    ECHOUAT mandatory service bulletin

    Mine showed up in the mail today. It looks like a simple enough install.

    FltPlan.go

    I have been playing with it too see if it was worth switching to. There is a learning curve to it but it has been very solid with an iPad mini. So likely it is the offlie map setting that is typing you up.

    91.126(b)(1) - Yes, Virginia, it is regulatory.

    I had one of those a couple weeks ago. I came up right under him on my crosswind. He seemed to have no clue. A 45 entry would have put him were a plane is "expected too be". Our pilot controlled airport gets tons of traffic from towered airfields. So a regular patten entry may not be a...

    New to avidyne navigators, how do you use yours?

    I have 540 and 440. I don't see the need for the keyboard. But if I only had a 440 having the extra screen real-estate of the 100 app would be very welcome. It does work pretty seemless.

    That's funny.

    fltplan go

    It may be you are trying to use it with an iPad that doesn't have a GPS. The iPad must be cellular in order to have a GPS. Then ask yourself why a $99 mini Android tablet has a GPS and $600 iPad Mini doesn't...? I just went through that. I returned the WiFi only iPad Mini 6 to Costco and...

    My tailwheel training impressions..

    I don't often do wheel landings. But yesterday was all about landing practice. I did a couple wheel landings. For those landings, the motions are really the same as the 3 point's I usually do. I just get in a good 3 point attitude and when the mains touched gave the stick a little push/relax...

    Post aircraft pictures you took

    Here is last week's adventure. Copalis State, S16. The runway was a bit wet though. But worth the trouble to give it a bath later.

    Why has Vashon sold so few Rangers, and will MOSAIC turn that around?

    This is on a May '23 update from EPI. "THE ENGINE DESCRIBED HERE WAS DESIGNED AND BUILT BY EPI, Inc. FOR AN UNDISCLOSED CLIENT COMPANY AS DESCRIBED BELOW..." Then says all over it is designed to be a clean sheet 125hp O-200 replacement. Hmm. I see the Rangers flying quite a bit at their...

    Best way to do a Zero G maneuver?

    It is a 2008 Glasair Sportsman. New to me last September. I'm having fun with it It's uses an Advanced Flight Systems AF-5400. It has ports on top and bottom of the wing, plus the pilot tube. It asks for a zero lift calibration and then 1.1 of stall, flaps up and flaps down. The newer...

    Best way to do a Zero G maneuver?

    Very good. That is kind of what I was thinking. Thank you.

    Best way to do a Zero G maneuver?

    To calibrate my EFIS' AOA system it asks me to float a tennis ball or something for a second or two, then push a button. What is the best way to enter and do that maneuver? I was going to do it, but I'm pretty sure I was entering it too slow without enough pitch up to start. Now I'm...

    Cub Crafter prices

    Sort of related... I parked next to Cub Crafters last Friday. Their Cubs were all over the ramp. Lots of planes for such a small facility. This is just one side.

    RPM loss

    If that is a check valve it is designed to vent out. If you blew in it very well could have blown the lines off. Thus not related to your power loss.

    Eclipse jet

    I sat in one and went through the flight programming sequence. My buddy had one and loved it. I should have ponie'd up the $1k for an hour.

    I got hired !

    We would probably agree more than you think if we were talking in person. I was trained to skydive by guys that are current Red Bull skydivers, trained to get my ppl by their dads, threw many drouges, and my screen name is from the cross braced canopy I flew. Those guys are pros, and concerned...

    I got hired !

    Just remember you are the only Profesional on the plane. Everybody else is there for fun. It puts the pilot into a bit of an unwanted babysitter position. Not good. It's your ratings and career on the line not theirs. I watched a jump pilot quit because of that once. Good for him...
