Here's mine: Back in 2006 I had chartered a turbine otter along with 3 others to take us up and land on Denali (highest mountain range in North America). For 3 days we were on weather hold. Finally I get a call that if I can be there in 15 minutes I could go along with some people I never...

Hello All, My good friend has a great flying Cessna 172A (1960). He would like to switch to a "ram horn" yoke with a PTT switch integrated into it, as well as a thumb rest. So what does this entail? How to go about it, the options, costs etc (as well as any FAA mandates lol). Thanks...

Unfortunately one of my flying friends recently had a stroke. We hope for a full recovery but it sounds like some "left side" body functions will not return 100% (or worse but we are optimistic and hopeful). Does that mean he will lose his medical? If he loses it due to stroke what would it...

Well I finally took the time to scan in my PawPaw's (my Grandpa) photos. He was active duty WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. His career as a pilot was mainly flying C130's. I have no information other than what you see in the pics as he passed away a few years ago. I hope you enjoy the pics (I have...

I have been looking for another bird and came across a 1953 Cessna 195. Big radial engine plane, taildragger. Seems like it could give a beaver a run for the money? I never saw one before, can anyone elaborate? For the record I don't have an interest in buying it, just never saw one and...

Your thoughts? I thought her landings were not good enough to solo but that is my humble opinion.

Well I'm still looking for another plane and have narrowed it down quite a bit. Although the budget allows for more plane, the insurance companies won't', and that's probably a good thing. So I'm going with one of the following: Cherokee 140 (preferably w 160 hp upgrade), Cherokee 180 or C172...

I just wanted to give everybody a heads up on a little gem we found yesterday. My "uncle-in-law" Scott and I flew from my home base MJD (Picayune, MS) and we're headed to GAO (Galliano, LA) which was the furthest south of any airstrips around here. Scott wanted to see the marsh and bayou...

It seems to be a recurring theme . . . maybe I'm wrong. What does the forum say??? I'm a fairweather flyer (that doesn't mean I'm not going to get an IFR just in case though!) and never HAVE to be anywhere that bad. I prefer to wait it out. So what do you guys thing is the leading...

Yeah so I can never look at my C150 the same, and as much as I LOVE C172's, and probably will end up with one, and should from a LOGICAL standpoint: I was RUINED by a flight in a Mooney 231 today!!!! Cruising at 150 kt and 12.5 gph really got my attention. Next thing I know I'm passing an...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Selling 150L buying something a *little* bigger your thoughts? Due to a recent job offer I reluctantly accepted I will have to hire someone to manage my lodge and fishing charter business in Alaska. That being said I am thinking about selling my little C150 in Alaska (I would only be able to...

Midair Collision in Oregon yesterday 10/25/2011 Anybody have more details? http://www.cnn.com/2011/10/25/us/oregon-plane-collision/index.html?iref=allsearch Hoping eveyone is ok!

I would like to find out more about my grandfather's flying career in the military. He was active duty pilot and flight instructor in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. He NEVER talked about it (being in the military). But I was told an interesting story by someone who flew with him that randomly...

Hey everyone! I'm getting close to check ride time. The plane I rent down south is FINALLY back online. So one more cross country should put me where I need to be. What is the best self-study ground course prep you know of? My CFI(s) there's been two (one in Alaska, and one in...

Well, this is a two-fold plea for advice. I will try to keep it short and sweet. I am a student pilot. My Dad will turn 65 on Dec 10, 2011. He would like to make a parachute jump off the strut of a small plane (182?) and I would like to be at the controls. Now before you say you wouldn't do...

Is foreflight only for iphones? If so what is the consensus on the best aviation app for android phone? I'm running a motorola X phone. I also would like a yoke or dash mount. So what is everybody using??? (Please describe the whole setup so I can copy it :D) Thanks -Rob

Hello everyone. My name is Rob Hankins and I am really glad I found this forum. I stayed up all night reading on here about different things. Lot of great info! I am currently a student pilot w/ 14 hrs logged. I partnered on a C150L to learn in. My flying so far has been split 50/50...
