I got a Halo set for my wife. She loves them. I tried them and thought, dang... these are better than any thing I have. I had tried a CA set but one of the wires pulled out and one side didn't work. I guess they would be OK if you babied them but I like how Halo has the tube carrying the...

I voted other... all of the above. I fly every chance I get, to family's, travel, fun, etc....

I just bought a Mooney M20C. Gotta learn to fly her now. Exciting times!!! Complex, here I come!

I am selling my 160, by the way. I just don't have the time to keep them both in the air.

I have gotten to the point of hating myself when I click on this guys threads. Thing is: I might put one of these in my plane one day but it won't be from him. Don't know why, just is.

My story is similar but different. I lost my wife of 28 years back 2008. This girl found me and her son-in-law turned me on to flying. I now have a Cherokee and I bought a Mooney this past week. I have no idea if I am ready, just over 100 hrs total. But I couldn't pass up this deal on the...

You simply cannot detect hearing loss until its' too late. Agreed, don't be that guy! My grandfather was nearly deaf from all the machines he had worked over the years and he said, "It's a horrible thing not to be able to communicate with the ones that you love."

I use FlyQ as well on my Ipad mini. I tried a few others and just prefer it. I have additional apps for weather on my phone and Ipad mini.

I just bought a cabin on a lake...Hmmmmmmm

I am in the process of buying a lake cabin. I can't afford upgrading my plane and the cabin. Common snake eyes... Daddy needs an upgrade! I am calling my stock choices a huge as gamble but they have to support my plane habit. My work will pay for the cabin and upkeep but an upgrade? Not...

I tried a set of CA's that my son-in-law had and was wanting to sell. One side didn't work. He sent it off and got it repaired and has since sold them. He just wasn't found of the in ear style and I wasn't buying something that had been used a dozen times and already broken even if repaired...

She is taking them in Starkville http://kartaviation.com/. My wife may not ever go for her license but she definitely wants to solo and then who knows. I called RAS several times. They never answered or returned my call. They had the FBO in Starkville as well before I started flying...

My wife has started lessons as well! We both are excited.

My first inspection was under $1,000 and that included findings. My mechanic left so I'm searching. I have settled on my next guy. I guess I better actually get a quote

You do know the emergency landing protocol for night landings. Turn your landing lights on, if you don't like what you see. turn 'em back off. :eek: The air is smooth and it can be some of the most enjoyable flying, but unless you have a lit up city / airport near you... you screwed if you...
