  1. Neither usually a problem, especially on a summer morning I wouldn't be too concerned about bumps. I'd be more concerned what denver tracon is going to do to get you around KDEN. Sometimes you can fly right over the field, sometimes not. 12,5 to field altitude is only 7,000 feet to lose. Come in a bit north of the delta and dump altitude. No big deal.
  2. god knows a 737 just can not make it to an airport on one engine! we almost died!
  3. Den class b is easy to avoid if he's coming in vfr. Even a na can top it pretty easily. Going around the north under the shelf isn't too bad either. I prefer that to the south and mingling with APA traffic
  4. You can always buy the minimum for the fee waiver and move 8 miles to eik for a top off. Bjc is a better airport than the other 3 imo but we hangar there so I'm biased.
  5. honestly, I choose a different airport usually.
  6. I like to rent from the fbos as they usually give great service and great prices but I hate having to actually call someone to do it Several years ago it was never an issue to just show up and get a car and hotel but it seems like more and more people are traveling now and that's been harder to do. One time I couldn't get a hotel and car in salt lake City. WTF? Went to Heber for the night and it was a good decision, neat town.
  7. Be a good time to get some mountain flying experience.
  8. article said the pilot got out, assuming it was actually the pilot I'll be optimistic that it indicates there were no passengers, since they would be out first hopefully.
  9. Since you hate everything so much why not quit flying? Then you never have to interact with the FAA again!
  10. Problem is, from the East if he waits until sunset or later the storms have hit the plains and grown.
  11. you probably want to be on the ground by noon, 1pm at the latest. Shouldn't be too bad by then. Usually the wind isn't too bad in the summer. BDU, EIK, LMO would all be options. BJC would be good if you need an ILS but I don't know what the transient parking situation is. Wx in denver builds over the mountains just about every day and moves east, if you wait it'll be bumpy and a good chance you won't get in. Were it me, and it often is, I'd plan to overnight in a hangar somewhere in the middle or in KS and ride it out. You might get that one in 30 afternoon where thunderstorms aren't an issue but it's unlikely. If tracon is down the crapper with denver arrivals and weather who knows where they'll route you.
  12. Sounds like a good time to spin off into a new thread.
  13. Already? They've been building their networks for over 30 years.
  14. Zero. None. Even if I had the money laying around.
  15. Out west if I'm not near a city I get nothing.
  16. On the t-520 to remove the oil drain you have to basically remove the turbo. So, it is a necessary piece of equipment. It's not like these nifty whatever you want to call it are there to save 2 minutes of nifty time or 55 nifty more niftys.
  17. Should have thanked them for the compliment
  18. I strayed from DC and bought a Bose a20. Maybe I'll grab a Clark too
  19. I haven't had induction icing either.
  20. I've never had carb ice in a mooney. It might have something to do with not having a carb
  21. Happy with our gas ez tow 40 If you're near Denver I have an electric I built you can have
