TXaviator · December 20th, 2006, 14:15

yeah. take it.

CRJ700 · December 20th, 2006, 15:55

Nice work, off to 222 now, a way more fun course in my opinion.

Just don't blow threw the localizer on your final stage while distracted by relaying an IFR clearance to Mesaba down below like I did

CAFFEINE · December 20th, 2006, 16:34

Congrats! On to 222!

ZUKO · December 20th, 2006, 17:06

Nice work!

TXaviator · December 20th, 2006, 19:54

yeah 222 sounds significantly more fun

221 wasnt bad but i dont feel like i learned too terribly much. certainly not like 102 (for obvious reasons)

221 is mostly there to build solo XC time and to introduce you to IFR flight so its not as big of a shock when you hit 222. But the big majority is to build solo time for the 141 instrument rating requirements. You will learn lots more in 222, and its alota fun as well. Just get used to the damn hood!!

Congrats, are you taking 222 ground with Tina Anderson? I need 1.8 night hours here which is holding me back right now since UND closes at 4:30PM. Did you take a break or went all out with the sim flights?

2 per day on sims

and cant register yet (since i just finished, duh)

TheShocker · December 21st, 2006, 02:35

Well whenever I do finish I plan on doing 222 with Tina, she is pretty fun if her classes fits your schedule.

BuickCFI · December 21st, 2006, 21:28

very nice. you should go over to GFKFS and get checked out in the cadet for free.

(note that is a ground only checkout)

ah i was wondering what their specs were for the checkout deal...

so finishing 221 = free ground checkout in the cadet? not bad. whats the rate on that thing these days?

65 + gas, which if you are capable of leaning you burn about 7gph and cruise at around 110-115

same vspeeds, etc as a warrior, just less gross weight

CAFFEINE · December 22nd, 2006, 12:50

What's 100LL running these days?

BuickCFI · December 22nd, 2006, 13:28

3.70 or so i think

CAFFEINE · December 22nd, 2006, 13:34

So we're talking about $90ish an hour for the cadet. What's the arrow run?

20 more, and the fuel burn isn't that much more either. i did a BFR in it this week and we only burned 9 gallons i think. note with more than 1 person in the cadet it doesn't get the same speeds and will cruise just like a warrior only maybe up to 5kts faster

Farva · December 22nd, 2006, 14:46

is the seneca still at flight support? cause i was wondering if it is stilll availible to use.

Or once we get our new Cessna 172, you can join the local ND flying club and fly for $10/dry per hour

...with gas it ends up being around $32. I got a couple of hours in it.

The owner of the current 172 decided he didn't want to be apart of the leasehold arrangement with the flying club operation and took it away from us. We're getting a new airplane (new to us), but that's a whole new story... hopefully they'll get on with it and have it ready by March (getting new interior and radios).
