    Any Extra 300 owners here?

    Oops, good point... Here is my perspective (minus the personal contact details): In terms of maintenance, they are pretty simple airplanes and not difficult to maintain. In general, they have pretty basic systems, and are quite reliable. On the flying side, they are pretty easy to fly if you...

    Any Extra 300 owners here?

    The LT is mainly built with XC flight in mind, but has aerobatic capability. It is not really designed to be a top performing competition or airshow machine, but capable of the level of aerobatics the majority of people would want to do. In other words, if becoming the next National aerobatic...

    Hi all! And some questions...

    While I am not an owner, I have been flying Extras for about 9 years and and pretty well involved in the community, so I can help get you connected to the right people... Feel free to PM me with any specific questions and I would be happy to help.

    Any Extra 300 owners here?

    Not an owner, but I fly/teach in them regularly (600+ hrs Extra time). I'd be glad to help if you have any specific questions. I can also probably put you in touch with the right people if I can't answer myself. Feel free to send me a PM

    OregonAero Portable Seat Cushion reviews sought

    Those are excellent... I spent quite a bit of time sitting on aircraft seats with very little or even no padding at all, for hours at a time. IMO, definitely worth it.

    Any Garmin GDL 39 Users?

    I have a -39-3D that I've used in various aircraft types and have flown coast to coast on 10+ occasions and a whole lot more short(er) cross country trips. So far, it has worked great, and I haven't had any issues with it.

    Is it fun to fly a Cirrus?

    All airplanes are "fun" to fly, but some more than others. I have time in both Arrows and SR20s (no 22s so far), and they are built for traveling as most have said. In my opinion, the Cirrus was definitely not a fun stick and rudder airplane, but nor is the Arrow. Actually, I think the Arrow...

    Tailwheel Student Logging of PIC

    As long as they are qualified to log PIC in the same category/class as they're training in (ASEL, AMEL, etc...), they can log instruction as PIC during training for a tailwheel, complex or HP endorsement. They can not be the acting PIC until they are properly endorsed.

    If you did declare an emergency...

    Nothing here either. I've declared and the only thing that we ended up doing was sending back a potentially faulty part to the manufacturer so they could examine it.

    Any Glider Pilots?

    Awesome! I learned to fly in gliders when I first started and wouldn't have had it any other way. What kind of glider are you flying?

    At the moment, the fail rate down in OKC is around 70%... at least for the enroute program. I don't know the specifics of the terminal version.
