Ha I was talking to a pilot at work the other day about this. He said i have a decent theory ... what if there was a VIP or government official onboard that they wanted to kidnap and one of the...
I'm seriously appalled by this whole thing. I'm not very sure what to say over this as well. if theres a chance to redeem yourselves, EAA, better do it quick. I'll be thinking about pulling my...
Hey all! I am a student pilot, almost done with my PPL, and I am a member of the local chapter. I love it, we have great people, everyone is friendly, but we do lack new members. Our club too is...
Well I would love to go the entire week, but I have to be careful with finances. I am still a student pilot, so I am paying for that in cash, and Oshkosh this year is my big trip and main goal. (I...
I have never been to either!! This year I will be at Oshkosh for sure, however i'm on the fence about SNF. My sister lives in Brandon, FL, so it makes it that much easier to be there. If I do go...
it has taken me about 2 years so far for my private rating. i had to take a break after a year and a half because i ran out of money. it has been quite the process for me. i am almost done though. I...
I've done a warm up solo xcountry to a small airport about 55 nm away with ease. i made myself a personal checklist with things to personally do before, during and 15-20 nm outside of the destination...

I am training in a cherokee warrior. low wing makes it harder to see out the sides. i am getting better with checkpoints, heading and keeping altitude, so i guess now i have the problem of trying to...
I am working on my private rating right now, and having cross country troubles. i pretty much got flight planning down, im getting used to multi-tasking during the flight, taking off, getting on my...
Excellent website! very helpful! thanks for the suggestion :D
I can definitely say and agree that money is one of the biggest problems, as I am going through that myself right now. It's almost $180 an hour to fly in a small single enging plane learning my...
Thanks everyone for the helpful hints and tips!! Currently I have paid for most of my private rating in cash, but i don't have a job or jobs for the sufficient income right now. I'm in the process...
I am a student pilot flying out of 9G3 (akron, ny), and I have fallen into the financial trap that is so easy to do ... I've run out of cash to fly! I am looking to get into school, I've applied at...
