I was getting dressed last week and at the exact wrong time my knee gave out a bit(I think the bath mat moved but cant prove it) and I pulled a muscle in my back on one side. Cue the pain and slow walking since. Getting out of my car is comedic to everyone but me. I have been asking people on...

LL22 in Downers Grove, IL is having their annual fly in. Small airpark, but its usually decent. https://www.ll22.org/annual-fly-drive-in

This weekend (June 3 and 4th) is the annual plane show at Clow. Decent planes to see. https://cavalcadeofplanes.com/

I have zero need for any farm equipment, but this was a interesting read. Thought I would share. https://cowboystatedaily.com/2023/03/20/big-bud-worlds-largest-tractor-at-70000-pounds-is-back-after-40-year-break/ The high-horsepower articulated tractors were some of the biggest and baddest in...

Is there a way to search TAP, Controller, etc for certain items without clicking into the ad itself? Say, I am looking for a plane with an AP. Or it having engine time less than a certain amount, or years since OH? I am ok with clicking into ad's, just wondering out loud if I am missing a way...

Is it just me? TL:DR- Looking to buy a plane. Cant make up my dumb mind. Mission- Local flights under 100nm or sightseeing- about 70% of the time. Usually 2-3 people Trips over 300nm the other times, usually 2 people. Or 2 adults and a child. So, 3 people and luggage, or 4 people useful...

I went and saw Devotion last weekend. It was decent. Solid C movie. Acting was a little strange, with lots of pregnant pauses in the conversations. Showcased the Corsair, and mentioned how it compared to the Bearcat. Some of the flying scenes felt very CGI. I don't know how much of the...

There is a Mooney that checks all the boxes for me, and it has TKS. http://aircraftownershipsolutions.com/inventory/1986+mooney+m20j+201+n5813f/938 If I never use it, does it go bad, both the equipment and/or the fluid? Does it increase insurance? If the plane has it and even if I never...

Disney created a movie called "Frozen" to stop people from getting search results on Walt. Mattress companies are money laundering schemes. Who needs so many mattresses that there is a need to have a store everywhere? Finland doesnt exist Keith Richards is an alien.

Looking at the next money sink, I mean plane, I thought I would see what short Mooneys are priced at. Looking at this one, the engine times looked odd. The description says a gear up at 92 hours and at 88 hours. Poor plane. 65 M20E , 4980 TT , 1080 SMOH , 108 Since tear down inspection...

https://onemileatatime.com/air-europa-hijacking-scare/ It’s now being reported that the reason the pilot accidentally squawked 7500 was because he was explaining to an “intern” what the transponder codes are for. Oops. Well, I think it’s safe to say that the “intern” now has a pretty good...

I am doing my semi-regular trip to the middle of Ark to visit my dad. I usually fly in and then head someplace new. This time I am thinking of heading into Nashville. I am not a bar person (crowds), so any info besides that is appreciated. I havent booked any hotel or looked at which...

My plane is in annual. On Nov 6th they found that the battery box is missing the STC. Long story, lots of raised BP about that. So on Nov 6th, or even call it the 7th, my shop ordered the correct STC from the STC owner. It is now the 19th, and still no ETA on when it will be shipped. Its a...

I have been listening to podcasts more and more when I am not doing Audible books. I am always looking for new ones to listen to. What do you recommend? My list- Tim Ferris- I like his interview style Jocko Podcast- So many are just military but the other ones are good Bill Burr- He talks...

Always on the hunt for cars a little different, unique and fun, I have been looking at Volvo's recently. Mainly around the 2003-2007 era. Anyone familiar with Volvos? Online forums dont show anything crazy about them, but I always like to hear first hand experiences. I figured POA would tell...

In the last episode of Archer, he is trying to figure out if he has enough fuel to get the next island with a paved runway. So he pulls out his E6B and does the math. I couldnt find a clip online just yet. I thought it was good and entertaining. But no else in the room did..

LIke Eman (is there a Ewoman?), I also got a call from a man. Some of the things he offered me was a hangar. Now I have bare hangar that I need to fill. What is a good list of stuff? I already have a vise, fridge and a workbench. And yes, a plane. The hangar has heat and power. I need a...

I am probably going to stop at KAWM on my way back from my annual trek to visit my dad's grave this Friday. I have never been to Memphis, and will only have one night stay. Anything I should do/see? Any recommendations on an airport if KAWM isnt a good choice? I will get a room near downtown...
