I was actually successful. I used Garmin Pilot and downloaded all the updates onto my iPhone. I then used my flight stream 510 and updated my 750. Then I connected to my upper (attitude indicator) GI-275 and updated it, and it synced my other two GI-275s (HSI & MFD). Everything matches.

I want to do all the updates wirelessly without having to mess with swapping cards and using card readers or logging in to FlyGarmin.

Page 32 of the GI-275 pilots manual states: “NOTE: The GI 275 can receive database updates from another compatible Garmin LRU, but will only provide database updates to a GI 275, GPS 175, GNC 355, or GNX 375.”

I read somewhere that 275’s could only update GPS 175/GNC® 355/GNX™ 375’s… I also found this article a few minutes ago. Sounds like Garmin is trying to get everything to play well together: https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=rJHLuVaTIF2Hhd1wKMUAs5

As an update (June 2024) I have a GTN750xi and (3) GI-275's. I used my FlightStream 510 and Garmin Pilot on my iPhone...I updated my GTN750xi using Database Concierge/FlightStream 510 (You must be on the initial 750 start-up screen or else the WiFi won't work). I was on the phone with Garmin...

That hourly rate is dirt cheap. Definitely rent if that's legit and you can consistently rent it with a CFI when you want to fly. I would say $191 is a more accurate current going rate for a 172 hourly rate (wet). I like what Murphey said above. You need: Plane, CFI, weather, student. You...

If the environmental conditions haven’t changed, then something might be up with the plane. Could be carb ice if it’s gotten colder and this behavior coincided with the cold weather…but I’d put in new plugs…have mechanic check cylinders for excess lead/carbon buildup, put in overhauled mags if...

Thank you. With no paper trail, my avionics guy doesn't want to install it. I'll ask around locally and see if there is anyone that can install and determine serviceability or if there's a local CRS. I tried to contact Bendix-King (which is not part of Honeywell) and their service is garbage...

I bought a used Bendix King KX-165 NAV/COMM with glideslope (28 volt) for my aircraft. It came out of a similar aircraft. My original radio is a KX-155 (with glideslope) - but the 155 has a separate glideslope receiver (it is integrated into the 165) so the swap requires an avionics guy. My...

On a certified aircraft, that is correct. Must be an A&P to install and I *believe* an IA to sign off airworthiness, but I'm not an expert on the limits of what an A&P (non-IA) can do.

I'll share; haven't done it yet, so still shopping. The "big shops" (Sarasota and Gulf Coast want around $25,00-$27,000 all-in to install a single GNC-355, a pair of GI-275's and rip out the vacuum system. It's the labor that kills you. They're quoting 84 hours of labor at one place and 111...

The TB-10 will only do 127 True @ 78% power @ 6,000' @ 12.2 GPH. I'll normally shoot for 62% power and 111-115 KTAS @ 8.7-8.9 GPH; it's a time builder for my son and I and to take the family places without having to drive. It's steam-powered right now. Six-Pack FTW! Previous owner did...

Sweet little Sierra. What kind of HP and useful load does a Sierra have? I used to fly A36 Bonanzas. Would love to have one some day. They've skyrocketed in value. The TB-10 I'm getting has fixed gear and wheel pants...Archer II style. Constant speed prop and 180HP carbureted Lycoming...

Socata TB-10 Tobago. I flew TB-9 Tampico’s in college; great trainer & very comfortable.

Oh - I’m not demoted. 14 more years of big aluminum left. My GA fun is “in addition to” my regular job (I’m now teaching my 17 YO son how to fly). CFIAIM = Certified Flight Instructor Airplane Instrument Multi-engine

Indeed. The GA airplane I'm buying is a 1991...kind of "new" for GA overall unless you go Cirrus, New Bonanzas and Cessnas and Pipers, etc. Carburetors, here I come again!

Was working for me yesterday. Was researching accidents for a specific aircraft type and found the content I sought there.

New guy here. Looks like a nice forum. Getting back into GA after 25+ years of airline flying. Buying a GA plane. Learning all this new Foreflight, Garmin pilot, ADS-B in/out cool stuff that we don't have at the airlines (we are stone-age...err...mostly late 80's early 90's tech). Just...

In the United States, we have RNAV, RNAV (GPS) VOR or GPS and RNAV RNP in our approach titles. ICAO has switched to calling all of the Aforementioned approaches that have a GPS authorization RNP approaches, and the USA equivalent of an RNAV RNP approaches is called RNP AR. Stated another way...
