When I was a kid, I was afraid of horses. How could those giant animals allow us puny humans to crawl up on their backs and ride them? Over the years I have owned over 20 and have two of the most wonderful paso fino horses that my wife and I ride every where. I would have missed out on a...

If it is not your plane, your student or your son, stay out od it.

That was a pretty big custom banner the CT was pulling, but for my purposes it is looking like a 150 hp Citabria pulling letters, if only there is a system like shown in the video that would be perfect. You don't need a stick crew.

That is fantastic, do they drop the banner before landing? Being pulled by a CT light sport no less, amazing!

Thanks CT4ME, by the way, after your post about the light sport I asked about a Skycatcher, I checked out the CT, it looks like the CT is an outstanding airplane. If I ever decide to go light sport, it would be number one on the list right now.

Stumbled on this practically in my back yard, thoughts? http://www.controller.com/listingsdetail/aircraft-for-sale/BELLANCA-CITABRIA-7GCBC/1976-BELLANCA-CITABRIA-7GCBC/1227557.htm?

A smallish banner puling web addresses. A 172-180 would be perfect! As it would kill two birds with one stone. Does it have to ne a tail dragger?

I fought it for years, finally had back surgery, wish I had done it years ago. It was great. I lived on Tylenol liquid gels 4, 3 times a day with meals plus you need to be as thin and fit as possible. Now I feel great, no problems at all. You will miss 3 to 4 months of flying at the most.

What airplanes make the best banner towing planes? I own an advertising agency and have a need for one several times a week. Plus with plenty of commercial pilots in my area I am exploring the possibility of buying one, any advice? I would not mind using it to get my intrument ticket in it as...

Did you buy the warranty too?

You will be hearing from the FAA before your next medical, they will be notified of your arrest. They will prompt the action.

The Glasair ii sportsman looks really nice! I have never, ever looked at home built until starting this thread. I had no idea they were that nice, fast economical. All my time has been in a 172. The purpose of the discussion was comparing the cost of an older plane plus ongoing...

Schedule Master, specifically designed for booking aircraft, great program.

What is insurance like on those planes?

Well, there are Skycatchers on the market with less than 100 hours or $100,000 and they are Cessna. CT, even though being an excellent aircraft, you wonder about dealer support down the road. I do think the future of general aviation is light sport, with the cost of 100LL being what it is...

Really? Why?

It looks like ultimately, for me, the turbo 182 RG, would be my perfect plane.

That is my point, I had a 2003 172SP and with full fuel and three adults we were at capacity. Most of the time my wife and I fly some place for a long weekend. The 162 takes us to most places we went in the 172 with one fuel stop. But, as I gain more experience I would like to go faster and...

Just throwing it out there, with interest rates low financing 80 percent of a new airplane that will do 70-80 percent of what my mission profile would be compared to a 182 that would take me to 90 percent and I have a feeling that repairs and maintenance would equal those monthly payments. By...
