Well I did my first solo yesterday! That was a rush. Only one complaint.... Damn ultralight without a trasponder didn't radio ahead they were in the zone and joined the circuit on final for landing before even announcing himself. I didn't see him until then due to a large hill. he ended up in the mi...

Thanks for the advice guys.... I've been around this forum long enough to know walking into a flying job with low time is basically like winning the 6/49 right now.... But at the same time at those rates if I can get a rating on a 180 and build cheap time it looks worth it. I won't be available to g...

outback aviation
I'm sure most of you have noticed the link above for outback aviation's float training. Does anyone know the guys running the outfit? Is the AC a death trap?
Thx

Not too sure how I managed to post twice but in my defense i was only on my fist cup of coffee :roll: Hey I got a freakin' pilot's license, why do I need a driver's license? Damn the man. Damn him many times over. Your argument looks good on paper but doesn't stand up to much. last i checked driving...

Save the gas for us
Hopefully they get the cars moved over to hydrogen and save the gas for us !
but seriously though i'd have to agree 100%. The only question is when we run out and how many wars are started due to a need for cheap oil....(hmm what does that remind me of )

Thanks for the info
It won't be worth even the 25 +travel expense this time around because I just got my class one but good to know going forward. I can't belive there isn't some simple fee to just extend it to both. Gonna cost me $157 bucks for a medical I just had done. I'm only 24 and fairly certain things haven't g...

Well TC has managed to piss me off too
I have a valid class one medical right now and need a marine medical as well. I called to ask if they could just transfer the damn thing for me and after the worman on the other end put me on hold ten times asking various people she came back and said no. She said it was because they are totally dif...

Here's another thought
One must be especially careful with unruly passengers when you are the only pilot onboard. If some crazy redneck takes a shot and manages to knock you out everyone is in real trouble.

bush pilot
You may want to look at moving up north somewhere and going the bush pilot route. If you can manage to get on full time doing dock work and whatever else you could get by.

150/152 prices
What ballapark should I expect to be in pricewise for a mid 70's 150/152 airplane? obvioulsy something with not too many bells and whistles as I'm mostly concerned with building hours.

insurance for low timers
Just one more question about insurance... I assume the costs go up the less time you have... I'm thinking at about 50-60 hours I want to buy a plane... Will they even insure me and at what phenominal cost?
Also Cat Driver can you PM me some info on your plane? Canadian dollars right?
Thanks,
