Do these kinds of services - talking about what I may want to look for, then helping locate the right plane and negotiating a fair price for it - exist anymore? I tried looking it up but all I can find are brokers, which doesn't seem quite right from the buyer side. I'll be looking to acquire a...

I'd love to know how this played out. Can't upload the MP4 file here so I am linking it to Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4caw751x13dzxk7/Pilot%20class%20Bravo.MP4?dl=0 I get a feeling that if I tried to pull this off, I would never be allowed in the left seat again, but maybe I'm...

New airport for me, looked up what I could and now seeking wisdom from this here community. Flight will be at the worst time, arriving around 3pm on Friday. Plane is a pponk 182, so I’m not worried about performance, even with the heat. Coming in from NorCal. I see two routes - one is from...

Hey, everyone, been a while. Honestly, I debated myself quite a bit before deciding to come back and ask this, but I can't think of any other place where I could. I've now amassed more than 400 hours, done some more instrument training (and deserted it again - don't know why I can't quite get...

(otherwise known as the iLevil2 SW) I purchased this unit 2.5 years ago as part of the pioneer beta program for Glass Aero. I then used it exactly twice, and it has been sitting in my closet since then. I'm sure somebody would be happy to get far more use out of it! Asking $650 OBO.

Outside of the Silver Eagle, is there a known conversion for the Centurion, like a modern diesel?

All, While I've been flying in the bay area for my entire flying career, there are a couple of things I have never actually done: (1) fly the bay tour; and (2) fly above the bay between SFO and OAK. I donated a flight to charity and will be taking a couple of folks up in the next few weeks...

As someone who has been going through the intricate annual special issuance medical process for a number of years now, I am very interested in this topic. But I can't find an answer. Since insulin dependent diabetes is pretty much the number one "you don't fly" condition that requires special...

I promise this a post about flying so it fits here... it just doesn't start out that way. == Does anyone here play Ingress? if you don't, here is a quick (shortened) summary from Wikipedia: Ingress is an augmented reality massively multiplayer online role playing location-based game...

I am flying in to pick up my kids from camp on Saturday, 8/1, and need a car at O28. There is a local Enterprise agent, but they are closed on the weekends. The Ukiah office is open but the drop off will be a problem. I need the car from noon to 6PM or so, and will be driving up with...

This is epic.

Last time I took myself out there was in early November. So a couple days ago I had an unexpected free morning - no clients, no calls, nothing pressing to finalize and submit to anyone. Beautiful norcal day. And suddenly the thought hit me - there's this plane sitting there in a hangar...

The FAA sent me a letter asking me to do one - apparently I should have done one as part of my renewal this year. I've never done one of these before. Do I have to go to an AME to do it? or can it be done anywhere?

This is a crosspost from the internal forums for the Aero Glass beta testers. For some comments that are not included below: I do like the technology, and the glasses are surprisingly comfortable in flight even worn on top of my near-vision glasses (surprise!). The augmented reality aspect...

So it's a gorgeous day here in the SF bay area - one of those that make people pay stupid money to live here. I decide it's a perfect day for me to "fly and bike" to the office instead of driving. It's not any less time - comparable - but I get some exercise, I get to fly, I get to ride my...

Still trying to calm down. I also have a question to folks who understand this - Dr Bruce are you still here? - at the end. I marked it clearly so you can skip the entertainment in between if you'd like to be kind enough to answer and don't care for the rest. So my medical expired in August...

So flew out to o28 yesterday to pick up my daughter from camp... It has been awhile since I had to do a go around, but goodness me, that's a crazy strip to land into! It looks pretty tame, really - on top of a hill, very clear, has a bit of a bump in the middle so you can't really see one...

Anyone check out the Aero Glass? I signed up for the beta and ordered the avionics package yesterday - looks like I'm one of the first 200. This looks to this VFR pilot like one of the best bang-for-the-buck safety investments I can ever make. Anyone else signed up for the beta?

Anyone familiar with long beach airport? I will be picking up a friend there mid next week, and am trying to find the information to give them about where in the airport they should go, since I assume it won't be the main terminal. Pickup is around 9 pm. Also, second question: when...

I think I have my route for my trip south planned as far as the LAX Bravo is concerned; basically, I intend to avoid it to the east :goofy: But flying into Brown field means I have to navigate through San Diego Bravo - which looks even crazier than the LAX Bravo, something I never imagined...
