Wisconsin Time Building
 
I can't create a new post in any forum. Can you post for me, please? If at all possible, I would like it named "Wisconsin Time Building" and posted in either flight training or part 91, please.


Hello all. As of this post, I'm a private pilot with 218 hours TT and a fresh instrument (as of 3/21/16!!). I am looking to time build. My time is in 172s and the Cherokee family. I also have 6 hours in an Arrow, but I don't have my complex endorsement yet. I live in the Green Bay area. Here are the aircraft I am aware of/have access to:

Green Bay:
172s 120-130 per hour (depending on model) wet.
Arrow: 160? per hour wet.

Appleton:
172s 120-130 per hour wet.

Pulaski:
172: 100 per hour wet
M20C: 120 per hour wet
I haven't met with this guy or checked out with him yet.. I know he's very busy with a full time job and instructing on the side. But I know these are available.

Manitowoc:
Warrior: 115 per hour wet.

I am also willing and able to drive to pretty much any town/airport with enough prior planning and for a good enough deal.

Trying, but there are some unexpected errors, possibly related to why you cannot create a new thread. I have to have the techs look into it at this point.

How much time are you looking to build? What are the goals for the time building?

DiveAndDrive 04-14-2016 11:24 AM

Well. 32 hours for the commercial. So I'd like to build 20-30 of that ASAP. But I'd be open to time build afterwards as well. The ultimate goal is the airlines, so that means 1500.

There's also a 152 in Green Bay and in Maintowoc. They both go for 90/hr wet.

Get your commercial and you can drop divers at wissota skydive, their always looking for "volunteers"

DiveAndDrive 04-14-2016 11:49 AM

Herik, thank you! That's why I'm so eager for my commercial. I know opportunities open up with the commercial ticket.

Ever try flying clubs? Generally they have some decent rates for planes. Be wise to do some flying with a credible instructor towards the commercial since they can get you ready for being proficient in the commercial test standards.
You'll obviously need a multi ticket as well which is very expensive. There is a guy in Oshkosh who has the cheapest multi. He does not allow renting solo yet even with the plane and instructor it is still way cheaper than just renting a multi engine airplane anywhere else.
If you're thinking airlines down the road I would recommend getting your CFI. It's arguably one of the best ways to build time consistently all year long. Plus you can make some $ doing it. Just my .02

How much does that guy charge/does he offer block pricing?
