Hertz will guarantee a vehicle type and then when you arrive tell you they don’t actually have that type. That drives me nuts. I’m considering Touro now.

Gear doors were open. Center system Hydraulic issue?

I had to seek a doctor’s note for an interview that said my total cholesterol was fine as the ratio of LDL/HDL was good. At my interview physical (which they no longer do) my total cholesterol was 115. It’s been low ever since.

Anecdotal here, but I haven’t flown with a better bunch of new first officers than I have in the past few years. Someone is doing something right in the hiring and training departments at my employer.

It turns out the rules were pulled from their site.

If we could just get some good investigative reporting from, say, Aviation Consumer on this. Oh wait, they’re owned by Flying.

Something is really odd. They aren’t responding to any questions of “who won” on their Facebook page promoting the raffle and the original website was taken down. Anyone at Sun N Fun witness the giveaway?

I’m a headset junkie. I think I’ve tried nearly all of them, including clarity aloft and faro as well as the Bose A20. The Delta Zulu’s CO monitor can save your life. No other headset can make that claim. I used to fly with a CO monitor when I didn’t forget to bring it, or forget to turn it on...

That’s it, I’m moving back to Washington, where my dad used to have a Stearman. Where was this plate then?

Great Barrington trains in a J-3. Not sure if it’s flying currently.

Great thread here. I used to use a portable CO monitor but would forget to turn it on half the time. I’m absolutely LOVING the Lightspeed Delta Zulu headset which records the CO levels that I can look at after the flight to see any trends.

While in formation, it’s a good idea to run rich for that period if you’re having to maneuver in place. If you’re lead, then lean as normal.

They appear to have better visibility than Foggles.

Not really. He’s saying once the music stops, if you’re in any seat and not out on furlough, it can be a great gig.

Jeez, were you in my new hire class? The exact same thing happened to me.

I think you can only deduct up to $10,000 of those property taxes now. For me, the standard deduction was $13,850. I did 27 hours of volunteer flying in 2023 but didn’t bother itemizing as I wouldn’t reach the standard deduction either. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had a Flight Design CTsw and loved it. Flew from New York to Seattle and back. The return flight took 2 days. The autopilot made it very relaxing and fun. Fantastic range and great efficiency. Parachute was a bonus when flying at night.

Quite a bit easier than installing a gas station at home.

Steve Hinton would have been my first choice on the day they came up with the award. Impressive gentleman.
