I am based at KTVL. You will have no problem getting an uber to get to heavenly. Should be around 30 bucks to the cal base lodge. There are taxis too but they typically charge double.

I am kind of bothered by the level of mis information and censorship over there on the vansairforce forum!

If you buy the LLC you will not have to pay the use tax. You will still be on the hook for property tax.

So sad. This was a dad, who killed himself and injured his 3 children. Some rumors are he was just a student pilot and others say he might have just passed his check ride and this was his first flight. The kids looked pretty small so I don't think weight was a factor. The problem was...

Just don't ask the glider guys that have no medical at all but fly above 18,000 feet!

This is basically fake news. There is no “ramp fees” if you park your airplane at the city owned tow downs at smo.

If you can use UL94 it's self serve. If you need 100LL you need to call the FBO and they will send a truck over. It's best not to buy fuel at SMO. Just bring enough to make it out and get much cheaper fuel elsewhere. The city parking is on the left side of the runway in front of the old...

I don’t know anything about TEB, whatever that is. I am based at smo and have been for 10 years so I have a pretty good idea of how it’s run. There is nobody to “greet” you at the airport. In fact the only way the city knows you land is by a transcription of the ATC feed. If you say the...

If you go to Santa Monica do not go to the FBO. The city has tie downs in front of the restaurant they closed down. They have a little gate which you can let yourself in and out of the airport. No facility fee. There still will be tie down fees and landing fees which should be ignored...

Trigs are great! Hard for them to compete value-wise with the Garmin equivalent. For those of us against the evil empire it's a solid choice. The exceptions are the smaller radios and transponders which have no Garmin equivalent.

Waypoint closes at 3pm so it's not really supper. On the weekends and Wednesdays they have their special a tri tip sandwich which should not be missed. One of you better order it but it can be split. I must remind the group that KSMO is free to land at and has free transient fees as long as...

I find this a little hard to believe. Where is home and where is mom and dad? In my experience most trips in general aviation planes with a family tend to do 2 hour legs. 3 hour legs are usually a stretch but at 5 hours you might as well just forget it. Someone's gonna have to pee.

Stick with the 182. Fly it and own it for a couple of years. After you get used to airplane ownership and flying yourself your entire perspective will change. You will realize for instance that the speed advantages the RV-10 has over the 182 don't really buy you much time in the real world...

If you are thinking of Van Nuys look at Whitman,. it's right next door but doesn't have the jet traffic. If I were you I would land at SMO and just throw away the dumb landing fee bill they mail to you. Also feel free to skip out on the transient fees too! (I am based at SMO) there is nothing...

Yes the wing spars are completely done even in the slow build kit.

Here is what I did out of a 182. I got a plastic pipe from home depot maybe 3 or 4 feet long. It might have had a 6 inch diameter and might have been some sort of a sewer pipe. I closed the bottom of the pipe off with a bunch of tightly packed newspaper. Next you put in the ashes. Then you...

What sort of plane is this? I can't think of a glass plane with a one piece wing.

I didn't have time to read all of the responses. Just re create the log book and have your instruct sign each old flight. You should have all of the flights plus your instructor should also be logging the flights so he can re sign your book where he gave you dual.

(1) who or what is paying to keep it running? If it is the "tax payer" then is it city, state, federal? Right now the city funded by excessive landing fees, high rents, and non aviation use at the airport. (2) who or what owns it and has the right to do it with as they please? It was lent...
