    Vehicle Wraps [NA]

    I had a great wrapped professionally in the past. A black car will be cheaper to wrap. Then you have to decide if you want the jambs done as well. I think i paid 3k for the job and it was Avery Denison product. Held up really well and I would do it again in a heart beat.

    Plane crash on FL freeway

    Anyone else seen the 604 cockpit demo of the right seat pilot reaching below the throttles to arm the T/Rs or what ever the switch is. At the same time the pilot in the left seat is pulling back to idle. The safeties engage on the right pilots forearm and allows the throttles to clear the...

    Pellet grill

    My wife bought me a masterbuilt for my birthday last year. I had never heard of the product before. She did her research and I'm very grateful for that. Best cooking experience I've had and all my pellet grill buddies want to use my rig because it tastes superior. I could never use anything...

    Apple To Reportedly Launch An Unnamed Foldable Device As Early As 2026 To Replace The iPad mini

    I've had 3 different Samsung devices that fold. Including both 1st generations of the flip and the fold. I couldn't see the crease on any of them as the user. From the side the crease is very apparent but straight on its invisible. It is a superior form factor that's why Apple will...

    Best accessories for Mini iPad 6: Screen protector, cases, and mounts

    The screen is made of glass. Unless you're using diamonds in your cockpit you should probably be safe. I've never had a screen protector on a phone or tablet and I've never had a scratch since phones screens went to glass over a decade ago. I just put the iPad in a backpack and it's good to go.

    Are there pilots who've never used paper maps?

    Your scenario is probably equally true. The thread is about flying without paper though. I feel like the old guy would just go flying without the charts. As a matter of fact, I know old guys who can still make a plane go places without moving maps and ipads.

    Are there pilots who've never used paper maps?

    If you had no chart it's ok to cancel. My scenario has the genZ pilot with any combination of TACs and sectionals and they still wouldn't fly.

    Are there pilots who've never used paper maps?

    I would say 90% of pilots in training today would cancel their flight if their iPad was dead and all they had was a paper map to reference. The need the moving map because they have only known it that way.

    PPR and Landing Fee Nonsense Again in Vegas for Superbowl

    The general tax paying public doesn't care how much an fbo charges wealthy pilots. Don't forget you I your little cessna are far and away in a better position than the general tax payer in this country. You don't like the price, don't pay it. Just don't act like tax payers even care

    Pilot Career Question

    Not so fast. It's not as easy to get hired as it was the same time last year. Make sure you know exactly where the industry is and then throw away all that you know about the industry. Things are changing every day. Just do your research before jumping in.

    Cool Photoshopped Photo

    It's just a Citation X sitting on its tail from snow accumulation on the horizontal. Not the first CE750 to flop on its tail, won't be the last. Not photo shopped at all.

    All three Las Vegas airports will charge a $3,000 landing fee during F1 races

    Left at 10 am today. Very busy FBO but there wasn't any kind of gate hold or "call for engine start". It was a very pleasant experience all things considered. I expected madness.

    2-pilot crew ("dual Captains") - logging "Signing" PIC vs "sole manipulator" PIC - Part 91/135

    If I'm in the left seat and I'm making all the decisions, I'm logging PIC regardless of the paperwork.

    All three Las Vegas airports will charge a $3,000 landing fee during F1 races

    I know who goes to the event. I fly the planes to Miami, Monaco, Spa, Austin. I've seen it and lived it.

    All three Las Vegas airports will charge a $3,000 landing fee during F1 races

    If they didn't hit you with a fee, we would just fly in and out all day and do drops. That's a lot of movement to cover with the extra workers amd equipment they'll have to truck in. Gotta cover that cost somehow. Supply and demand seems like it's in full effect. They are just lucky they...

    All three Las Vegas airports will charge a $3,000 landing fee during F1 races

    I think 3,000 is too cheap. I say charge 10k for these bozos to land. They are still going to go and write the whole thing off. Might as well make as much as you can off of them. I'm going to be flying in for the race so I have a dog in the fight. Maybe if they charged 50,000 to land I might...

    European Skyvector/VFR Maps?

    You have to pay for ice in Europe. No way they would let you look at the charts for fee.

    Do You Wash Your Wife's Car?

    Looks like the first day you brought it home from the dealer. it still has that goofy shipping protector on the air dam. If my wife left that on her car I certainly wouldn't wash it.
