My CPL written received a passing score, but not with flying colors, see below. The learning objectives were clear for both PPL and IFR Rating, but I found CPL to be a bit more ambiguous. Wasn't 100% clear on the topics that would get more detailed vs new ones added. I think I was a little...

I've got a few questions on this, so please chime in if you have experience or knowledge on this one. I recently purchased a Quad City Challenger II, experimental E-LSA. Looks like the FAA is and has issued several Letter of Deviation Authority (LODA) on these, so instructing becomes...

Drrrrrr......Good Point.

Thanks. The reason I ask is Im switching to an electronic logbook, and don't see the value in even logging the dual CC as a student PPL in the cross country column. This muddies up that column and could make it look fictitiously higher than it really is.

Tried searching the web for this and didn't find what Im looking for. Im totaling up my cross county hours and curious about the few cross country hours I took with my CFI as a student for my PPL. Since I was a student receiving dual instruction I assume my cross country time does not count...

It was both time and distance. Thanks for the replies.

The other day I was landing with winds straight up the runway 18G25kts flying a Cessna 172. Went to flare and floated quite a bit, much longer than I would have liked and struggled to prevent her from ballooning up. The landing ended smoothly, but I would like to know what I should have done...

I just recently moved to the Naples area and looking to connect with someone that is willing to rent their plane and/or do IFR Training. The schools out here are pricey and looking into club options. Anyone know anyone or paths to follow for connecting with owners/CFIs directly in the Naples...

Im about to take my first multi-state cross country. I will be flying from KUES (Milwaukee area) to KOXD (Cincinnati area) ~2.5 hours each way and I will be taking my IPad with Forelight and my Stratus II along with me. In the interest of back up plans I will be doing the old map routing...

Im open for the area as long as its in the greater Milwaukee Area. That farm off 94 isn't for sale anymore...as far as i know.

In yet another one of my entrepreneurial quests I've decided to take the airpark building concept a little more serious. I've met with a few folks at Sun N' Fun, Airventure, AOPA events, etc. Good conversations and seems like this process can be very ambiguous. I'm a little nervous about...

Hey Everyone, My wife had a great idea that I thought I'd get some feedback on. My goal would be to keep this extremely affordable <$50/week and make training more affordable and cover the costs of the equipment over time. The Idea: Create/Build a portable flight simulator that...

Looking for some advice on pursuing my IFR training. What's the recommendation efficiency for the IFR training? -Pass written test then start training? (This is what I'm trying now) -I recognize the difference between passing a test and fully retaining the knowledge and content. I'm...

Thank you everyone for the input. I agree with keeping the day job and pursuing CFI part time and seeing where it leads me. Makes the most sense for a multitude of reasons. Now I focus on my upcoming Private Pilot check ride and then diving into IFR training. Thanks again, very...
