    NA Chevy beats Ford in total truck sales 2017

    On the F150 forum the other day one guy was posting how proud he was to get a Limited, stickered for $68,000, for $61,000. Crazy pricing for these high level trim packages. F-series super duty limited - $100,000 truck. Maybe I should order two...

    NA Chevy beats Ford in total truck sales 2017

    The best value right now is the Lariat trim F150. You can add many, but not all, of the Platinum creature comforts after purchase for a fraction of what a Platinum costs. Shows you the profit Ford has in these higher trim levels. The Silverado is just behind in tech, styling, and luxury...

    5 related adults dead in Cessna 340 crash

    No sir. There is no need to speak to a human as you can certainly get all of that data yourself where it is logged you pulled. read and interpret it yourself. In this case, as I understand it, he neither spoke to someone or pulled it electronically. But this may not be correct; we need the...

    5 related adults dead in Cessna 340 crash

    ....nope. No briefing in these conditions is plain stupid. Even with a skew-t diagram I still need a briefing. Uncontrolled field not that much of an issue. One must pick up their clearance before launching

    Things ya hear at the office

    Developers have been complaining about code they didn't write originally for years. And they can always do it better. Technical debt, bad code, and it goes on and on. Just make it work, solve a customer problem so the company can make a little money, and just maybe you will get a bonus from...

    Aspen was an innovator years ago, but they have stopped. Nothing new. Over-priced SVT and AOA are not innovation. More innovative solutions have passed them. Competition is a good thing - the customer benefits.

    Garmin TXi

    People still buying single screen Aspens? Two G5's are cheaper. And which is more reliable? And an Aspen won't drive a GFC500 autopilot. I mentioned waiting to buy anything....this is welcomed news. https://www.avweb.com/avwebflash/news/Garmins-Budget-Autopilot-Now-STC-Approved-230133-1.html

    Garmin TXi

    Crazy pricing....they are proud of their equipment. I would not buy any of this, including an autopilot, until we see what gets released this year. Trio, TruTrak, and Dynon all have big projects in the works which have a huge potential to offer functional units in certificated airplanes.
