    New career - A&P

    So you make your own job....hit n miss and hope your family isn't on welfare. Cool if you can make it....but it's very rare. GA mechanics are dying and have been since my dad got a clue in 1980. There are a handful of successful outfits out there specializing in their aviation trade. But if...

    KRAL best airshow ever??

    ok...ok...ok.... Before you get your POA panties all bunched up....wasn't the best planes to see. But I watched the whole show from the tower and the cat walk. I've been to a ton of air shows ...but this perspective made it almost magical...even if it's considered low rent of air shows. Thank...

    Little planes over big water… would you do it?

    Another classic POA discussion. All you really need to know is when the engine quits would you rather be eaten by a bear or a fish. Personally I prefer being fish food. Not sure why...but that's my opinion. Yeah you might get lucky over land or sea....and actually survive. But don't count on it.

    N/A Cat/dog flea/tick treatments

    The active ingredient is Fipronil. That's what your looking for. Like generic drugs it doesn't really matter what brand it is as long as active ingredient is the same as well as percentage of the dosage.

    PA32, 210 or Bonanza

    No..... And we should also add....your not going to find a 206 within the OP budget that is worth a sheet. There is a reason why 206 command a high price. You won't ever lose on a 206....just got to step up to buy one. It fits OP mission perfectly except for price.

    Oddlly 100% of those who want gun control....have a convoluted ideal that the weapon somehow fired without any human interaction. Oddly 100% of all gun deaths required a person pulling the trigger. Work on the trigger man....not the method. LETS MAKE THIS REAL CLEAR....THE 2nd AMENDMENT...

    Not Very Smart

    To be honest he was right. If you were smart you would have said.... "No, the strongest ones are on the Snap On truck....based on the price they are the strongest ones in the world!!":D

    You all need to become more educated about adiabatic cooling. Take a class with Robert Fovell.

    NRA message

    Oddly it is 100% your right to bear arms in America. Oddly it is 100% your right in America to find a different country to live in and are free to leave anytime. Oddly Freedom doesn't guarantee you 100% safety.

    running FF my ipad overheated

    I never use any device with 100% brightness. Turn off auto bright and adjust brightness down a bit.(maybe 80-90% in bright daylight) Helps with battery life too and have never had an overheat issue. You will be amazed at what 10-20% less brightness does for power consumption. Also agree...

    Lucky

    Moral of the story is a Pulse Oximeter won't help you without a quality CO detection device. We all know aviation is expensive.....yet we find cheapest ways to supplement what I feel is one of the most important pieces of equipment in your aircraft. Excellent post to the OP. Gets everyone...

    Air Asia Black Box info

    I guess all us pilots would consider avoiding Asian airlines at all costs.... But if business gives you no choice.....how far are your nuts up inside your body cavity and how much does your sphincter hurt when you get off the flight? I'm sure it's not a pleasant experience.

    What to do?

    Corporate aren't 365/24/7 pilots.....they do have specified days off. Unless they are complete idiots to work for with unreasonable conditions....I'm pretty certain he will be able to continue his CFI job as a side to not only earn more but to increase hours.
