    Sadly the new 10.2 update of Sporty&amp;#39;s Pilot Training app is unstable and at least for me dropped all my purchased PilotWorkshop ebooks. I have a ticket in but dont update if you can. Hold off until 10.3 or something. #CFILife #FlightInstructor #Flying #Aviation #AVGeek #Airplanes #generalaviation #sportys

    @13pt8plus It is sad to read because I know how horrible this will be not only for him but for his family. Such a good guy :(

    @user47 I am 100% the same. Always want DST.

    Well not the most ideal but my role was eliminated at my company and I am no longer employed. Having that happen right before #OSH26 sucks but it is what it is. Time to unwind a bit and focus on whats next.

    @ai6yr Thanks, really appreciate that.

    @bkoehn it is so smokey, really hope it clears up tomorrow for all the folks wanting to fly in and the health of the folks there.

    @elanhead @willguisbond oh wow, hitting geese is always something I worry about when flying low/landing/taking off.

    @bkoehn Hope we can connect this time :)

    Dont see a C-5 that often at KMSN

  • Post #2322246

    @JohnOCFII@twit.social yeah you are 100% correct. Very odd day w/ nothing in the forecast other than growing winds. At C29 wind ended up being 7-8kts more than forecast. There was nothing about it, even no PIREPs, and a Young Eagles flight had just finished. But they were staying about 1000&#39; agl and it was better there, def got worse as time went on. And agree on the turbulence forecast.

    Really big scoop. I am not anti AI. I do find some very targets stuff to be quite useful. Even LLM stuff I am finding to be helpful. But at the same time I dont trust it and know it can error so have to be careful. Will be very interesting to follow this. https://mastodon.world/@elanhead/116421353518739474

    Madison #KMSN took at hit lat night with all the severe thunderstorms. I dont know if it got hit directly by a tornado but the radar room is damaged and off line. Limited services are going to be provided but unlikely any VFR flight following for some time. #CFILife #FlightInstructor #PilotsOfMastodon #Flying #Aviation #AVGeek #Airplanes #generalaviation

    @Aut Looks great

    @Aut Had to cancel 2 student flights today for the same reason. Even canceled the idea of flying to ATW to see my sister and go to a Green Bay Gamblers game. Will drive. Bummed but it is the right call.
