    Long XC in Cessna 150?

    Weve all heard it, a long XC is a series of short ones. But who’s done it or regularly does it?

    Commuting to work in airplane on company dime?

    Hey all, theres a chance I may be moving to a regional position that I may be traveling to and from different locations for work. I'm not an owner but am curious, could someone fly their plane and be reimbursed for expenses or is this a "pro rata share" scenario? No one else would be in the...
