I see it now... I should've searched better before posting.

I just read that the FAA is adding another layer of complexity for student pilots. Apparently student pilot certificates will now have to come from the FAA after TSA background checks have been performed... as opposed to the traditional paper certificate issued by a DME. The article states this...

How did it end up working? Did the heater's thermostat help control overheating?

Just an observation... A fellow plans to fly 4-500hrs a year and hasn't considered a 182 (most would call the plane a commodity)... then sell in two years. That budget sure seems rather large for a 172/pa-28 as well. It looks as though someone is having a good laugh. I'm chuckling a little...

How in the world is this thread still going... it must be the title :dunno::rolleyes2:

You will probably be exhausted after the practical. That's probably not the time to add something new to your flying. Just a suggestion... take them up one at a time for the first ride. It will help them become accustomed to being in a small plane (if they haven't before) and seeing that...

I'd say it's never too late to bring power back in, even if you only need it for a brief moment. I once landed a 172 into some wake turbulence behind a dash-8 and the wings started to roll during the round-out/flare. Power is what got me out of that... it was instant and I'm glad my hand was on...

:yeahthat: The current system has been manipulated and conditioned to produce task attendees as opposed to problem solvers.

Great stuff. :thumbsup:

Have you thought about annual costs? How often are you willing to have your new wife "in the shop" for maintenance?

Congratulations!

I'm curious how you go about fixing missing airframe logs.

I was under the impression that we were in a buyers market. If that's the case, then a buyers belief would tend to carry some weight in regards to the value of a sale.

Scanning logbooks might cost a few dollars to have someone at a local Staples or any other office store take care of. It's not a big request... unless there's something the seller doesn't want you to know prior to arriving. I've made a couple trips that cost me a few dollars (and more...

I just hang a red headlight around my neck like a necklace. I can direct the light toward my kneeboard and charts in my lap and the light usually washes over to the instruments and switches. If I need clarity on anything... I simply use my hand to point the light. When I'm using the IPad...

Taken from the below NYT article: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/02/us/freddie-gray-autopsy-report-given-to-baltimore-prosecutors.html?_r=0 The Baltimore chapter of the Fraternal Order of Police, the officers’ union, defended their conduct [the accused officer's] and called on Ms. Mosby to...

Is shooting an unarmed man a criminal act? How about breaking a guy up while he's cuffed in the back of a van... the result being death? Common denominator?:rolleyes2:

The pot is going to be stirred by the media... that's kinda there job. That said, it doesn't change the fact that an unarmed person was shot and killed. The ones that did it will likely be given mandatory vacation as punishment. Is it really worth arguing how old he was?

+1 on the King material. It's hard to go wrong with John & Martha.
