1) FIGMO? 2) They had jets when you were 12?? (I kid!) 3) Good luck, and I hope to catch up with you again next time!

Just got to the hotel. Mike, I'll send you a text, but you both still up for tomorrow? Is the Hard8 north of the field the same as the one in Coppell? What time do you guys (and anyone else in town) want to meet?

I can do Tuesday. Name the time and place.

Sounds like a plan. I'll let you know NLT Monday morning if I think I'm going to need a ride. It shouldn't be an issue, I don't think. Who else? Spike? Troy? Wayne? Dave? Anyone else around that night/week?

Ok, so apparently I'll be near DFW. Monday works for me. Anyone else around then (or any other night)?

:rofl::yes: Can't say i didn't warn you!!

CRAP, that's what i get for working nights this week. Dallas. Definitely Dallas. I THINK we'll be near DFW. Wherever FlightSafety is, that's where I'll be! Nice catch, Spike, thank you!

Who's around? I'll be in town all week for work. My days will be pretty tied up during business hours, but after COB I should be free. I'll have semi-limited access to a car (mini-van...ugh), but a terrible sense of direction, so if y'all want to meet some where it needs to be either a) on...

RVR/reported visibility dictates whether or not you can start the approach. Once you're inside the FAF, vis reports don't matter anymore (until you're ready to takeoff - C056, if memory serves). Were you legal to start the approach? Can you now see the runway? At or above mins? Will you...

+1 Unless I'm in trouble with my wife or mother. Then it's Matthew. Or jackass. My son likes to call me ajdns okjko k kljh llhbvljhv ouwbqu nwpajsdb. He's seven months, so I think the "hew" still confuses him.

220 to 1 mile final?? Even LaGuardia doesn't usually expect that!

When it comes to helicopters and money, I don't think it's possible to exaggerate.

If you only fly the R44 for .7. It books at $500/hr alone!
