    Owner Operator

    Hello all, I'm curious if anyone operates a charter service with their personal aircraft? If so, is it done privately or do you use an FBO/charter company?

    Hi all, I am almost finished with my PPL and wanted to hear from all of you how long/hard getting your IFR rating was. I don't want to jump right into it but I would like to work towards it in the near future. Any advice on how much VFR time should be accumulated before taking the step into...

    Helicopter license after PPL?

    Hi all, So I was talking with a pilot friend of mine and we were talking about how he just got his helicopter license. He has flown fixed wings for some time now and decided to jump into something different. I'm just about done with my PPL and want to entertain the idea of maybe getting a...

    Owner/Operator

    Hi everyone, Brand new here so go easy on me! Basically, I'm curious if you can own your own aircraft and rent it out for charter, but pilot the charters yourself. A few of us are considering purchasing an aircraft in the future but would like to be able to rent it out to offset some...
