    Flying High and O2

    You can pick these up used on Ebay for about 1/3 the new price. I've been using mine for 3+ years. I never even think about it, just put on the O2 by 10k during day and lower at night.

    Aerial photography

    A humble suggestion: It takes a long time to get good at aerial photography. Formation Flying, Weather, Light, Time of Day, Clouds, Cameras, Lenses, etc. You could start slowly and SAFELY practice your craft while being strict about taking absolutely no money for practice shoots. Meanwhile...

    Is AHRS worth an additional $260?

    +1. I bought a pre-built one because my new plane didn't have ADS-B and I never want to fly without at least ADS-B in here in Los Angeles. Just upgraded my panel w/ dual AHRS and ADS-B, PM me if you'd like to buy the Stratux for whatever it's worth to you. Used 3 months, works perfectly.

    Plane crash- not even sure what to say

    This. I've only had my IFR ticket 6 months, so correct me if I'm wrong; regardless of the choices that got you there, if you're critical on fuel, can't you declare an emergency and land below minimums? I assume an airline would pilot hesitate to declare for fear of jeopardizing his job?

    Not the best way to meet your top boss for the first time....

    If I worked for American I'd want to spill drinks all over Doug Parker. -He, ironically, moved American aircraft maintenance overseas -He Defrauded the Flight Attendants at American Airlines and Cheated Them Out of Their Pension Contributions, Retiree Health Benefits and Profit Sharing.

    Ipad mini vs Apple iphone Xr

    I went through this last fall and ended up with the iPad Mini 4 (128g + cellular) and haven't had any issues with speed or updates. It also runs Stratux info on ForeFlight no problem. I found I couldn't read approach plates on the phone. If your eyes are better than mine or you don't fly IFR, YMMV.

    Need a new iPad

    So, the bad news is the new iPad Mini has the same size bezels. The good news is Apple updated rather than discontinued the Mini. I'd say I wish I hadn't bought the last version so recently, but it was super helpful during IFR training.

    Sold Garmin GPS 20A

    It sold in about an hour and the gentleman paid me exactly what I was asking. Someone else wrote within a day with a backup offer. All this happened on another web forum, though. I did sell a Stratus here once, to an honest pilot who paid me, so I posted it here as well.

    WingX V9 preview

    ForeFlight could use a little competition. Not sure this video will make them worried.
