    what does a pulmonary embolism feel like?

    You should let Dr. Bruce assist you. "Or you you could let someone who knows if it's going to go well at the agency look at it before sending anything to the agency, tell you whether to just step down to LSA and say the heck with it, rather than risk a denial. 'Lotta variables here." Hint, Hint.

    What a pleasure.

    Dr Chien is a great guy. I saw him in February after he had already spent considerable time in assisting me get my stuff together. He helped me thru some tough issues. If he charged what he is worth (his expertise is unquestioned) we couldn't afford it. He is extremely fair and reasonable and...

    Rant: 3rd class medical - 8+ weeks

    Well I'm not wheezing, nor do I have to use a cane, yet. Many years ago, I did considerable time in a Schwitzer 1:22. Forgot how to spell Switchzer, forgive me. It was a great time. You are right, there is nothing to compare with powered planes. It is so quiet. I lived in the panhandle of Texas...

    Story About a Defiant Student

    Sounds like a clinical case of drug use, or there are serious problms at home. He's turned 180 degrees. If, somehow you could demonsrate to him that you really care about him, forget the flying, you might get him to share what's troubling him. Let him know he doesn't have to be specific, but...

    PILOT TRAINING SOLUTIONS

    Thank you, Josh. I have kept up over the years, by reading, following the forums, and taking a great many of the AOPA courses. I still have my license, so I won't have to take the written for Private, again, but there are some areas I could still use some refreshing again. A lot has changed...

    PILOT TRAINING SOLUTIONS

    I am thinking of purchasing a private pilot course and a instrument course. I am a pilot that has been away for about 30 years and I want to study to bring myself up-to-date.
