    New IR student- what's your best IR tip?

    As someone who will hopefully be certified to send students chasing after clouds this Sunday I would say it depends. For me at least. I would take into consideration the student, our objective, my own personal minimums, and if the IMC conditions were related to any weather that would constitute...

    The ten highest maintenance dog breeds

    I don't agree with all of it. Some of the high energy breeds yeah, but not enough of the kind that are a general pain in the butt to keep in proper condition instead of walk every day. My family used to run sled dogs and we have several malamutes. We have 1 of the long haired version and oh my...

    For those familiar with KAPA, the bonanza is on a trailer over by the key lime hangar.

    New IR student- what's your best IR tip?

    I'm going to toss out several, take the ones you like, throw the rest back! Remember that IFR flight is just a series of graceful corrections to altitude, airspeed, course, etc :) . Be smooth with the airplane and don't stop your scan even when you see deviations. My major problem beginning...

    CFI-I books/articles

    61.195 (c). unsure if it used to be different or when the change happened.

    CFI-I books/articles

    Lol. Well aware, thanks though :) And no, I'm not doing the I-I initial. I finished my commercial multi last, so I decided to do MEI as the initial while it was all fresh.

    Three IAC Sequences

    I want to learn so badly. Tail wheel and some basic acro! I think it would be neat to compete some day! But I'm far from owning an airplane, and I won't be able to afford too much extra flying for awhile probably. I love your videos though whiff, it was especially neat to see the actual IAC...

    ForeFlight 4.5

    Downloaded! Can't wait to try it out. Alton?! Michael Symon all the way! Although I was forced to watch way too many Good Eats episodes in college, his quirkiness and the added science info are quite entertaining.

    CFI-I books/articles

    Hey all, I start my CFI-I training next Monday, and I'm a bit of a voracious reader. So I'm interested in any articles, hand outs, or books you know of that specifically talk about or are geared towards the instrument instructor. So far I have my materials from instrument: instrument flying...

    April 14, Denver, CO -- Take An Aggie To Dinner Night

    Thanks for having me guys. It was a good dinner. As a plane nerd, I could have sat around those conversations all weekend. Nice to meet all of you!

    Minimum XC PIC time before starting Instrument training

    I fully agree with getting some x-country seasoning first. Especially as much into busy airspace as soon as you are ready/if that's feasible. At least always be on flight following to talk with controllers. I did it part 141, and considered myself lucky to get 7.something hours actual during my...

    April 14, Denver, CO -- Take An Aggie To Dinner Night

    So is it tonight? At 6:45 pm? Is there still room? Do you mind if a new guy comes? I had held out just because I had wasn't sure if I'd have a check ride today and wasn't sure if my mood would be positive or negative. But I'd join for dinner. I'm at the Ramada so I think I can find it :D

    Florida flying

    In Venice you can get a free shuttle to the pier and eat there. I think it's called Sharkey's. Decent food with a cool view or the ability to take a stroll down the beach/pier before or after your meal. I see CJ Cannon's is on the list already, but I can vouch for the average/ok food there...

    Class D and ATIS vs ASOS

    Cost would be my guess as well. I know that airports are funded via combination of Fed/Local money, but beyond that I'm pretty weak on how this works. How is it decided that an airport will get a tower, become class D,C,B, or move up/down a class? Is it simply based off money available or is...

    Cleared thru Class Bravo!

    I queried as well and was told they were the controlling agency, so they can do what they want with it down to the minimums of the agreed upon restrictions (I think down to 1,000' or 1500' agl even though the TFR goes up to 3,000' IIRC). One of the approaches for Kissimmee goes right through...
