    Best place to rent in Morristown KMMU?

    Thank you- They aren’t pilots- it would be for me when I visit - which I do several times a year

    Best place to rent in Morristown KMMU?

    Have good friends who just moved to West Orange. I’m a west coast airline pilot who’s been renting GA quite a bit at home. Curious where pilots have had good experiences in the area.

    Engine failure at night

    This reminds me of flying single engine night cargo on my 9/11 furlough. CRG-OPF-CRG-ORL-CRG. 9 at night til 8 in the morning, 6 nights a week in a c210. Craig to Opa Locka, our flight plan had to deal with the ILS 9L to FLL. (Now 10L) Before that it was basically I95, and 26 airports along the...

    Can I ask? why didn’t you fly during COVID? I agree with one post above. Listen to your fears and figure out what they are about. There’s an old basketball coach thought I use in flying a lot. Two types of fear. Appropriate fears. Fears that serve you. And destructive fears. Fears that hold you...

    Largest non-complex single engine aircraft?

    Two reasons to stay away from complex. Your ability, and “simple” means less to break. =<$$$. You should stay learning. Get complex endorsements. Fly them a bit. Then going back, things slow down (mentally, SA wise) even more as you were used to managing more. It serves you to progress even if...

    IPad Mini 6 for Foreflight

    The pencil is one of the reasons I’m leaning 6. I’ve never used one on any device. Can you tell me more? Useful in flight? Clearances, etc? or will I lose it in a week?

    IPad Mini 6 for Foreflight

    I understand the 6 is out, but there are still plenty of 5’s on the market.Just trying to decide if I need to spend on a 6, or since I have a good full size iPad and iphone -and the mini is just going to be for ForeFlight- is a 5 just as good. That said, I don’t need to pinch every penny- if the...

    IPad Mini 6 for Foreflight

    I’ve never owned a Mini before but am realizing that it’s the best size balance for GA flying. IPhone 13 pro is too small, full size iPad I use for work is big enough to be awkward. With the new iPad mini 6 out in late September this year, should I spend for that- or just buy a 5 that might get...

    Shopping for a watch any suggestions

    I have the Garmin D2 Air. I replaced my Garmin Fenix 5 with it and it’s the best smart watch I’ve used. Sleep and fitness tracking is much better. I haven’t bothered using the aviation features yet. Small, light, battery life is at least twice an Apple Watch. All of which are important for me...

    ILAFFT: Almost Killed my Family on an Instrument Approach

    OP Thank you for sharing. At our airline, the very few in our ranks that aren’t fun to fly with are people who are so arrogant they think they have nothing to learn and never make mistakes. This, almost to a tee has its root in a lack of talent and insecurity about that. If it’s not at the...

    ILAFFT: Almost Killed my Family on an Instrument Approach

    Idk..when I first enrolled in flight school, we had a guy kicked out for slaloming the antennas east of Wiley Post. (OKC area) He then claimed it was an accident because it’s so flat and was only bragging because he didn’t want to admit he’d made that kind of mistake.

    Cherokee 6 cabin size question

    I haven’t experienced it, but like the idea of it- we’re a tall Viking family. My sister is 6’ married to a 6’4” bloke and I’m 6’7” with a 5’9” Gf. An ex basketball player and have more than a few friends well over 6’. I’m not buying a Cherokee 6 as a 6 seater. I like that payload and those big...
