    Columbo Rolls a Bonanza

    Johnny Cash is in an episode of Columbo. Not sure if he was the pilot but he killed someone, and then parachuted out and let the plane crash. Great episode and and I do believe he was the pilot.

    Converging from opposite sides

    I think that all of your calls are pretty standard for going into a non towered airport. I wouldn't say that what you experienced is normal, however, my field isn't always real busy. I think I would of come back on the radio and told the other plane my position, and that I am setting up for 4...

    Talking on the radio improvements

    I bought say again, please by Bob Gardner a long time ago. Read it cover to cover a few times and it really helped me. I started in a class, so I was placed in the fire from the beginning. Great book though and I believe he used to be on this site too.

    Power on remotely

    That's a great idea. I'm not real far from the FBO, and mounting the antenna shouldn't be all that bad.

    Power on remotely

    This year I want to fly more than I have in the past. I've seen posted here cell service devices for powering on a device remotely, but my searches have come up empty. I want to power on my engine heater prior to my 35 minute drive. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Accelerated instrument training

    OK, so let me throw a wrench in this. Let's say I know a DPE that still teaches. Can I hire him as an instructor to help me prepare for the oral, or to go over the ACS with me?

    Adding a flight review to ForeFlight

    When you select the instructor, it asks what kind of training, you select flight review. You may need to ad the instructor if this is the first time with them.

    Partnership

    The $500 in the scope of things isn't an issue except for the fact that after our annual, our yearly dues were depleted. Again, this isn't an issue because we realize the cost of flying our own airplane, but one partner said do we need the LLC, or just use our agreement. This year our K1 shows...

    Partnership

    We do file a loss every year. I do understand the legal aspects mentioned too.

    Partnership

    I own a small business, so I do know the benefits of having an LLC or any other type of legal entity. We have an LLC for our current airplane partnership, and just had our taxes (K1) created. The cost for this was about $500, so one of the partners asked why we have it, and can we dissolve it...

    Adding existing hours to foreflight logbook ?

    I added all of mine over a several week period. I started in 1983, but didn't take it back up until the 90's. It took me a while.
