    Flight tracking sites

    What do people use typically to allow friends and family to easily track your flights? I’m aware they can go enter the tail number into FlightAware, but I’m wondering if there is anyplace that allows you to create a custom page which someone can go to and just see your flights… I’m guessing not...

    Longer trip starting in the Northeast - what is feasible given COVID (looking for ideas)

    A bit of an open ended question here, but I want to take a long trip this summer perhaps early to mid July in my Cherokee 180. IFR Equipped, however I am a conservative IFR flier and am just getting current again so I will absolutely file, but am not looking for storm dodging in the summer so...

    Private Pilot Video Course Recommendation?

    This is for my 15 year old daughter who wants to start training or at least learning aviation theory, rules, etc beyond just what I teach her while we are flying. Typical kid these days much more of a visual learner, so my first thought was the Sportys courses, but I will have to say they seem...

    o-360 cht temps

    I have seen a few posts from a couple of years ago on this topic but thought I would ask for some pireps on those with O-360 engines. I have a Cherokee 180. Cyl#3 reads around 425 degress in full throttle climb even when climbing at 100 mph (cruise climb speed). It does calm down though in...

    Sonex?

    Been looking a lot at the Sonex lately. Has anyone flown one who is willing to write about the flight characteristics? Seems like a quicker build than an RV-9A (which I was also considering), and could also work well cross country at 150 mph (with the 120 hp engine). The fact that you can...

    King Instrument Written DVD (eBay)

    Just wanted to point anyone interested to my eBay auction. I am selling my King Instrument Written exam DVDs. While it is disconcerting to watch Martha's hair change from segment to segment, I find it the absolute best way to study for written exams. Feel free to PM or email if you have any...

    Building Confidence - Gusty conditions

    Got out to KBED (Bedford, MA - new england) on Sunday for the first time in over a month. Conditions were beautiful, a little on the windy side but looked like under 10 knots. Got out to start the preflight though and could tell things were worse than that. Atis was saying 12 knots around 30...

    Any recommended good weather schools?

    Been up for a couple flights in my quest to get m BFR after not flying for years. I am surprisingly in good shape and probably won't need a ton more flying but here is the rub: I am having a bear of a time getting good enough weather to finish up the review/instruction with our lovely Boston...

    Because you were all so helpful in my last question about returning to flying, I wanted to solicit a couple of opinions regarding which aircraft to return to flying in. Quick readers digest version of my story: - Returning to flying after 15 years - Private Pilot - 85 hours in C172 -...

    Returning to Flying

    Hopefully for my first post here I haven't asked a FAQ, etc. I got my PPL in 1991 at VNY (Van Nuys, CA) and shortly thereafter moved back to the Boston area. Flew for a bit for a grand total of only around 90 hours (almost all 172 time) and quit that same year due to finances, life, etc. I...
