Planned on staying there on my way home from Florida a few months ago. Weather made other plans for us so we ended up staying in Nashville and just flew over Louisville. But, from my conversation with the FBO, they were as nice as they come, got us set up with a car, tie down and super...

And here some pics from the flight.

Back home after a (mostly) smooth evening flight home from business meetings.

All of my purchases were handshake deals until the actual sale e.g. I said “i’ll buy it pending pre-purchase”. That’s it. Once pre-purchase was done and satisfactory, we drew up a purchasing agreement (template i got from a broker), i handed over the money and took the plane. i don’t think any...

Most of us here fly in 50+ year old metal cans most people would consider worthless. I think we all can relate to the small market comment you made lol.

Wow, worked all day to not get replaced by AI myself one day, come back to this thread and it's two pages long! Anywho, to answer your question: I don't know and I think the talking heads in Washington don't either. The tech is too new and doesn't really fit into any of the current legislation...

Some of you may know, I have founded and still own businesses in the music space. Long story short, AI is absolutely replacing a lot of musicians. It already is. One of my businesses replaced nearly all of my staff with AI. Will it replace the Taylor Swifts of the world? Absolutely not. They’re...

Sorry, I'm out on the light. Wrong size for the base and my mechanic said he's not too sure if the base can be taken off legally to make it fit. His recommendation is, since my current old school light is working, don't fix what ain't broke and upgrade to LED when or if the beacon goes out.

The site is very slow since yesterday. my internet is fine. it’s just poa that doesn’t work.

Let me talk to my mechanic tomorrow morning when I meet him to install the landing lights and then I'll let you know ASAP!

I’ll take it once i find out what size base i need. i’m at the hangar tomorrow installing my LED landing lights. As soon as i know, i’ll hit you up.

There is nothing "beautiful" in anything that contains the the word "snow" or any variation of it! LOL

Or create your own company and give you the job you want ;-)

It’s 900 nm runway to runway for me.

I’ll second this. I do Florida to Ontario in Canada in the Comanche. About the same distance. I don’t have the tip tanks. I stop for fuel once on that trip. If i had the aux, i could do it non-stop, but probably still would have to stop as someone (and that someone may very well be me) on the...

I counted 3. One is at an airport that doesn’t allow training and if I go there, even for a missed approach, they’ll send me a $1,000 bill. That one is the nearest. The other two are ~100 miles away. One of them also has landing fees, about $25 per landing including training. The third one, same...

I have not fact checked my CFI but last time I wanted to do some simulated instrument training, I suggested to do some practice approaches. He said, sorry can't do with your equipment. He said we'd need a GPS. I asked what happened to my good ol' 1960s technology and he said all the airports in...

So that would be VOR navigation? I did consider this as a "backup" especially since I already have all of those on the plane, VOR, DME and they're working. Having said that, I don't know if they would be "legal" as a backup. My CFI said that this equipment would get me into only 1 airport within...

I get that. This is why i want the best unit possible as the primary unit. what i’m really trying to figure out is, how necessary are two gps units. if it’s just a Canadian legal requirement due to the large frozen tundra we have further north, i’d rather spend on a nice primary unit and go with...

I have a SL40 in the plane right now. Was keeping that one as a backup com. GTN650 + 175 might stretch it budget wise.
