    Accelerated PPL Training - References Needed

    FYI Tailwheels had a fatal crash before they went out of business. So did they just reopen under a new name? http://www.kathrynsreport.com/2017/05/cessna-150m-n714dw-incident-occurred.html...

    Accelerated PPL Training - References Needed

    How expensive? What stuff might I need besides headset, E6-B, CX-3, plotter, Jeppesen student pilot kit, kneeboard(s), iPad with ForeFlight. Obviously I will need current sectional charts but what else am I missing?

I think Kingsky maybe their new name? https://www.yelp.com/biz/tailwheels-etc-lakeland I called Kingsky, they seemed very accommodating and seem to have very good reviews. I am very likely going to try it there. I am a bit skeptical but my plan is to go there and...

    Accelerated PPL Training - References Needed

    VSC, I am very interested in Kingsky as well. The web site paints a nice picture with housing and all. Have you found anyone with personal experience with them using their accelerated program?

    ASA, King, Sporty's or Gleim?

    No mention of Dauntless? I used Dauntless Ground School, for my written PPL, and missed one question (98). I also purchased Sporty's learn to fly and concur with dmspilot boring monotone videos, the information is there but very boring. Tried the sample vids from the King's, almost bought theirs...

    Blood in Eye (subconjunctival hemorrhage)

    That is very similar to mine. Went to the eye Doc and he asked me a bunch of questions about recent activity. His conclusion that is was due to long periods of heavy eye strain.

    Going tonight after work, everything I read its "likely" not a big deal, but going to err to caution.

    Blood in Eye (subconjunctival hemorrhage)

    I know it likely is not related, but I flew on Friday and again On Sunday, about an hour each day, highest altitude was about 3000' AGL. This morning I woke up with the white part of my left eye red and very bloodshot to say the least. I do not have any conditions IE hypertension, Anemia...

    Night time landing light failure

    And the FAA wants pilots to use the landing light during daytime hour TO & LNGs "Operation Lights On" and while flying below 10,000 all the time? http://www.faraim.org/aim/aim-4-03-14-209.html (page 209 sec 4-3-23 par c)

    Bose A20 or Lighspeed Tango

    Thanks all, the A20 are coming in Monday of course I am flying the day before. Currently I use the ASA flight school set which suck and cut out all the time. I think I will stick with the A20, supposedly I can test/use them for 60 days anyway and return if not happy.

    Bose A20 or Lighspeed Tango

    Low Air pressure in tire

    I have just as much information about his abilities as he has about mine. And since nothing but smart mouth sarcasm comes out I feel the need to return it in kind. That's all, he could be a very competent pilot or he could be a complete idiot. But if he flies with the same "ignorance" and...

    Low Air pressure in tire

    It wasn't meant as an accusation. Not sure why you Salty insist on posting, you never have anything worth while positive or constructive to contribute. Just useless dribble, do you have a deep seeded need to validate yourself?
