I was super fortunate to have Blythe Danner in the right seat of the Phenom for a flight to KHTO. Just us in the plane chatting. Anyone else have some cool famous peeps right seating?

I have been flying a Phenom 100 for about a year, and am going to get a 300 type late summer. I was wondering home many other Phenom typed people are on here? The users forum for the Phenoms is great, at $250 a year, not so great.

I am flying a Cessna 400TT to Teterboro, and was wondering which FBO would be the best for a small piston single. Thanks. Oh and I already know that the 400 is like riding a bike on a busy highway going into that place. :D

I have a 296, and am wondering if there is an external (as in airframe mounted like a panel GPS) antenna for them. Most panel mount GPS antennas say that there not for handhelds. I figured someone has come across this issue.

So I just got done with my CFI, done initally in a multi-engine. I had gotten my multi-comm this summer, and decided that while I was profecient at flying a multi, why not do my CFI in one. It was interesting, cause no one, not the school, the FSDO or the DPE that owns the school had ever...

Well for some, you will remember that I reported a V-tail bonanza crashed. It was kinda big news, and I went to look at it a week after it crashed. When I pulled up I first noticed that the prop had its blades cut off. Sure as S^#& the grond has aluminum shavings. Ends up scrappers cut the...

I want to strip my Cessna 150 and repaint it this winter. I already plan on replacing all of the plastic (tail tip plastics, and so forth) and completing any experior sheetmetal repairs. I was wondering how much paint, and what kind you guys recomend? Stripper? I plan on removing the tail...

http://www.buffalonews.com/home/story/407646.html This is a small airport, known as North Buffalo Suburban. They were vacationing, and took off, got out of ground effect, then descended back down, then never got out of ground effect. They turned for the road that parallels the runway, took out...

I planned on getting to the show monday, but I am concerned that the GA Camping will be filled by then. Does the GAC area fill up monday usually? thanks.

I started my multi-training yesterday. I was wondering if I am able to log that time as the sole manipulator of the controls as PIC or not. My instructor said no, can you guys help clarify. Thanks for the help.

I have a 150L, 73' that has been slowley dripping fuel after top offs. Now after sitting for a few months its worse. I have to open the tank to check the orientation of the vent valve, and would just rather replace it. Does anyone know the fitting size for the vent valve. I assume its either...

So after some studying, many phone calls to the FSDO and paperwork, I tested and have an IA in my hand. And not too soon, the cessna needs an annual. I made the mistake of telling some friends at the local airport, and have a stack of 337's already that people need completed. I guess, its...

First let me preface this with a statement, At this time, I am just spitballing, I have NOT checked enough applicable regulations at this time to see if this idea is even possible. Ok, with that said. I am a 2,000+ hour Army aviatior, and a GA fixed wing pilot/owner. This summer I plan on...

Well as it goes, work happened to give me a Kestrel 4000 weather station. This little sucker does pretty much everything: temp, dewpoint, wind, altimeter, baro pressure, wet bulb, relative humidity, density altitude.................... and is as big as a small handheld GPS. I never thought of...

ok, so I've been an A&P for 4 years + now, but have 10 years experiance working on aircraft (helicopters, army type) and own a cessna. I really would like to get my IA, and have been studying for it. My questions are: How difficult was it to prove to the FAA that your worthy for your IA...

Ok, I am a IR comm pilot, looking to upgrade my crappy old gps. The 296 seems to the the cheapest one I can get that has the nice color screen. And being garmin it has the same menus as the 430/530 series that I trained with. Now my airplane of choice is the cloud bustin C-150, so were not going...

So I have flown a plane to Airventure 2 times, both hard IFR with IFR arrivals to the show. The aircraft was a friend of mines, and usually we leave the plan in antique parking, and sleep in the university dorms. This year I am planning on taking my own (C-150) and my Fiancee. Its our first...

The topics about the cost of time building has peeked my interest in helping if i can. Here in Buffalo NY I own a IFR c-150, nice dual narco digital nav/com and I am an A&P which helps keep costs down. I am buidling time, so why not build with some other people (skinny people are a plus) So if...
