I purchased this iPad Air from the Apple store in February of this year to begin my instrument rating training. However, given the changes at my work and need to put flying on-hold. I have used this iPad very little only a few hours per week and I am very gentle with all of my products. The...

Thanks for you input. I was under the impression that I had to take the full practical test including the oral portion. This is why I asked the question on which way to get started with all of the ground work again. It looks like I just need to go an get some practice on some of the...

Hi All, I used to be a CFII and I want to get back into teaching. It has been over ten years and I need some advice on where to get started. I have to retain the practical test again but looking for suggestion on possible courses, DVDs, books to get the ground work done. I am thinking of...

Went to TGI this weekend from GAI in Archer. We were originally going to fly to N74 (Penn Cave Airport) but the weather was MVFR/IFR in the morning. It was very nice flight overall. We flew on the right side of R-4006. A little cross-wind from the east for landing on RW 2. There were 4-5 other...

I have been doing some local flights out of the DC area but are looking for some suggestions. What are some nice airports and places (close to the airport 5-10miles) to visit for day trips up to 150-250nm from the DC area? Thank you.

Here is an update. I casually stated to my CFI that he forgot to sign his name in my log book for the past few flights and he was surprised. He said that he must have forgotten. He finally did sign and provide his CFI # to all entries and completed the back of the log book for BFR. I just need...

Thank you all. I will ask him to sign the log book next time I go up. Just curious, what can I do if he refuses to sign saying that the flights are not instructional but reviews? Will the log time count towards my total hours?

I have decided to get back into flying after many years. I took a discovery flight and now have gone up for the second time for more landing and some air work. I also updated my medical. Here are my question. Shouldn't the CFI sign both of the enteries that he added in my log book as dual...

Here is my story. I was 19 when I had my CFII, and like you I always wanted to be an airline pilot. I did not have a college degree and was struggling with my career options. A few months after getting my CFII, I dislocated my shoulder and was out for six months. During this time, I did some...

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I am surprized that there are not enough clubs in the area. I am planning on flying 5-10 hours per month and a club sounds better than FBO since they do not have min. hours per day. I am hitting the books right now trying to get up-to-speed. Cheers...

I am a little North of DC in the Gaithersburg area but I don't mind driving a hour or so if there is a good club, members and hourly prices :)

Hi Everyone, I just discovered this forum and have been busy reading. I have decided to get back into flying after being away for a very long time. I have been searching for a nice club to join the DC, MD, or VA area. I would love to fly taildraggers and/or 4 seater plane to local areas and...
