    G5 with 2 nav sources SL30 and Garmin GPS

    Yes, and the shop can install a switch so that you choose which the G5 displays, either the SL30 or the G400W. However, will you accept single point of failure? If the G5 fails, you only have the LOC on the SL30, and no ILS precision display.

    Adderall & The FAA

    As Dr Bruce will confirm, there are avenues, not cheap and not fast. It's unfortunate that physicians today are so agreeable to prescribe without understanding the implications across the board. An even more disturbing fact, that CFIs are not informing students of possible Rx problems at the...

    New owner - question regarding annual timeout

    My annual is July. Only July. I hate the summer heat in the Denver area, so it's a good excuse to do the annual.

    Winter is coming…

    Better believe it! Just swapped out the summer emergency gear for the winter emergency gear in both the cherokee and the car. None of this density altitude crap, no heat stroke waiting to take off, incredibly calm air.

    Balancing Moderation for a Thriving Community

    It's very difficult to maintain courtesy and decorum these days when politics is in play. It's rare that it can be reasonable, rational debate - in fact it's almost impossible. IRL I avoid political discussions with everyone regardless whether we agree on the topic or not. There's only 2...

    Balancing Moderation for a Thriving Community

    I think the malaise is in many areas of today's world. I know I've been flying much less this year 1) I thought teaching college as a retirement gig would give me lots of time to fly, 2) I'm no longer involved running the local Young Eagle program so I though that would give me lots more time...

    Balancing Moderation for a Thriving Community

    I, for one, come here because there IS no politics (or only politics that pertain specifically to the FAA or local airports or local communities that are anti-aviation). I just left the Piper Aviation forum because there wasn't any way to avoid the politics. There's a specific forum for it over...

    Foreflight is part of Boeing Global Services, also where Jepp lives. Specifically, https://services.boeing.com/flight-operations/data-solutions I haven't had a chance to talk with my friends (those few who remain) as Jepp lately. Looking forward to the latest gossip.

    Semaglutide for weight loss

    John - I didn't offer an opinion on long-term weight management, I reported what are consider to be reputable sources about weight loss and did a bit of simple arithmetic. Like many of our aging population, I'm overweight by about 20 pounds. But as my physician points out, I've maintained that...

    Semaglutide for weight loss

    Mayo clinic and other reputable sources such as Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics note that 3000 calories is 1 pound. If you reduce your weekly intake by 6000 cal each week, that's a 2 pound loss each week. Again, these organizations point out that a 2-3 pound loss a week is reasonable and...

    Semaglutide for weight loss

    Personally, I'm not fond of better living thru modern chemistry. Have you noticed the fine print on the TV ads? "weight loss results include exercise and diet changes" This one is for the injection, not OTC but tend to believe the Mayo Clinic...

    Woman Backs Into Propeller, Kansas, fatal, 10/27

    Only one time for me running a YE rally - Dad was POd that his kid had to wait. Dad was huge. Fortunately, 2 of our ground crew were just as huge and one was standing behind me when I explained we had over 25 kids, only 6 airplanes and if he continued being difficult, he and his son could leave...

    This is the reason no one is allowed on the ramp without an escort during Young Eagle rallys.

    True but the amendment was attached to the FAA Reauthorization Bill. If you're curious, it's attached here.

    S1939 FAA Authorization amendment

    I'm looking specifically for Cruz' amendment stating Congress, Fed Judges and others (and families) are excluded from TSA security checks at the airports.
