    Single engine ownership expenses.

    Wow, I guess you didn't get a lot of attention with this question. I've been away from this forum for some time now. You asked this over four months ago so I wonder if you got any of the answers you needed. We own a AA-5A Cheetah and I spend probably $3,000 to $4,000 per year on Maintenance...

    Arizona Soaring

    When I was there last (a couple years ago) they had a Grob 103, a few Schweizer SGS 2-33as, an SGS 1-26 (single seat), SGS 1-36 (single seat), a Schleicher ASK 21, a LAK Genesis 2 (another single seat) and a MDM-1 Fox aerobatic glider. They do a lot of business seven days a week and are a great...

    Airjobsdaily/airjobsdigest

    It has been down for more than three weeks now. I tried the phone number to talk with Mr. David Ellis Hammond whom called me just a couple months ago about my subscription. I left a message but have not received a call back. The other numbers listed for the company give the message the number...

    ASTRA SP Question

    This is for the SPx not the SP. It is also from charts, not UltraNav. So it is as close as I can get with my pencil. Max gross take-off weight from a 5,000' runway @ 10 degrees C and a field elevation of 700' MSL. No wind, no slope, no obstacles and 1st and 2nd segment climb gradients not...

    LSA Vs S-LSA

    I have a question. I've been looking at the regs (FAR Part 61 subpart J and other parts) trying to figure out if there is a difference between Light Sport Aircraft and Special Light Sport Aircraft. I see some aircraft advertised as one or the other and was just wondering.

    Rvsm

    If he or the avionics shop people have not been specifically trained on this system and have not been signed off by the agent of service as having the training or can't show in their training progam that their personnel are trained for it, anything they do will void the RVSM on the airplane. Who...

    LSA Rentals

    There is a Tecnam Sierra available at Cliff Hyde Aviation at Elington Field in Houston for I think $90 per hour.

    What's good pay for a ferry flight?

    $750 per day for an SA227? That's more than a Lear 60 contract pilot in most parts of the country.

    152 Rental Rate

    I was making a whole $2.75 per hour working for Sears at the time. I learned to fly before I bought my first car. I took the bus to work, the bus to school and the bus to the airport.

    G100 Pay rates....

    My guess, depending on experience, $55K - $65K for the South Florida area to start with. A more experienced pilot for a Co-Captain position would demand more ($75K - $85K). If you are a low time pilot and just typed and if that type is paid for by the hiring company (a $25K value) I'd start you...

    US Customs- WTF?

    After dealing with the customs folks in just about all the airports in South Florida over the years, I generally think they get more cooperative the further north you go. Miami is a real pain and it is a last resort stop for me. As for KFLL, we were based there and cleared it mostly without much...

    152 Rental Rate

    Back in 1975 and 76, the 152 didn't exist. But I could get a C-150 for $13.50 per hour and an instructor for $6.50 per hour for basic and $7.50 for advance instruction.

    Places to live in FLL

    It also depends on what you can afford to spend and what kind of things you are into. I recently departed the FLL area. I'm not into bars so that was never part of the equation. Where I lived wasn't bad, in a apartment complex on Sheridan Blvd in Hollywood, east of Federal Hwy about a mile from...

    Type Rating Cost (Various Compnaies)

    Is your program a full-service contract or just an initial? Also, depending on the client, FSI or Simuflite offer discounts for their regular clients. It also depends on the program. If the courses have a long wait list, then discounts are not often available. Supply and demand.

    Part 91 and supplement with 135

    There is a fundamental difference between flying Part 91 and 135. Under part 91, you are not generating revenue for the company and thus, are a support operation for the whole. Under 135, the primary purpose is to generate revenue, hopefully to offset some of your expenses, not generate new...

    EJA/Hawker Midair w/ Glider....Everyone OK - Merged!

    It's been some time since I flew gliders but from what I remember, they use windows for high altitude flights and advise ATC 24 hours in advance so a NOTAM can be issued. In most cases, they have battery operated transponders these days. Glass ships are real hard to pick up on radar and if you...

    Closest Airport to the Rose Bowl?

    KBUR - Bob Hope (Glendale-Hollywood-Burbank) Airport. They don't have any restrictions yet, though I know the neighbors have been trying. I haven't been there in a while so I won't recommend any FBO's but there are a few that are open 24 hours. I use to fly for Ameriflight out of there. The...
