holy cow. They recently opened an operation at Lakeland. I heard them in the pattern yesterday. I have a buddy who went to one of their seminars last week. He said there were at least 150 people there and they made it clear they could only take on 30-35 new students. He also said they...

The individual seasons go for around 20 so it didn't seem too "garage sale". It was the only way to get all 8 seasons and I thought it would be nice to have the complete series. Honestly, I couldn't care less if they were copyrighted. You think I'd be on here griping if the dvd set was...

Boy did I get taken. I love buying some of my old favorite tvshows on dvd. I found a site called DVDAvenue and they were the only place that had all 8 seasons of the sitcom Wings and man was it cheap! Got em all for 100 bucks. I guess it's all bootleg cuz the quality is terrible and there's...

Thanks all. I will keep your comments in mind when I go shopping. And I sure won't let my policy lapse! tc

Boy do I feel like a fish outta water. My cobra runs out next month and I need to get my own health insurance. I've been cruising the internet and seen plenty of plans and except for varying deductibles and prices they all kind of look the same. Humana looks like my best bet so far. Anybody...

I heard that rumor last year. Sent them an email and they totally denied it. I assume the same is true for this year but don't really know. When I saw the price cuts on the 496 and 396 ahead of oshkosh I wondered if maybe there wasn't a lowrance announcement coming. Keep the rumor alive...

Without knowing the politics there's no way to know what's going on. Obviously there's a battle over this airport. Garemore has already gotten a court to prohibit airport residents flying ANY size aircraft from accessing the runway. And now he's going after the only guy left with access...

The fact is there's nothing wrong with the current system, well, other than the usual abundance of government waste, corruption and mismagement. This is about the airlines wanting us to foot more of their costs, which by the way, are incurred developing a system specifically designed to their...

A young warrior goes to the big tribal chief with a gripe. "Oh great chief, I want to change my name" "Why young warrior? I chose your name according to tribal tradition" "I hate my name and all the other warriors make fun of me!" "Oh young warrior, you know how this works. When each...

Kinda died down today. Yesterday it was everywhere and they had 911 people on tv telling the public "don't stop calling 911 in an emergency! we'll try and help ya!". And they had healthcare people on tv showing how to do the heimlich. It was mostly just a day of outrage over the indifference...

i was about to post a "whatever happened to smigaldi?" thread over in the spin zone. no new bush bashes over there all day. i thought maybe something was wrong. i even ran your N number through the ntsb database earlier. just in case. nothing there fortunately! :yes: tc

i'm starting to do a lot more of my own maintenance. just for fun and to save a few bucks. so i just signed up. i'll let ya know how it works out. tc

i love it. no user fees for the average pilot. just another 75 cents a gallon tax. but no "user fees". she should be in congress. i read the other day where she said this was all for the good of ga. that we would soon be squeezed out of the "system" without user fees. man, this chick is...
