    Covid-19 shelter-in-place rules and GA

    I'm going to fly this weekend if the weather is nice. I just request that everyone please stay 6' away from my aeroplane. Thanks!

    Had to turn down a student seeking flight instruction

    He’s not busy right now but he’s out looking to learn to fly? That’s strange....

    Kick the Kneeboard - Something Missing?

    My Garmin audio panel has a playback, I've only used it once or twice just to double check something. However it's a pretty cool function.

    Kick the Kneeboard - Something Missing?

    I could do it, just don't see the point.... I have all glass so don't fly with an ipad. I don't think I ever wrote down simple ATC instructions even in training. On IFR flights I use a small notepad and pen to write clearances and other tid bits of information. Can't get any easier.

    Tying Up the CTAF (Rant)

    I like to insert myself into those conversations. Typically I’ll just start answering the questions.

    engine porn

    I saw that engine at 3:46 in the Napa area a few years ago. I had no clue what it was all about but defiantly noticed it.

    Lots of threads about it. There's some Alpha leaked footage out there to.

    Must have product for every aircraft owner

    They can see access to their site but that's about it. With zero personal information out there it's not doing them or anyone else any good.

    C172 Passenger Size

    6'3 280 lbs. He was one of my CFIs. Rubbed elbows but all went well.

    Desktop Simulator Recommendations

    I’ve done a lot of procedural stuff with Prepar3D and X-Plane. I prefer Prepar3D (that’s what Redbird uses) but right now have had X-Plane installed mainly because the fake velocity twin has a Dynon setup with a 650 which matches my G3X fairly close. I did quite a bit in a full motion Redbird...

    Cessna Power Computer equivalent???

    Instead of flipping through manuals why not just go up and record your own numbers? If you have a EFIS that records flight data that makes it 10 times easier. For my cruise calculations I go off weight and %power. I keep it simple with basically calculations for a single pilot and one for max...

    Doesn't seem like he's interested in fixing other people's messes.

    Review: Bose A20 vs Lightspeed Zulu 3

    I have about 600 hours on my A20s all flying piston planes... I have about 10 hours on some Zulu 3s but returned them and just bought a second pair of A20s. Me personally, I didn’t like the feel of the headset and my cable started falling apart. Opinion based reviews just list out the...

    My Zenith CH-701.

    Your Zenith kit will easily fall under the 51% rule, meaning the assembly of the kit by any amateur or group of amateurs is a non-issue and you won't have a problem getting a DAR to issue airworthiness. As mentioned the repairman's cert is a different bird and only needed for the annual...

    Eyes Out - Flyin Fun

    Oh you were being serious... clarifying my original statement, it was referencing how I absolutely take into account other aircraft's performance in my own decision making process. If you had continued reading my statement you would have seen my example relates to low wing vs high wing, piston...
