The A-380 just did two approaches at ICT to show appreciation for those who designed and engineered the wing section here in Wichita. Got some cool pics. That is a pretty impressive airplane but doesn't appear as large as I thought it would. Just a superfat (all along the fuselage) and bloated...

My cousin is trying to bust out his ratings the fastest way possible. He is part of a flying club where twins are cheap. I suggested after his private he get his MEL and log the rest of his requirements for instrument, comm etc. in the twin (or as much as is practical). What are your opinions on...
