Pre-Flight
So, I was fumbling through the holiday gift guide of a popular mail-order aviation supply company. It got me thinking, what's the biggest waste of money in aviation?
For me it has to be the handheld radio. I bought one of these suckers after my 2nd lesson and spent enought money for 6 hours of plane rental time on it. Five years and 550 hours later, I've yet to actually need it for anything.
I still carry it on IFR flights, but for a primary student it's useless, unless you're flying something that doesn't have a radio.
