    Flying Wild Alaska S2

    Pirep Glasair Sportsman 2+2

    I saw a couple at the Glasair. "Tundra" tires, floats, standard wheels. I had been looking at a Six for the space (dogs +2 small kids), but my wife says we can leave the dogs at home. Anyone here built / flew one? I'm still interested in the Six, but the ability to land almost anywhere is...

    BARR query

    This is NOT meant to devolve into is BARR good or bad. Start a different thread for that if you want to chat about it. I'm just curious how many IFR pilots blocked theirs or didn't bother.

    Laser Spark Plugs

    Pretty neat. They claim a more uniform burn than standard plugs and are even working on a multi-laser (3) for even more finer over the burn. NOTE: currently being designed for autos. Be kind of neat if it could help solve the 100LL switch problem. The STC would probably be one heck of a PITA...

    Suggestions for a Family plane cheap

    Now when I say cheap, it's relative, and I'm talking price per hour / average annual cost cheap vs it's competitors. Background on use: Lower time pilot so I would prefer a forgiving plane. 2 (120 / 195 lbs) adults, 2 (5 & 7) beanpole kids, 2 dogs (20 & 45 lbs) Would like a good range if...

    Leaseback (Business not Personal)

    It's always business never personal... I'm working on getting my PPL (with IFR and Complex, in that order) at the moment. The Flight School was looking to offload an old 172N and offered to do a leaseback, but stated up front it probably wouldn't get many hours. He said that might be useful...
