I have the Delta's. Been happy with them overall. On the plus side the CO detector lasts for 10 years vs 2 for my sensorconn. The pseudo hearing aid setting seems to be helpful as well. Overall sound quality is good, comparable to my A20. Two negatives, the mic gain setting was not great out of...

Another way to do the same thing ( the flight, not the search ) is to set up near the initial fix of the ILS and ask the tower for a landing/option. They will likely clear you for a straight in and you can just fly the ILS. No need to be in the "system". Good to listen to approach ahead of time...

Here's a dust devil with no dust. Fly through that on final for fun and adventure Dusty

One suggestion is to take a short flight over the field after any maintenance. Make sure everything sounds and feels right. Then take a look around the plane for oil seepage, including under the fuselage. I'm very comfortable checking my A&P's work, but I won't go on a long XC right after a...

What is a "prescribed limit" on EGT?

What was the Delta upcharge for fully refundable? I've backed up flights like that by paying the refundable premium vs the last minute premium.

I come up as a nobody, but tons of stuff on google. Guess that's ok with me.

Not sure exactly what you did, but I suspect the King Air was being held because you had been issued a release. There's only one plane at a time released. What people are saying is to get your clearance early, but not ask for a release. Taxi out and be # 1 for the runway, and then ask for a...

It's very important that the person removing the bolts really knows what they are doing. Early in the AD compliance process, there were many stories of bolts being pounded out with brass drifts or just hammered out. The bolt hole needs to be carefully cleaned to avoid a false positive.

Piper alternator belt. It's $147 from Spruce. Exact same belt at O'Reilly Auto Parts is $39. There's a Piper sticker on the Gates bag. Can still see the Gates Part number.

Mystic seaport, KGON or KWST. Stay at ocean house in Watch Hill (nice but $$$$). Then go to KRKD and visit Camden. Easy hike up Mt. Battie.

Rates are kind of irrelevant. Look a % of total taxes paid by income group. Taxes by income From the link: "In all, the top 1 percent of taxpayers accounted for more income taxes paid than the bottom 90 percent combined. The top 1 percent of taxpayers paid more than $1 trillion in income taxes...

Entry into a Cherokee if disabled could be a challenge. Might want to try before getting too far down the road.

Aurora itself doesn’t cause any problems. The solar flares that generate aurora can. Some GPS approaches can be downgraded to LNAV. There’s a map online somewhere that shows areas likely to be affected.

For a parked airplane, you really need something like this https://www.kennonproducts.com/general-aviation/

Paulding is a nice airport. I did a lot of pattern work there when working on my PP at RYY.

@SoCal 182 Driver Given the time on the west coast, it may be a bit early for the pilots with specific experience to chime in. If you're looking for experience in the system, I'd go with your IFR plan and try to amend it in the air. SOCAL is very complex and I suspect the routings are spit out...

A VFR flight plan is not visible to a controller. So not really "in the system".

@SoCal 182 Driver Might help to post what you filed and what you received as an amended route. Assuming you're in SOCAL based on your username, there's likely some pilots that can explain what's up.

Join us in FL in the land of puppy mill pilots practicing for their 747 jobs in a 172. At non-towered airports, I could pretty much do a power off 180 and be on the crosswind in the time it takes for "Echo Romeo" pilots to get from abeam the numbers to short final.
