    Moving to D.C.

    And I need to know of good places to rent an airplane. I'll have at least 1 weekend with nothing on the schedule. I found Oklahoma Aviation at Wiley Post, but the sure are proud of their fleet of 172's. There appears to be a 152 and a 177 for rent at Shawnee. They are a possibility. Any...

    Made the Call

    Yep, it's that time. Checkride, tomorrow, 1p.m. I'm a little concerned about the timing. Sunset around these parts will be 1715ish. Anyone ever finished their checkrid in the dark? Just curious. I'm not fully expecting to finish tomorrow. But starting is better than nothing.

    Finally Did It!

    Yep, that's right. After delays and excuses, I finally made my first flight. A 1.1 from EDF to the practise area, a crash and dash by the instructor at Goose Bay, and a full stop back at EDF. Was a little bumpy with stiff surface winds. Overall not a bad day and I can't wait for lesson number 2.

We agreed that the "standard" 10,000 page copies put out by ASA are a little cumbersome and we were wondering...

    Written Question Bank

    I was looking at the FAA test question bank here http://www.faa.gov/education_research/testing/airmen/test_questions/media/pvt.pdf and was wondering which questions were fair game for the PPL ASEL written. It seems that most of the 694 questions provided are not relevant to this rating.:dunno:
