And why.... Speed, Reliability, comfort. Interested in flying retractable gear airplanes and going to sell my Cirrus soon for one.

I see people do it all the time but I'm afraid to ask. Maybe this is the place for it. Thanks

Missed you guys over here, I hope everyone is well. I have been going up in an Ultralight these days. I like the new site. I wanted to fly but health reasons are preventing me from doing so. Still excited about Sun and Fun and I will go this year. Medical bills are kicking my butt, I will...

I would like to go up in a Mooney, if anybody has one how much would it cost for an hour or two? I just want to see if I can fit in the seats and fly comfortable. PS Also I would entertain other airplanes as well. Thank you

As a rookie, I have quite a few questions to ask. The flight instructor that I flew up with was mentioning that the school might close down in October, (Bayair in Saint Petersburg) so I will probably not be going there. In the meantime I would like to learn as much as I can while I find another...

I flew a Cessna 172S G1000 a few months ago and then I got into a Cirrus SR22 just recently in a flight club. Both conditions were perfect with viz greater than 20 miles. In my opinion, I didn't like the way Cirrus has the joystick on the left side like that, it just feels awkward. I thought...

For all of the experienced Pilots out there, If you had to learn all over again and get your PPL what kind of plane would you train in? Would it be a low wing plane or high wing? Once learned what would be your intermediate plane? Thank you,

Question: When you pass the written test does it expire after a certain amount of time? I checked the FAA website and I didn't see any information in regards to the subject. Thank you!

Hello to all of the great people on this site! I'm pretty much a newbie but I'm dedicated to learn about flying. Does anyone know of a good starter book that can teach the basics, (I don't even know what a checkride is). Instrumentation, Airport protocol, What to check during a pre...

Hello, I have been lurking around for a few days now and I decided to write. Becoming a pilot was always a dream of mine. I never wanted to fly a commerical airplane but I want to own a single piston engine airplane. What are the costs overall to keep and maintain an airplane. I do not...
