Have no clue about the cost. But for a Malibu, does it fall into the "if you have to ask, you can't afford it"? LOL

Agree somewhat, don't let the AGE of the CFI make your decision for you. A 27 year old CFI that has only taught for two years, may have done more spins than the 50 year old guy that has taught for years. See the reaction when you ask about it. IMHO, the cfi that says LETS GO, impresses me...

Well a Cessna 195 is referred to as C 195. Not sure why it would be on a marker though.

You need a Cherokee 6. It is a tank that can carry a huge load.

No I didn't miss it, but what does that have to do with having a CURRENT medical or not? There is nothing that stop someone with a 3rd class medical from doing the same thing. I understand what you are saying about changing the rule, but changing rule has nothing to do with your argument and...

Anyone that thinks someone should die because of their thief lifestyle is obviously not a follower of god and should beg for forgiveness. For all the hatred he asked others to do, I hope god can forgive him.

So someone with a medical won't take the same antihistamine and crash the plane? I don't see the point in your argument? What does taking an over the counter medication have to do with changing the current system?

The BEST job I ever had I started at when I was 17 and worked there on and off till I was 27. It was a SMALL family owned "amusement park". It was western themed and they put on shows. "gunfights". It was quite fun to tell people when they asked what you did "I am a professional gunfighter"...

For me, it has always been flying myself for pure enjoyment. If I HAVE to get there, it is commercial.

No Joy! Are you a disabled vet?

From the LIMITED amount of information available and being a disabled vet myself, I conclude the following: The Vet OVER REACTED to the entire incident. Yes ADA can come into play, but IMHO "reasonable" is a two way street with both the disabled person and the "other" party. It SOUNDS/LOOKS...

She looks nice I got my ticket in a 150 and took me 1.5 hours for the checkout in the rental Cherokee. You won't have any problems. Just watch the ground effect, a little more in the Cherokee than in the 150l

only thing I know of is to try skyvector

Other than actually getting in the plane, a tall guy can fly a T. As for the electrical part of it, get your hands on an old ELT battery and just wire up an intercom system to it. For the radio, get a handheld you can tie into your headset. I learned to fly a T with a guy that was 6'6 and...

As others have said. If you don't like it, speak with your money and go someplace else. Pretty simple really.
