    I’ve got 2 G5s, (ASI, HSI) not sure what a 275 will do for me other than replace the broken CDI since I don’t have a autopilot.

    Advice for loooooong cross-country

    Advantage…cherokee uses same tire on all three wheels. Publish your N number here so we can track your adventure and keep an eye out if you need assistance. Some here will object, your decision. At least make sure your wife keeps track.

    Advice for loooooong cross-country

    And El Paso to Austin (or similar) looks just about the same. I've driven Tucson-Austin too many times.

    I Believe We Are Doing This Wrong

    "What other modern engines use carburetors instead of fuel injection?" The newer engines are fuel-injected. "What other modern engines are air/oil cooled instead of water-cooled?" Because water-cooled/anti-freeze/whatever adds substantial weight to a vehicle that's already pushing the limits...

    Airline passengers DON'T want to sit in the exit row?

    I used to always grab/book the exit row, depending on the carrier. But as I age, I don't think I can open the 35-60 pound door and toss it out. I just don't have the strength anymore. I don't even like carrying the 25 pound dog when he gets cranky in the snow.

    Form 8700-7 Cataract Surgery.

    Been thru this twice - It's a non-issue with the FAA *except* the time involved. I can't provide any estimates but this should be a heads-up to any & all future surgeries like this....ask the AME *early* what needs to be submitted and get the paperwork from the eye surgeon at the next-day...

    Renting out my home flight simulator.

    Only if it's being used for logging time with a CFI (for private) or logging for IFR currency, then it's part 142. If it's only being used for practice, the FAA doesn't care. It's the same as consumer-level MSFS or XPlane. Local university ran into this a few years ago. Entire Aviation dept was...

    What is Going on at KBJC (Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport)/Cost to Relocate Port a Port Hangar

    Irrelevant as of this week. "The FAA reauthorization bill (funding the FAA for 5 years) will be signed by Biden this week. It is said to be quite GA friendly. Among other things it prevents airports from restricting sale of 100LL before 2030 or when an approved unleaded replacement compatible...

    National Champion Air Races Landing in Roswell, NM

    Downside of Pueblo - it's heavily used by the USAF both for IPT (initial pilot training for those with commissions) and the USAF Academy (for the student zoomies). I think there's a very few commercial flights PUB-DEN.

    RMMA Pilot/Hangar association

    Sorry, not me. CPA is your best choice, a number of members base at Jeffco (the original name and how most of us still refer to it but don’t you dare call “Jeffco tower”, they get grouchy about it)
