    Thinking about the Multi

    After getting about an hour in the right seat of a 414 about 6 months ago, I am seriously considering adding the multi rating. The local flying club has a known ice aztec on the line for $375/hr. Any tips to flying said airplane? Mostly asking @Ted DuPuis, but input from other aztec fliers is...

    Paging @denverpilot

    Yo Nate! Was wondering if you knew of a solution to boost broadcast AM/FM signals inside of a building.. I have test engineers looking to be able to boost radio stations inside the building where they're building our cars. Thoughts?

    NA -Supreme hatred for Java

    I am not referring to the nectar of the Gods that is brewed every morning, but the fetid piece of crap that is put out by Oracle. Trying to do OOB management to different vendors' servers, needs different versions of Java.. Dell won't work with an older iDRAC with the newest Java.. SuperMicro...

    Travelair skins

    Hey y'all, Got a buddy looking at a NC based travel air. Overall the plane is in great shape, but looks like there's some corrosion on the Magnesium elevator skins. Owner was up front about it, and the mechanic who's working on the plane has signed off the annuals as airworthy. If at some...

    Combining Checkrides

    Dumb question, probably asked here before... Would I be able to combine my initial multi and Instrument airplane in the same checkride? My gut says no, but it's been wrong before.

    Scrubbed a flight today

    Was going to fly the Debonair from VGT to VCV today on an IFR refresher flight, and to pick up my son from his mom. CFII calls me at 0700 before we were supposed to meet up, and tells me the winds are shaking his house. Crap, that's not good.. log into the PC, and get an updated wx briefing...

    Flying a PA/32 on BasicMed

    Hey y'all, An opportunity for a partnership in a lance came up, and I was wondering if I was going to be able to fly it on BasicMed? I know SOME were certified with 7 seats, so that's a no go.. But if it's got 6, is it good to go?

    Took my son flying for the first time

    On Saturday, I had the privilege of giving my 3 year old his first airplane ride. Was a short-ish x/c to KDAG to drop him off with his mom for her 2 weeks with him. I definitely had some anxiety about how he'd react to a new environment, and being the only other person in the plane, not being...

    One bent controller

    Was out doing pattern work at VGT with a CFI (knocking that rust off), and I managed to really **** the tower controller off.. Misheard her calls, thought calls for other aircraft were for me, and generally honked her off. Didn't get a number to call, but shoot, haven't had any issues like this...

    Flying with kids in debonair

    All, I have access to a 68 debonair, and want to take my 3 year old flying. Would I be best served to take his car seat out of my car and put it in the back of the plane, or use something like a CARES harness with a booster so he can see out the window? Also, what do you recommend for hearing...

    All, Have a good friend here who has asked me to join up in a 3 way partnership on a cherokee 180. ~400 SMOH IFR panel, but not ready for 2020. I will assume basic /A instrumentation. Including debt service at 0%, we're looking at 300/month fixed costs. $20/hr goes into the maintenance...
