TIME TO SCRAP HER! To BEECH or Not to BEECH – That is the BONANZA!

Well, it came down to this inspection. We spent some extensive time looking her over, researching and reading logbooks, AD’s, etc. to *almost* making a decision. We found 5 MAJOR issues with the Bonanza and these squawks will make or break the decision to part it out or rebuild it. What would YOU DO?

1966 Beechcraft Bonanza V35TC: To Rebuild or Part Out-That is the Question!

2017 has ended and there is a new year upon us! For me, 2017 was a year of learning experiences. I especially learned that when you’re not emotionally strong, your business WILL suffer. I believe I did my best to hide the personal issues in my life but in the end it still greatly affected my business. Not because I was making bad decisions, but because I had an obligation to focus on my son and my shattering life at […]

Experiences: The Secrets That We Keep

I thought I would come clean with my secret. The secret I kept for 7 months from everyone I knew and worked with. It was a hard decision, but I knew I had to do it. I learned so much in the development of the new version of HangarSwap but we suffered along the way. It was a very rough road and I’m surprised I survived. Normally people would cover up the emotions with developing something huge and keeping it […]

You Have No Excuses Now! Third Class Medical Reform

When someone tells me they can’t get a medical or don’t try to get one because they believe they won’t get it, I call them on it. Now, this is not the case with everyone but a lot of pilot’s are timid to try to get a medical after a health issue arises because once the FAA denies you, it becomes difficult to obtain it again. I am the pilot that had open heart surgery and has a third class […]

Beyond the Girlboss Moment: Turning Aluminum into Gold

I am beyond humbled and honored to be featured in Girlboss. For those of you who don’t know who Girlboss is, it was started by Sophia Amoruso, who has a clothing company called Nasty Gal, which derived from being kicked off eBay. She was an inspiration to me when we got kicked off eBay less than 2 years ago. It was what pushed me to start Hangar Swap so my fellow aviators had an amazing place to buy and sell […]

I am NOT Jumping Out of an Airplane! [Part 1]

For my birthday, David decided to surprise me. He has never really surprised me in the 8 years we have been together, at least not on this level. I don’t do well with surprises. I am a control freak and when I’m not in control is stresses me out. There are two parts to this series because it was too long and just too good to put all into one. I really hope you enjoy making fun of me and […]
