Much appreciated! That is what I was hoping. I wouldn't be offended at 10-20 hours and yes, lots of binging on ground school will be on tap before I step anywhere near an airport. I just don't want an instructor to decide "Yeah this guy needs another 40-60 hours!"

AKA This?

I don't have an usual instrument, but I do have some unusual stories as a musician and some famous people I met and a few I played with on stage if it sounds interesting.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Too bad because if I could do the work and get it inspected, I could literally save tens of thousands of dollars on unnecessary labor costs.

So I'm guessing if you are not certified, you cannot swap your own equipment and just get it inspected? That is highway robbery!

Not even going to ask you the costs for all that :)

200 HP, about 135kts max @ 75% power. Those were great planes, too bad so many aircraft builders went OOB or sold. I would definitely agree with you on avionics upgrades. I love flat screen displays!

Something like this and its close! https://www.trade-a-plane.com/search?category_level1=Single+Engine+Piston&make=BEECHCRAFT&model=B24R+SIERRA+200&listing_id=2408070&s-type=aircraft#

Awesome, good for you! I saw an old 1969 Beechcraft A24 I so wanted to get, under 100k, up in Canada. Someone beat me to it!

Welcome Shane. What kind of plane are you looking at?

Not sure about that. Want to see Metallica play with me on Stage? About 33 minutes into the video. That's me with the Gibson Flying V and the wig :D https://rumble.com/vb2c55-metallica-joins-creeping-death-30-mins-into-the-video..html

Yeah I was hoping 25 hours or less would be my goal. 25 hours @175hr (guesstimate) = $4375. I budgeted around 6k, counting the probably 20k I've already spent.

https://myflightbook.com I have used this to translate my paper logbook to digital. Once you review what I sent you, you'll see I have some things to clean up but I am not far off from completing. I'm fairly confident once I am in the seat stuff will come back pretty quickly. Especially Xwind...

FAR 61.109. All complete EXCEPT: (4) 3 hours of flight training with an authorized instructor in a single-engine airplane in preparation for the practical test, which must have been performed within the preceding 2 calendar months from the month of the test; and (obviously no, because it's...

Thank you. I went to First Landings on Saturday, the only person there was the ground school trainer and of course, he was busy with students. Not even a receptionist and the phone was ringing off the hook. I eventually got someone to respond after 5pm yesterday so I sent them my excel...

Hey BC thank you! I will definitely go read up on that and double check. Again, I have my log books, digitized, so I would love someone to take a peek!

Ah thanks. I didn't think I would need that many hours and I can't seem to link MyFlightBook flights here, but, if anyone is interested, I can share my excel spreadsheet. I agree, just need to knock some rust (in peace!) off. I'm more concerned with what has changed since 2013 when I last...

I suggest the entire "Ride the Lightning" album. Start with "Creeping Death" which was also the name of my band. Then go listen to Tornado of Souls (Megadeth), best metal solo EVER!

Ah nice, what did you think? Small runway, next to a road. Again, I haven't flown there yet and wont until Feb/Mar of next year. Trying to determine which school there is the best.

Im in Winter Garden so Apopka is the best. Yes, there's MCO to deal with as well as Orlando Executive, so I plan to stay away from there. I wouldn't mind flying to Sarasota. Do you fly with your dogs in the plane? I'd love to take mine up!
