Just had my discovery flight and I’ve been wanting to go for my PPL for a while, just not sure I can justify the 15k or so investment in my current financial situation. Would it be really bad to spread my lesson over a period of a few years?

Since you guys travel all the time, question: I’m going to be flying United this week. I’m bringing 1 carry on duffel bag, and a suit in a dry cleaner bag. Can I also bring a laptop bag with me?

Does everyone here accurately track their weekly non billable hours? I only include BD and holidays/PTO when appropriate. Should I be tracking time spent on WBLs, company events, travel, etc?

Just flew American for the first time after six months of delta. Flight boarded at the scheduled time, left on time, landed on time. I didn't realize that was a thing that could happen

गम है......
तेरे चले जाने का,
तुमको ना पाने का,
अकेला हो जाने का,

अफसोस है......
गम से ना उभर पाने का,
इस गम अपने अंदर दबाने का,
वक्त रहते सच ना देख पाने का,

पर सकून है.....
तेरे खुश हो जाने का,
धन दौलत का ख्वाब पाने का,
मेरी तरह गमों में ना बह जाने का,

उम्मीद है........
अब travel वाले अरमानों का गला नहीं घोटते होगे,
Pretty dress को लेने से पहले प्राइस price tag नहीं देखते होगे,
Latest iPhone सबको दिखा के खूब फेंकते होगे,
Luxary staycations पे अच्छी धूप सेकते होगे,

आशा करता हूं......

Every time I start a new job I feel like I have to come out all over again. Feels exhausting since I’m a quiet person. And I’m not that obviously gay by looking. Usually I just told a few people and let the words travel if they do. How do you guys handling coming out at new job?

I have the Chase Sapphire Preferred card already but looking to get another cc. Thinking about the AmEx gold or platinum but not sure I can justify the high fee for platinum.

A few months ago I asked the question about using travel smart routers to host a VPN to disguise your location. The purpose of this is to have a working vacation in a foreign country, without telling work about it. My work computer has restricted access so I cannot install a VPN service on the computer without help from IT. My work around is a smart router that can directly host a VPN. Now I am in Cabo with a VPN to the US. I’ve included some details in a comment below. AMA

Hello if anyone’s there 👋 I’m wondering what some of you have done after getting your PPL? I assume continue to learn/gain ratings, but how often do you fly once you’ve reached that milestone, do you look to get you own aircraft (or share), volunteer etc? Looking to eventually take the plunge, but want to know what things look like beyond PPL.

It’s been so quiet in here... anyone was able to fly recently?

So, aviation buffs... Are those 30 donated jets actually gonna make a difference?

Been over 20 years since I've been PIC... Anyone know of a decent rusty pilot program in FL?

Any other air simulator pilots out there lol?

Anyone think of quitting consulting and going pro? There is a huge pilot shortage right now and it’s probably the best time ever to get into it. But the money....ugh.

How to find time to fly? I have gotten so busy, just picked up two more projects and realized it’s been 50 days. On the schedule for tomorrow, but geez 😒

Looking to choose a place to fly out of for getting my PPL. Would you recommend a program based out of a controlled or uncontrolled airport? It sounds like you get more flight time out of the uncontrolled (less busy), but less experience liaising with ATC. Both options are comparable cost-wise and about the same distance from my house.

Anyone have good fall foliage GA airports in New Hampshire, MA, or Southern Maine?

Anyone left in this bowl? It’s been so quiet

Took the plunge and took a 2 month break from work to finally get my PPL. No clue how I would’ve done this without the break. Passed medical, written, and already have 6 hours! I’m doing an accelerated program with a small school in California to knock this out in a few weeks. So far so good!

Finished my written and got my medical - starting flight training next week - any help welcome!
