Now I'm tempted to try this at high altitude to test it. Aztec C owner, single pump, at a sea level airport. Used to teach in an F model with two pumps. I primarily do multiengine training. I know that the pump does work with the engine at idle, but I also know that's not the question. I would...

Wait, eAPIS on the outbound, too? Suggested, or required? Also, @Ryan2, did you and I meet over this same question on the Facebook?

I file 135 and get only a little better at 23/23. But yeah - It'd be my bet.

It takes some getting used to. Take a pilot with you - then teach them stuff to prepare. take people at all levels, with the more experienced first.

y'all saw the video of the naked female skydiver?

Look me up when you do. I rent my 430W C172L for $60 dry. It's a pretty good platform to bomb around Maine in.

@Tarheelpilot , I flew a Husky - then as soon as I could, got into a Champ and a Citabria. So. FUN.

You are totally why I love POA. :)

People kept saying it: "Flying tailwheel makes you a better pilot." "I never really knew how to land a plane until I learned to land a tailwheel." IT'S ALL TRUE. Most of you know already, but I just found out. If you haven't yet, go do it. Run, don't walk. Jus' sayin'. R

Y'all saw the video?

yep, all this stuff. I'm learning lots. :) Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks, man. I'm going to have a conversation soon with the owner and will reach out to you with a private message.

Hi everybody, There's a small freight hauling outfit in the Midwest that has a steady contract, but is having trouble getting pilots. They're putting their planes up for sale really cheaply. There is an opportunity to continue the operation under their 135 cert. I am super tempted to buy the...

Yeah, it was definitely a "remain clear of the Charlie." I was still 8 miles from the TFR when he gave it to me. He sounded fairly young, and the next controller sounded pretty experienced, so I'm guessing that may have been the issue. Corpus isn't on live ATC, or I would've gone back to...

Mmkay, ATC question for the controllers in the group. (Tl;dr: what was the controller thinking?) -paging @Timbeck2 ! I've been talking to Corpus Approach for about ten minutes. I'm at about 1,000 ft, slowly climbing to 2k, headed 210. I can see the conflict coming, with the TFR to the east, and...
