    Cirrus checkout?

    I got my PPL in a 172 with 78 hrs and immediately went to a SR22 with Avidyne. My Cirrus checkout was about 5 hrs, but I was already somewhat familiar with the avionics from flying right seat with friends. I also agree that the COPA site is awesome. It's a great airplane, I know there are a...

    X-plane or similar worth buying?

    Thanks, but I'm not spending $7000 for a simulator. I can fly a helluva lot with a CFI for 7G's

    X-plane or similar worth buying?

    Unfortunately, there are no glass panel sims anywhere near me, so I'll be doing 100% of my IFR instruction in my plane. Is a computer sim worth buying for practice? and do I need pedals and a joystick and throttle to use Xplane?

    Toddler headset and portable 02

    I'm in the market for both, but not sure what I want. The boy is currently 4 months and will start flying soon. I fly a G2 Cirrus SR22 NA. As far as the oxygen goes, it will almost be a novelty considering I'm in LA and will rarely find an excuse to get up that high. Your time and suggestions...

    Help with learning the different approaches

    In your same boat using the same study materials, with the same results. My nearest flight school is an hour drive, 15 min flight, but I have a job and can't commit the time they'll want for a ground school. I'll just wind up memorizing the test like I did for my PPL. Hopefully by the time the...

    Insurance Broker recommendation?

    My partners and I (yes, that's how I can afford to fly the Cirrus) are looking to take the ac from part 135 back into 91. I'll need to get the insurance quotes, and also see if they are going to require that we be instrument rated (none of us currently are). Suggestions? I'm new here, been...
