    SpaceX Boca Chica launch viewing

    Flying down to Texas next week and found out SpaceX is doing their Integrated Flight Test 3 for the most powerful rocket ever. South Padre Island looks to be a great place but I'm not familiar with it and it's going to be spring break. Any suggestions? Places to stay? I've seen video from...

    Keep STC hard copies or are digital versions sufficient?

    Going through 50 years of doc on my 1973 Cardinal RG and while I know anything unique to the plane serial number like 337s are definitely keepers, are digital versions of STCs good enough for documentation for the FAA and new owners? As far as I can tell, the STCs are standard and not uniquely...

    Fly into Titusville for a rocket launch?

    Thinking of flying down to the Space Coast to watch SLS at the end of month. It's going to be crowded. Anyone fly into Space Coast Regional (TIX), Merrit Island (COI), or Arthur Dunn Airpark (X21) to watch a big launch event? Doesn't look like they have camping at any of those.

    Stowe, VT for skiing

    Have an Epic ski pass to use this season so I'm thinking of squeezing in a last minute trip possibly flying GA. Anyone fly into Morrisville-Stowe KMVL or would I be better off flying into Burlington KBTV. I guess I could Uber from KMVL instead of renting a car. Places to stay for a solo trip?

    Any good places to stop for a night 300nm east of Denver?

    Ferrying a plane from Chicago to Denver. Cruise on the PZL Koliber is only 95kts so I think I’ll make a stop within a few hours of Denver. There’s North Platte, NE but any other recommendations for a small town stop for dinner and a night stay? Maybe an airport near a lake or river?

    Rent a plane on Maui or Big Island?

    Going with friends to Maui in October but also considering adding the Big Island to the trip since I find volcanos fascinating. I'm not checked out in a 172 so a CFI/guide is a must. I'm leaning towards the Big Island but which island would be more interesting to circumnavigate?

    PRK retreatment after LASIK?

    Had LASIK back in 2006 but now need glasses to pass class 1. I have free retreatments but they said I can only do PRK for that and will probably still need glasses for near vision. I understand the longer recovery time but was wondering if anyone else has gone down that road? If it was just...

    Any good places to stop for a brat on field in Wisconsin?

    Looking to log some cross country time so looking to make trips 50 nm from 3CK. Some Wisconsin flying for $100 brat sounds like fun. Any suggestions?
