA meetings, 14 in 12 months random drug testing and regular visits with the HIMS doc. If you get your medical - then yes -...

    Wire vs synthetic rope; hangar doors

    most of the top (certainly schweiss) have all gone to straps. So instead of the 1/4" wire cable, they just use 3" straps I think (strap size depends on the size of the door is my guess). You might want to look in to that, but you'd probably have to change out the rollers, etc. If you are...

    HIMS process hell

    Choices were made. What led to it might not have been controllable - but there are people who choose not to drink, never to drink, or even rarely drink. Thats like saying no one ever chooses to be a heroin addict. Uh - how did you get to that point ? I agree with everything said here. And...
