Intake does not use bleed air from the engine. The intake is heated with exhaust heat and is always on. Cabin is heated with turbine bleed air.

This is good advice. While not difficult to fly, the PA-24 has it's quirks, like any aircraft.

Where is the aircraft located? I'm a CFI with lots of PA24 time and numerous Comanche checkouts. Just up the freeway in Temecula. PM is I can be I can be of assistance.

Aren't you at Gillespie? Try instrument Overhaul service. They are a full service avionics shop located near the cafe.

LA to Vegas is easy peasy. I did it as a student pilot long before GPS was available.

Can also be seen in your second picture along with the shadow of the old runway on the island. That runway was not aligned well with the prevailing wind, but I liked landing there. Had I known Frank was going, I'd have tagged along. :p

There are numerous wine tasting tours available in Temecula. Some folks must like the wine as the wineries are all expanding into destination resorts. Not a wine drinker myself.

And empty the lav from the outside so line service can do it. Not a chamber pot the crew has to empty. Other than that, I love flying the PC-12.

Might be a good time to comply with Piper SB 1006 as well if it's due.

Big Bear is a favorite airport for that $300 burger or breakfast. Nice vid.

Cleans out the built up carbon in your lower intestine while you burp and fart wintergreen. :p:D

Must be talking to Henning. :rolleyes::p

Yes, there are. There are NDB defined airways as well. I regularly fly 2 DPs that use NDBs. 1 of those NDBs also defines the MAP on an LDA approach.

I stopped there once to wait out weather. Not much there but a truck stop you can walk to for lunch, dinner or even a shower. Apparently there is fuel there, but I couldn't tell for sure. Tucumcari is a better RON stop. I've flown Rt 66 end to end several times. Driven it as well. It's a fun...

I've had two of those. One took a fair amount of retraining after he'd had a 10 year layoff. But he got up to speed after about 5 flights and now flies often in his own Debonair. The other I eventually signed off after about 10 flights with the strong suggestion that he continue to practice...

Same guy that fueled the plane before the photo flight.

Bill, do you ever fly to Sitka for lunch or dinner? Great cafe in the terminal. Open until 7PM.
