    Pet Peeves

    The word 'peruse.' The popular definition is the exact opposite of the actual definition. Just don't use it at all! Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

    When was your first scare?

    During my ppl training while doing pattern work in a c-150. During a go-around I didn't push hard enough and nearly had a departure stall. Airspeed got really low. Luckily I felt the stall coming and got the nose down. Lesson learned. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

    They look cool, and everyone knows that looking cool = more flying magic. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

    Beating the airlines

    Assumptions: Same destination airport Airline flies nonstop Arrive at the airline departure airport 2 hours early Arrive at the ga departure airport 0.5 hrs early. Airline gate to gate for 1000 miles is 2 hrs 30 mins (ex swa 1996 ict to las) Dispatch reliability is no factor Cost is no factor...

    On the step...

    Nice expirement! Since all 3 cases have a climb at steady 500 fpm to start, I suggest starting the stopwatch while in the climb about 100 feet before the target altitude, to remove some variability. More data! More flying!

    Am I allowed to do a touch n' go at an airport then depart?

    If you are on any sort of schedule, DO NOT start a conversation with any other pilots. [emoji6] Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

    Are Pipers dogs?

    This is Apollo. Looks like a Piper, but he prefers Cessnas.

    I'm a certified expert. The community is one of the best, there's most likely a local user's group you can meet up with. What do you want to do with it? Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

    You all act like it's totally normal for a guy to be dangling under a helicopter. [emoji50] Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

    Logging aborted take offs.

    Only counts if after the wheels left the ground you made a flying move. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk
