    Kind of a Dumb Question About Landing/Parking Fees

    The "kill 'em with kindness" guy (too lazy to quote) seems to have a good premise. I might just as well land and do what I need to do. If I get charged, well, I get charged. I could also just call and ask ahead of time just to see what happens. Judging by the guy with the 150 who posted earlier...

    People frequently come on here and ask for money? That's hilarious.

    Kind of a Dumb Question About Landing/Parking Fees

    Not complaining about the $10 landing fee. That's inevitable. I'm not even complaining about the parking fee. Just trying to sidestep it if at all possible because I'm cheap. tl;dr: No, we are not.

    Kind of a Dumb Question About Landing/Parking Fees

    I might just be carrying a Gatorade bottle... I might be a pilot, but it doesn't mean I'm not cheap. Hahaha that actually is kind of a funny question to ask them. Kinda like trolling them in a sense haha. I reckon, though, from where I'm flying I might need to buy some fuel. Plus, it's...

    Kind of a Dumb Question About Landing/Parking Fees

    Hey y'all, I'm thinking about flying to KACY just to see what it's like in Class C airspace. I know there's a $10 landing fee, but I see Landmark charges for parking. Ideally, I just want to land real quick and taxi to the ramp to "park" (and maybe pee) so I would need to get a departure...

    Buying a House

    Not sure what a PCS is... I'm super handy, so a bit of a fixer-upper is not a bad thing. My department won't be moving anywhere soon, and if they do, it'll be like last time where they just move to a different building on the other side of town.

    Buying a House

    Thanks for all the advice, everyone! I ended up finally solving it with her. We came to the conclusion to just wait a while and try not to bring up the subject for a while. It'll be good for both of us because she and I are in two different places right now. To be honest, I was worried more...

    Buying a House

    Again, some good points are being made in this thread. Many thanks! I do like the idea of living out in the country. I think I'm just a bit immature yet. This is our first year living together, so I'm still getting used to the prospect of a house and marriage and everything. Yes, I know that's...

    Buying a House

    We aren't looking in D.C. proper by any means. We're talking about Sterling and further west. Even Lovettsville popped up. The only problem with living so far out is that it's fa, heh. Many of our friends still live close to the city, and I don't think many of them will come all the way out. But...

    Buying a House

    No need to be sorry for giving what you deem scary advice. I want and need to hear it all so I can make an even more educated decision. I would be perfectly happy going with a $250K house. She and I don't have kids. We have a dog, a cat, and a bird (I don't like the bird). She works from home...

    Buying a House

    Thanks for the advice so far, everyone! Commuting will only be an issue once a week. By the time we would go through with buying a house, I would be working from home all but one day of the week. So, I don't mind commuting that one day. Although I'd love to move back to Raleigh where all my...
