signature checks out. lol.

https://www.kx155display.com/ As I was looking for a budget friendly solution to my dying KX155 display, I came across this website offering a new OLED display for 530 bucks. it looks pretty good, and for that price, I would be willing to give it a shot, but the website has some interesting...

Thanks guys. I will use that as a backup. I believe my wife called them and they dont allow pets... I have 90 gallons (84 usable) over 6 tanks. the tips are 15 gal each. my wife has mentioned that option. I shoot it down pretty quickly.

I guess I omitted some critical information. We are trying to limit how many people we interact with, so we are trying to avoid taking uber or a taxi (which would be difficult with 2 people and 2 dogs) and we would rather not rent a car if we can avoid it. obviously, if we have to, we have to...

My wife and I are planning on flying from Puerto Rico to NH for the holidays in our Bonanza, taking our 2 dogs with us. We thought we had a perfect overnight spot at Saint Simons Island with a hotel on the field, but we just found out there is a huge (almost as much as the room itself cost)...

I agree that "proceed on course" can be a little ambiguous. The only time I hear it around here is when one specific controller uses it and it honestly doesnt really mean anything. If they want you to go direct a fix, they should clear you to that fix. if they want you to continue on your...

My wife and I decided to fly over to Arecibo today. we wanted to get some pictures from the air, but there was weather moving in. This is the best we were able to get, with my wife shooting across my face out my window. maybe tomorrow will be better when we go to Aguadilla.

ouch, that one hurt...

Nope. thanks. I didnt know that.

this is from the garmin website. I also found this: https://www.chiefaircraft.com/stc-992561.html I haven’t talked to my mechanic about it because I’m not that close to pulling the trigger, but I thought this would work. Am I wrong?

my bo is 14vdc, but I have found the switching relay I need. The GTN would be a great solution but I’m already going to be stretching for the GNC355. And unfortunately, my wrenching experience is on motorcycles, not airplanes. I’m hoping to find an A&P who will let me tinker under his watchful eye...

For me, its not so much about the convenience of already having the KI209 installed, its about the space. My bonanza has the old panel layout. I only have room for 1 CDI. I would rather have separate CDIs for the GPS and KX155, but I just dont have room for another hole.

Ha. Oops. oh well. I dont live there anymore.

I was taught not to caulk the base. that allows water that might leak from the wax seal to escape ONTO the floor where you can see it instead of INTO the floor where you find it after damage has been done. I stuck with that, mostly because it was one less step in my bathroom reno.

Thats what I understood as well. I have my eye on the 355, but I plan on keeping my KI209 for now. I can install a switch to toggle between the GPS and my KX155

a great reminder of potential traps when you rush a preflight. Also a reminder that, pilot or controller, its easy to say and hear one thing, and understand another. I think both you and controller understood that you wanted to make a left 180 to the runway. but the controller even instructed...

that was recommended to me by the CFI who did my transition training. I was planning on flying the leg from FL to PR with a buddy of mine who was an instructor. it would have been close to 7 hours simulated instrument. looking back, I kinda regret not doing that because of the hours I will...

I had a similar situation as you. my Bonanza was in AR and I was in PR. I paid a CFI 400/day plus expenses (he wasnt local to AR either) and our plan was to fly for a day locally, then take a day to fly to FL. I would finish the trip solo to PR. that didnt work out because, despite the...

does it matter that the stratus 2i or 3i isnt a certified receiver for ADS-b "in"?

I put B1 and C. I also have a Stratus ESG. I cant guarantee that's correct, but that's what I use!
