Cessna announced today that the T182T Turbo Skylane is back in production. When I got my bird back in 2012 we didn't go Turbo because the performance wasn't needed for my mission and living in Florida. However for anyone who wants something new and wants the performance or lives out west, it's...

Not your typical "what's better" but thought it would be interesting to see the split amongst the plane owners in here. So which do you own or primarily rent? For me its a high wing.

I am getting ADSB installed this year at my annual, the plan right and schedule now is the GTX345. Recently I've been looking into it a bit more and spoke with garmin directly and apparently updating your existing GTX33 transponder to ES (extended squitter) to comply with ADSB Out is an option...

So I’ve been house hunting recently and have been considering moving to a fly-in community and living with the plane. That being said I’ve weighed my personal pro’s and cons on the situaion, but I was wondering if any of you do or ever have lived in a fly-in? What are your experencies and...

Who's planning on going? Assuming I can bid it off, which I think I should be able to, I'm planning on being there the 14/15 (Sat & Sun), possibly the 13th too. Anyone else going to be flying or driving in? If I can make it it'll be my 9th year in a row flying in.

Today I took a day trip with a friend down to Ft. Pierce (KFPR) to check out the National Navy UDT-SEAL Museum...and it was awesome. I've flown to KFPR a lot and have driven through many times and have seen the sign for this museum so finally decided to take a trip down. Flew into FPR, parked on...

All the posts and threads on this forum got me wondering what the real answer is, so I figured I'd ask. Discuss That is all.

hat was everyones highlights for Sun n' Fun 2017? Figured we could get a thread going with some good pictures too from the event! Flying in of course is the best part, but my highlight is always the night airshow, I think its just a unique event you don't really ever see. Also hopped in some of...

So when Cessna first started the 182 JT-A project it seemed like a cool idea that could have some good integration and uses, I was looking forward to checking it out myself. Anyway fast forward as we all know they dropped the project, but my question is what happened to all the JT-A 182's that...

So I was thinking about flying down to TIX to visit the Valiant Air Command museum. I was wondering if any of you had been there? About how much time would one allot for it? Also for parking would you just park at the FBO on field or is there parking on the ramp by the museum? I would call and...

I'm sitting on my couch drinking a pepsi. It got me wondering what do most prefer. I prefer Pepsi out of can or bottle much better, UNLESS its a fountain drink then I prefer Coke. So i figured I'd get a thread going and see everyones thoughts.

Official announcement is out. the G1000 NXi to go into the Cessna/Beech piston line (besides TTx) so the 172, 182, 206, Bonanza and Baron. Seems to be the first significant change to the 172/182 in quite a while...

browsing Facebook and just came across this, guess there's an SR20/22 series Generation 6 coming out. I wonder what it will entail....any ideas? I'll admit when I first ordered my 182 at the end of 2011 I wasn't too impressed with the Cirrus, then they had the G5 some other tweaks here and...

Anyone flying their planes anywhere exciting for new years? Where ya going?! A few of my friends and I have been flying down to the keys for the last 4 new years, and this year is no different! Going to spend a nice 6 days down there. In any case I was bored earlier today and decided to make...

Browsing the web and I saw that the 2017 AOPA Regional Fly-Ins were announced (link at the bottom). Looks like this year is Camarillo, CA (KCMA) - Apr. 28-29 Norman, OK (KOUN) - Sept. 8-9 Groton, CT (KGON) - Oct. 6-7 Tampa, FL (KTPF) - Oct. 27-28 I'll probably go to the one at TPF, its a...

So with all this sUAS stuff coming out, I figured I'd go ahead and get mine and do the course now, while its fairly simple before it becomes more complicated some day in the future! Plus its free and who knows, maybe it'll some day come in handy, worst case I spent some of my time on it and have...

I was reading another thread where someone was mentioning book speeds. This got me wondering, how is your bird compared to the book? My 182, which I've done no modifications on, runs about 5 knots faster than book speeds for any given power/weight/temperature/altitude combo, while still burning...

Who all will be going to Sun N' Fun this year? It'll be my 7th year flying into the event, I'll be flying my 182 - N291JD in with two good friends. I'll be going on Saturday April 9th an departing Sunday April 10th.

thought it would be interesting to see what company aircraft the people of POA own, if you own one. I've obviously missed a few brands in the poll, but I think I hit most of the big ones! If you've got something not on the list share it! Also if you have more than one the poll is set up to allow...

Is there or has there been a Pilots of America logo sticker/decal, (the logo in the top left of the screen)? I would love to get a few, one for my flight kit, some others for some other places. If this is made can someone please let me know where to get one? If they don't exist someone should...
