    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

    maybe flying just isnt your thing. . . .. . lol

    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...

    Restoration cost - rough idea?

    really depends on plane - this applies for paint, exterior, etc. Paint is running about 25K (sometimes more, sometimes less) for a single engine piston. Some have flown it south of the border to get cheaper rates (probably less EPA/OSHA issues). But it isnt as easy to just spray painting. If...

    psychiatrist or HIMS psychiatrist

    Interesting that the most knowledgeable person on this board is telling you exatly what you need to do and you completely gloss over it and just ignore it with another follow up saying how new you are and dont know how to proceed. . . . Literally read your previous message and follow it. Now...

    Feathering on power off. GTSIO

    Not the OP, but my guess is its a Cessna 421B or Cessna 421C. Those are essentially the only ones running the GTSIO engine - unless you count the new Tecnam P2012 of which they are the only ones running and not sure if any GTSIO engines have been delivered in that configuration.

    Looking for a DPE within a reasonable distance from Northern Virginia

    The three I know of - John Phelps (West Point ? ), Bryan Smith (Richmond ) and Steve Martin (Newport news) that you may want to contact.

    First plane for family of 5

    Interesting. Maybe different types of planes ? Maybe a trainer on the twin type ? But overall - yes I agree with you. But surprising on the lower twin cost. Would have expected that to be the same at the minimum or higher without any time. That being said - the insurance industry has lower...
