    Accelerated Instrument Finish Up - Is one month realistic? (and if so, where?)

    I had my written, long XC, and all the hours and knocked it out in a week down at Ryan Field outside of Tucson, AZ for most of the same reasons, life getting in the way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bonanza V-Tail or Mooney M20x or ??

    If you find a decent Bo for $75K don’t tell anyone until you buy it! I think you need 2X that budget IMO to source a Bo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    where to go for accelerated ifr?

    See my prior posts on Golden Eagle/Arizona Aero Tech at KRYN field in AZ. Given the time off I would plan on 10-14 days and check your written, I had my IR one time out! Ask for Tim Pres. or Scott chief pilot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Winter Flight School Recommendations

    Being in the PNW I solved my winter/weather issues via Golden Eagle / Arizona Aero Tech just west of Tucson @ KRYN field. I did my IR finish up in 2020 and I’m back this month to get my commercial certificate. Good weather, they have a cadre of DPE’s they can schedule and well maintain planes...

    Attitude indicator drifts off, and my new one is doing the same

    Long shot here, in the Bo last year we failed the static test and it took awhile to find a set of pressure switches for the auto extend for the gear that were the cause. If you have a retractable with any sort of vacuum sensing look at those systems. BTW there was a pair of switches luckily we...

    Flight Schools

    See my IR finish up, went to Double eagle now at Ryan field outside Tucson specifically because of weather. Much less contention for ILS and VORs in Tucson vs. Phoenix where you have 4 schools all via for the same IR resources. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Stowe, VT for skiing

    Owned a condo for 25 years over the hill at Smugglers Notch so I drive by the airport. Good strip, see GA, PC-12 and light jets there for charter traffic. Plan on IFR and know there is high terrain all around. Burlington is 70 mins by car Stowe airport would be 15 into Stowe proper… Sent...

    Bygone commercial gigs

    New Hampshire still runs a fixed wing VASCAR on RT101 towards the sea coast in the summer and as late as 2018 Maine had one on I95 south of Portland. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Why are Bonanzas so cheap?

    As a thought exercise find a replacement ruddervater (magnesium) for a 35B? LMO when you find one. I’m a part owner of a v-tail, we love it and have it with dual G5s and a GFC500 AP but there are parts risks that come with our fun. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rusty Pilot

    Find a CFI and work out a plan of study to get up to speed and get through the flight review (formerly BFR). I did that after 15 years away and it was 4 of ground and two in the air to get back to VFR status. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Relocating to finish PPL

    Went down for a week to Tucson and Double Eagle to finish my IR, too much drama with weather, plane, and instructors last winter here in PNW. For IR Tucson was much better as Phoenix had 5 flight schools fighting over an approach. No idea if there is drama in Phoenix for VFR training. Sent...
