    T-Hangar neighbor. WWYD?

    So I can inconvenience people as much as I desire, as long as it is something I do a lot?

    I don't know for sure, but I suspect that if, say, the 20 year old student was also physically unable to close the door without help, no one would have an issue with it, either. In other words, it has absolutely nothing to do with age, and everything to do with the "why". It's the assumption...

    First airplane purchase PA28 Help

    I am sure that the Archer I flew was performing at book numbers when I flew it more heavily loaded that one night, as it always hit book numbers or extremely close to them every other flight I took in it. I am also sure that I have no desire to experience book numbers at max gross and high DA...

    I flew a Hershey Bar Archer like you are describing for my private training, and I don't think I would recommend it for the stated mission even though I loved flying it. Unless you all average under 130 lbs a piece and don't bring any type of baggage, it will not climb well in any type of heat...

    [NA]Microplastics; the latest thing to worry about.

    Finally restarted my flying lessons.

    I understand wanting to be exact and control as many variables as possible, but to be frank, I think you are thinking about this way too hard. At some point, you should be able to transition to barely even noticing the numbers and just fly the plane down to the runway - and I actually got...

    What's For Dinner?

    I am too persnickety about my groceries to order them delivered, but that sounds convenient! Do you get to choose what meals you eat or is it pre-determined/random? I made us lasagna for tonight. I was supposed to make garlic bread to go with it but forgot I didn't have proper bread for it and...

    What's For Dinner?

    Yum! In the simple, easy, good vein, we had tacos for dinner. And then I started craving chocolate... I tried a new recipe for brownies which turned out superbly. They came together super quick and they were the perfect mix between fudgy and fluffy...brownie heaven for me!! The tricky part will...

    @Crashnburn , has your instructor taught you slips? That sounds like a perfect place for a slip, and it solves your altitude problem beautifully.

    Checkrides cost how much? Really?

    How is the FAA utilizing their experience in jets to test private pilots in single engine spam cans and why should having a rating for a totally different type of plane command higher prices?

    Checkrides cost how much? Really?

    If you want to know, it's all upthread somewhere. I'm not going to rewrite it. Yes, it's a skilled position. I think they deserve to be paid. But being a DPE doesn't require you to have a jet rating or even a day job, so what they get paid to fly jets is rather immaterial to the discussion. It's...
