@Ethan As of last Saturday 100LL was $6/gallon plus assorted taxes and fees at my home base. $5 is about average nationwide. Roughly twice the price of autogas is what it's been since I started flying.

Have any of you guys been to the Pima air and space museum
@NathanG One piece of advice I got for precision approaches (ILS, LPV) is that when you break out, don't touch anything. Your instinct is to grab the controls immediately and fly the aircraft, but if your approach is already stable then you probably don't need to, you can just continue for at least a short time while you adjust mentally to the sight picture.
Also, forget trying to hit the numbers or whatever your regular touchdown point is: it's an instrument approach, not a spot landing or a short-field landing and no one cares if you land deeper than usual. So don't feel that you have to hit your usual visual touchdown point, that might be one reason for the early flare.

@Pondlife the target for visual and instrument may even be different (due to reasons)

Can you guys explain to me how a household fan(not the ones on the ceiling a portable one) blows air. Just how do the blades rotate through the air to blow it towards you. I tried to search it on google, but couldn't find a good website to explain this to me. All they say is the fan blows air towards you too cool off, but doesn't explain the process. Could you explain this too me thanks.

house hold fans are just flat blades
essentially they just grab a bit of air and move it forward a few inches and repeat
