    Good job man! I like hearing stories of going against the grain not having 100% of family or friends initially behind you, only to prove to yourself and everyone else that you are more than capable to become a pilot! Now what? In time get your instrument rating! Don't stop learning and training!

    That's some good info for sure! The 2020 rule I'll have to bite the bullet and spend some cash. In my thinking I'll save up and upgrade my panel if I decide to keep the airplane by then. Still not sure if I want to go faster with the 360

    Finally got her back in the USA

    Flying by the numbers 100mph final, It will settle in over the tdz and float a few hundred feet. I get her shut down within 12 to 1500' it's not too bad, but yes she is slippery no doubt. My decents are usually pushing 200kts, it's just an all around fun plane to fly really. And the best part is...

    Finally got her back in the USA

    As long as the aircraft you want has all the build logs, and is currently Airworthy in Canada it's pretty easy. In my case my a/c was originally built and certified in the US, the. Sold to Canada, the guy flew it for a few years and kept all the logs and docs. So all I have to do was fly it...

    Finally got her back in the USA

    It's a far cry from the Mu-2's and ATR's I used to fly, but it's built straight and clean, and does 170kts at 6gph.

    Hey Ryan thanks for the input, I do already have an iPad 9.7, I'm going to subscribe to Forflight, for 200 a year seems like a deal. Will I need an iPad with GPS/Sim card or will my standard 9.7 work?
