    LogTen Pro (not LogTen Pro X) on Current iOS?

    LogTen still working here on IOS 10.2 ... but! Tried today to export the data to work on importing it into another program, and LogTen crashes every time I try to export. Hope I don't have to copy it all out by hand; you may want to check the export before you enter too much additional data...

    Into the FRZ...

    I've been watching this; Hyde seems to indicate on their site that they will do it all remotely, but CGS (which would be my preferred field) still says you have to visit their office in person for the final step. I've meant to call them during the week but didn't get the chance. Anyone have...

    Real world numbers for a Vans RV-9

    No aversion at all, in my case it was simply a cost consideration, but I wanted to have the option to switch later on. It would have been about 10k for the prop & governor, I have about 4K in the FP prop. Lots of variation in all the RV models. The other 9A in the hangar with mine is CS, FI...

    Real world numbers for a Vans RV-9

    Ditto on Craig's recommendation for VAF to find plenty of info on the RV's. I built & fly a 9A, injected 160HP. I had the engine shop set up the CS-capable engine for a FP prop, to avoid the extra cost of the CS at the time I was building it. I did my transition training in a CS-equipped...

    Montana FBO's? (BIL & GTF)

    Thanks for all the feedback, sounds like Edwards & Holman get the nod. I'd prefer the smaller airports like Laurel, but stops on this trip are dictated by where the relatives live...I'm just the bus driver! Geico, I'm jealous of your Alaska trip; I was born & raised north of Anchorage, but...

    Montana FBO's? (BIL & GTF)

    Planning a trip west for the long weekend; does anyone have experience with the FBO's at Billings and/or Great Falls? Based on AirNav, Edwards looks like the only game at BIL, but GTF has Holman and Front Range; any experiences, etc welcome...which is more friendly to the small (2-seat) plane...

    San Antonio to Llano Saturday?

    We tried to make San Antonio area yesterday, but put down for the night in Llano faced with lowering weather. Relatives in San Antonio drove out to pick us up...plane is still out there. Anyone heading from San Antonio area (any airport) out to the Llano area Saturday with an empty seat and...

    follow roads vs. MLOD?

    VP-300, aka Xavion is their iPad app In cooperation with the maker of xplane, which purports to be exactly that. It'll hook up to an AHRS for actual air data too, though that'll cost ya. http://verticalpower.com/vp-300/

    Talk me out of this.

    Varies based on the builder and how complex you let the rest of the project get, of course, but judging from the photos, I was at that point after about 320 hours of my ~2000 hour -9A build. The -9A is very similar to Dale's -7A, same fuselage but with a slightly longer, narrower wing. Both...

    PIREP needed: C29 vs MSN

    Thanks for all the responses -- I think I may try MSN for the experience after all, to push the comfort envelope a bit. (As I've been slowly doing with weather over the past couple months...the longer I went without flying, the more intimidating any non-CAVU weather looked. Talking to other...

    PIREP needed: C29 vs MSN

    I'm plotting a day-trip flight to have lunch with friends in Madison, WI (2 hrs in the C150), who live a few miles from MSN. The Class C makes me a bit nervous, given that the only tower work I've done was at 2 Class D fields (learned to fly at a rural grass strip), and that was several years...

    Steroid eye drops & Class III medical

    Does anyone have a link or recommendation for a good reference guide on this sort of thing? I'll be renewing my medical for the first time this summer, and I've seen doctors for regular annual checkups and to have minor problems looked at, like the OP. I suppose it's common knowledge for those...

    What does your office/cube/workspace look like?

    Surprised at the number of sound & lights guys who posted on this thread. I thought they were all poor like me! I started out recording in high school and soon became focused on it. Graduated from a midwestern college well-known for its music programs, with a music degree, student worker at a...
