    SF260

    Does anyone have experience in the SF260? I've searched the forum and have seen a few posts suggesting it's a good plane, but nothing too detailed as far as personal experience. I'm looking at the plane for both solo/one-passenger xc's and aerobatics. I'm fairly low time at 200 hours, but have...

    530W Updates - Need Two Adapters?

    I've seen a few threads on updating Jepp nav data, and the requirement for the Skybound Adapter in order to do so. However, I couldn't find any information on the Garmin options. It looks like North America Nav-Only from Jepp would be $550 vs Terrain/Obstacles/Nav from Garmin at $500. If I...

    IFR Checkride Complete

    It's taken a while wrap everything up, but as of yesterday, I scared an examiner enough to get him to punch a hole in my certificate. I started in January, taking a couple weeks off work to try to fast-track my way through the instrument rating. Everything was going smoothly other than being...

    KSKF - Low Approach?

    I'm going to be flying out to San Antonio tomorrow night and was thinking about asking San Antonio Approach for a low approach to Kelly Field while I'm in the area. Honestly just think it could be a cool experience to add to my logbook. Does anyone have any recent experience with this request?

    College Station "city tour"

    I'm planning on taking my cousin up for a bird's eye view of A&M and haven't quite figured out how to put together the request for "flying circles around the best school in Texas". Requesting a "city tour" doesn't seem quite right, and I'd like to stay around 1500, which would have me loitering...

    Commercial "needs"

    The thread I started for GA "needs" has had some great input so far, and I realized that it might be appropriate to ask the same question with respect to commercial aviation. Commercial aviation would be referring to anything that requires a commercial or ATP license. As a thought exercise...

    GA "needs"

    Hi everyone. Sorry if this has been posted before, but my searches have come up empty so far. I am a low hours private pilot, and do not have the experience to phrase this question in a more elegant fashion. As a thought exercise, what are the current "needs" in general aviation? What are...
