    What Plane Should I Get Next?

    WHy not buy up market as a business expense. Effective cost might be a lot less. isn't 50% accelerated depreciation a thing? Or, just get any plane available as a first time fully responsible owner, fly until ready for more, certainly when you don't feel like you need a CFI onboard all the time?

    Whatever happened to Civility

    We need some basic society needs to behave lessons starting in elementeray school. Don't litter. Don't spit. Don't park in fire zones. Obey the police. Don't leave your sports bras or dirty diapers in the grocery store parking lots. We need to embrace holding people accountable for these...

    Balancing Moderation for a Thriving Community

    I'm not aware of moderation issues, not sure if I've been an offender here. I am recently banned from the bogleheads (financial)forum in a manner that I think was biased and unfair, but was consistently so over many years. I could either bite my tongue and continue, or just be myself and allow...

    It’s your checkride. Get the signature, do what you want. Why not strive to be in the 40%? Man, that would be something to talk about at an interview.

    What plane would you buy in my situation?

    I'm not sure how to answer this. I think a lot is learned as a first time plane owner, I certainly made mistakes or have regrets. But I would not change a thing. I went the 172 route, made a lot of needless upgrades, now in an RV10. I think a focus on a plane that fits 90% of the mission to...

    Cost to build a hangar

    We have considered a move. Some airport/airpark homes we have looked at do not yet have hangars. What might these cost to build for fitting 1-2 typically sized GA airplanes? Thank you.

    Fatal Crash at First Flight, 9/28

    I'm not understanding this any better with the discussion here. I need that YouTube ashhat that has crashed or been in crashed planes a couple times to explain things better to me, perhaps with banjo music!

    Hot starts and engine shut downs

    It's an interesting discussion because my engine manual has a hot start section that says "Because fuel percolates, the system must be cleared of vapor, it is recommended that the same procedure, as outlined in 3-2 (cold engine), be used for starting a hot engine". This is different than what I...

    Best plane for first time plane owner?

    Not enough info, can't be answered with precision. What time frame do you want to reach 1500 hours? How is your ongoing budget? I think you need to better flush out the info pertaining to a need for speed and passengers versus budgetary limitations. Will you become instructors? I think 130K is...

    Hot starts and engine shut downs

    I'm building out or personalizing my checklists and want some help to internalize and understand engine shut downs and hot starts. I'm coming from C172 where idle power and pull mixture was the shut down and the plane never had a tough time starting back up. I'm now in a bigger better plane...
