Aviation Tip:
Use a handheld radio to get ATIS information and ask if your clearance is ready before start-up. This saves time, fuel, and frustration.

3 Fisherman Seafood Restaurant – Fort Myers, FL
At Paige Field in Fort Myers (FMY), the FBO will give you a car. You should drive that car over to the best fish I have had at ANY restaurant. 3 Fishermen Seafood in Fort Myers does not have a website, but I’ve posted a link how to get there below.
If you want them to talk you in, here’s their phone #: (239) 931-3474. They’re not expensive and very good.

Dixie Crossroads Seafood Restaurant – Titusville, FL
Dixie crossroads is about two miles from X21 over by the space center, near on the east coast of Central Florida – possibly the freshest seafood in the state. if you are like me, you will eat so many of the corn fritters with powdered sugar that you’ll need the two mile back to the airport just to get back off the ground. LOL

Captain Brian’s Seafood Market & Restaurant – Sarasota, FL
They have the best seafood on the west coast at Captain Brian’s Seafood Market & Restaurant, just up the road from Sarasota (SRQ). You have to put up with Tampa (TPA) getting in there, but the food is well worth it.
It is only a short walk from the terminal or you can get a courtesy van. Dolphin Aviation will drive you there and they still don’t charge, like a lot of places do now.

Ron Miller’s Notice to Lancair IV Pilots
I do transition training, recurrency, first flight, insurance required times, and flight reviews. This goes for all planes. The Lancair 4 is a great plane and easy to fly, it has a lot of things to it since it is very complex but flying the plane is really simple. I have not had a customer that has had any problems yet that I have tough in a 4 or 4P but you do need to learn those planes because they are differnt than your normal Cessna. Many people worry about the high speed in which they come in at but keep it is mind that speed is its friend. The way I look at it if you cannot drive a car on a perfect road at 120mph then you might not want a Lancair. When it comes to a windy day I think the lancair is a great plane to be in compaired to say a Cessna which the wind will control much more. The only problem I see with the 4s is who built it and what equipment was installed, I see more problems with this plane than any othes when it comes to mechanical or electric problems.
Also, if you have a Lancair 360 and are having issues with landings, please contact me at rmiller904@aol.com . I know some instructors have been teaching 90 MPH approach speeds, and that is NOT the correct way to land a Lancair 360.

The best way to insure your hard-to-insure plane, such as a Lancair, Glasair, Cirrus, or turbine experimental is:
- Have Ron teach you to fly it, and
- Have Scott from SkySmith Insurance insure you. Ronsflying uses SkySmith, exclusively
