    cell phones!

    I need a new cell phone, but I can't decide which one. Why do you like or hate your phone? I like the iphone 5s, but never actually used one, but do have an ipad and macbook pro, so the phone would be similar. The Samsung Galaxy S4 is too big, it's enormous. Moto X? Google Nexus 5...

    credit card fraud

    USAA called me a few days ago to ask me about suspected fraudulent charges on my credit card. The card was cancelled immediately. I give USAA high marks for flagging suspected fraud. They FedExed me new cards. But still, this seems to happen once every year or two. I do buy stuff online, but I...

    cell phones and travel

    We go to Europe once or twice a year to visit family, and so far have just been using a regular cell phone, but the roaming is getting expensive, and that does not include data. The last time, we used an iPad also, but wireless access was spotty to nonexistent, so it was not as helpful as we...

    do fatal accidents make you think twice?

    I know of two fatal accidents in the past few months. The one last week near JGG, and one in Florida a few months ago. Both pilots were very experienced with thousands of hours. One crashed while landing, the other on takeoff. How can two very experienced pilots with thousands of hours die...

    overtaking slow planes in the pattern

    So at an airport a while ago, I was on the ground and saw a Piper Cub in the pattern overtaken by a Velocity. The Velocity pilot just zoomed right around the Cub to pass. What is the right thing to do if behind a slower airplane?

    failing eye exam

    What would happen if someone failed the eye exam of the third class medical? I know someone taking lessons who I think needs reading glasses but refuses to admit it. What would he have to do if he fails the medical for that? Please don't point out the obvious of going to an eye doctor first; I...

    Virginia people, question.

    I live in Virginia, my father lives in Florida. He wants to add my name to the registration of his airplane, which is hangared in Florida. If he adds me to his registration, will Virginia tax me? I thought the plane had to be physically in the state in order to be taxed.

    luggage recommendations

    Anyone recommend their luggage? It's time to buy new bags, and I thought all the travelers here could chime in about their favorite bag. Keep in mind I'm now traveling with a small infant, so lightweight but roomy is key.

    favorite credit cards?

    I thought I'd start a new thread on favorite credit cards, instead of adding to the current thread on fraud. Coincidentally, USAA called me today about fraudulent activity on my credit card, which has been cancelled. What's your favorite credit card? I also want a new one that doesn't have...

    audio tape conversion?

    My mom has a series of audio tapes that she loves and listens to with an old Sony walkman. I was wondering if I can convert them into digital files for her and put them on a cd or an ipod. How can I do that? Thanks.

    opinions please

    My instrument instructor, who I like and think is really good, wanted me to fly with another instructor just to see what another instructor says. This instructor was just hired by my instructor (owner of small flight school). Well the flight with the new instructor was a waste of my time and...
