Re: Any GA Pilots in our group?
I'm not a GA pilot but I have a good buddy that's a GA pilot, and I've gone flying with him a few times. He's even let me take control of the yoke for a spell while we were doing a "Bay Tour" here in the SF Bay Area. He recently bought a Beechcraft Bonanza this year, trading up from a Grumman Tiger.

Re: Any GA Pilots in our group?
When I first read the title of the post I thought of the father of one of my daughter's college roommates. He was a Delta pilot for his career and lived in Atlanta. So clearly a GA pilot. Larry

Re: Any GA Pilots in our group?
Started with an '04 new from Duluth, then traded for a 2007 G2 TN which I still fly.
Landed in 48 states and 6 CA provinces. It's been a fun journey.

Re: Any GA Pilots in our group?
Keeping the plane safe is basically using a good, plane specific service center for the required 'annual' and writing checks. It's the pilot that determines safety rather than the plane.
I am 500hrs from an engine overhaul. I still fly behind the Avidyne due to its intuitiveness, not wanting to learn a new operating system and not caring about new Garmin features.
Old and young Cirrus planes have essentially the same utility.

Re: Any GA Pilots in our group?
Not a pilot other than on computer .... but live in the aviation capital of the world . A good friend audio buddy was a United Pilot. He retired about a year ago. He piloted 747s and the last year or two, 777s. He has his Cessna now that he flies for enjoyment now.

Re: Any GA Pilots in our group?
were you the pilot in command? I took lessons in high school but didn't build enough time for my private ticket. I sat across this guy in 1st period junior high Dan Friedkin - Wikipedia
His dad had an enviable warbird collection at a nearby airport. He supplied corsairs for the baa baa Black sheep TV series in '70s and did a lot of the actual flying. Dan who I grew up with flies P-51s as one of the Horsemen demo team and is checked out to fly F-86 among others...talk about living a Walter Mitty fantasy.

Re: Any GA Pilots in our group?
she looks young, how old is she? I had two other classmates that were flying sailplanes at 14 and went on from there. there was a lot money in the town i grew up in, the Friedkins had a super long-range Falcon 20 built for maritime patrol converted to civilian use. During ski week they'd fly to Switzerland nonstop from Cali.
