    TFR's for empty stadiums?

    I flew through Chicago last weekend and the stadium TFRs were active..a pilot inquired, ATC didn't know, but came back and said yes they were.

    ORD

    I didn’t think they could force you to taxi to the FBO to pay at a public airport. I’ve always done full stop taxi back at larger airports. Guess I’ve been lucky with ATC so far. :cool:

    A&P / Avionics in San Antonio TX

    84R. Smithville airport. SWTA is a Mooney Service Center. JD is a straight shooting guy and does both. Wouldn’t go anywhere else in the SA area.

    Looking for A&P in Louisville, KY Area

    Congrats on the new plane. I keep my Mooney down at Elizabethtown (KEKX). Don't venture too much into the Louisville area. I know they have an A&P based here but don't know how much they work on Piper's. Venture down and check out the field.

    Insurance rate shocker

    I just got my renewal quote from a different company for this year's insurance...a decrease of $1200. After state taxes, the difference is $950-1000. My renewal from the same company as last year was same rate..no increase. Luckily, I shopped it with a different broker and I'll take a $1000...

    Review: Budda Belly vs Gojo

    I had the same thing happen with two bottles of PlanePerfect. It was in my plane in the hangar in a carrying case and had product spray/leak out. It was dried up in the bottom of my carrying case. Wasted product and was gone...

    Oshkosh - 2019

    I flew in Sunday evening once the airport opened from FLD. I flew the Ripon/Fiske at 2300/135 in my Mooney. For me, I felt it was safer than trying to manage the airspeed and spacing at 1800 with all the other traffic. I probably would have gained on the traffic in a blink as 90 5 miles out is...

    Oshkosh - 2019

    So I’ll ask the stupid question...you shut down, run out, put the plywood down then start up taxi on them and shut down again? Or can you just pull the plane on the plywood on the grass? It make it much heavier/harder?

    GNS530 cards

    I just spent $700 on the US nav database for the 430 and 530W. I have the Jeppessen reader which won’t work with the Garmin updater. Had to buy the $70 Garmin one. I have the silver cards so hope I don’t have to upgrade those to the orange ones now. :(
