    "Any landing you can walk away fr-" "Hush"

    This isn't something I make fun of someone for doing. My landings resemble that guy's too much. I had 7 landings this morning with my CFI and I a bounced one of them and let my nose wheel touch slightly on another. I even got a little crooked on one as well, but I got them down safely with no...

    BasicMed

    I didn't really plan that apt on May 1st for Basic Med. I already had it scheduled anyway. It really doesn't matter though, I will discuss it with him that day and drop it off when it is ready. He will look at it and probably have me come in for further consultation before he will sign it...

    BasicMed

    I probably would be fine doing the 3rd class, but why should I? I am already seeing my Doctor for monitoring purposes of a couple things. It's nothing that would rule me out of flying but still it has to be watched. Why pay an AME on top of it?

    BasicMed

    I have a doctor's appointment on May 1st 8:25am Central time... I hope to have that form in hand at that regularly scheduled appointment. I will have all my blood work done on the 24th, so all my labs will be up to date. My doc said he would sign it. We shall see. I plan on taking that AOPA...

    Basic Med may not catch on

    I have a doctors visit scheduled for May 1st. I plan to have the forms with me. My doctor said that he would sign them but until I have his signature on the dotted line, I will be skeptical. I get his signature, then I will go straight to find the online course. I understand you have to...

    Prescription sunglasses

    I wear a billed hat for direct sun problems and a prescription bifocals that change to a darker tint that I got at my eye doctor's office. I have never had a problem with seeing the instruments or out of the plane except directly at the sun. I also have a tinted visor overhead that I can...

    93 Mooney listed on Trade-A-Plane

    Yep, I still have 'em both! They are both in West Point right now. The Mooney is getting it's first annual from Jim and I had him replace the muffler and exhaust on the Cherokee. I do have the Cherokee listed for sale now on a couple websites. I am getting a few nibbles but nothing serious...

    Close call this weekend

    I have talked directly to other pilots many times, but mostly in a direct question or quick statement to clarify a position or notification to assist in separation. I have been asked where I was right after I had announced that I was turning downwind to 18. I repeated downwind 18 but I failed...

    When to start the Basic Med process

    I just read on the FAA website that you cannot get the forms signed before May 1st. You may not like it or even understand why, the answer is no, don't sign before May 1st. Look on page six for that specific question...

    Plane Owners - Would You Rent out your Plane?

    No way no how! I just do not trust other pilots to not break my plane or not break something and not tell it. You want to go fly in a broken plane? I didn't think so. Plus, it's just not enough profit for the risk.

    Boiled peanuts

    Absolutely love me some "BoilT" peanuts. I prefer freshly picked with a little heat but I will even eat them from the can. I prefer Allen's over Peanut Patch but I can't get them everywhere. I don't know Allen's variety but they sure are of better quality and larger. Peanuts in a coke...
