Cloud Separation in Texas

IBTL ;)

Oh, and Congrats!
 
Congratulations!

Maybe I’ll add my name to that list tomorrow. My problem will be making it to the checkride. I have to go a pretty long distance for a tailwheel DPE and the hurricane is lessening the reliability of the forecast. If I can make it there tomorrow, maybe I’ll even pass the checkride.
 
Remember those cloud separation minimums for all VFR flight. Bryan Turner just passed his instrument checkride today.

This has been a public service announcement.

Someone is really ecstatic. @SixPapaCharlie , dude, we’re you that much of a pain to live with during training? Wise cracking aside, con gratchu effin lations
 
Congrats Bryan!
 
I was with the crowd when he exited the airplane. So we have additional live witnesses this isn’t a prank on his followers.

From the original “How to land a Cirrus” video that started the channel, now I’m looking forward to the “how to shoot an approach in a Cirrus” satire videos

Huge congratulations Bryan!!!!!

Does an instrument rating in a Cirrus come with a limitation that you can only fly in the clouds with a chute?

Congrats anyway!
 
Well done! Now get the Traveller sold and buy something real nice - like a Bo

Did he fly the check ride in IMC with the doors open, or did the DPE just make him sweat that much?
 
Why is this titled cloud separation? Cloud separation is no longer required.

The rest of us have to stay far away from the clouds to avoid the guy parachuting out of them all the time.
 
Saw title.

remembered the Three Stooges short on making turkey stuffing where Curly reads the recipe to separate 2 eggs.

been a strange evening. At the celebration tonight, conversation drifted to people geeking out over meeting internet CFI celebrities. I mention Josh Flowers and Lee Dix, and Bryan interrupts, “What is this Dix and Flowers you’re talking about?” and the rest of the table was off to the races riffing on that theme for quite a while.
 
HAHAH!

Yep. I accidentally got instrument rated yesterday.
it was really easy.

You should all do it. It will make you a better pilot just like me now :)
 
Best wishes for contact with soft clouds exclusively......

Does the instrument rating cancel out being a Cirrus pilot? Asking for a friend. Just kidding, none of my friends fly a Cirrus. Or exist.
 
Congrats!!

Now for the check ride satire video
 
I should be safe as I'm on the other side of the metroplex.... :D

So - what are your secondary / secret minimums that allow you to fly below the published minimums? I've heard that all you YouTube celebrities are allowed to have them....


And.... Did the DPE get the swoons and vapors, getting to work so close to such a famous Aviation Web Social Media Celebrity Influencer (I have no idea what all those words mean).
