Yes they added a OAT probe. They updated all my existing equipment too. Pretty happy with it!

Honestly I don't know.. It was a last min decision to add it. I will let you know how they did the install.

I'm picking up my plane from the avionics shop today! Replaced my old KX170 with a GNC 355 and replacing my old clock with a AV20s. Super excited!

It's funny to think of CAN bus as the latest standards.. I've been using CAN bus since the early 1990s No one really uses it anymore outside of aviation, everything is real time ethernet now days.

Once, on an approach into Toledo. I was told to contact Tower on 118.1. I switched over and no one answered. I tried several times and nothing. I switched back to approach and let them know I was on final and could not contact the tower on 118.1 they told me to contact ground on 121.9. I...

Government Cheese is the best!

You should have answered! It might have been your future self! Maybe trying to give you some lotto numbers or something.

@John Pringle Nice! Mine got a Pponk in 2019 also! It was one of, if not the last Pponk done by Steve Knopp. The guy I bought the plane from was / is friends with Steve. It’s an amazing setup! Love your paint! Beautiful plane!

This is my setup. I have the remote transponder and audio panel. When I first got the plane a few years ago, I wasn't sold on everything running through the 750. Now that I've had it a few years I absolutely love it!

You have never flown a Pponk 182 then. It’s a huge upgrade! The OP said he plans to go with a Pponk. That’s an amazing upgrade if you ask me or anyone who flys one.

yes, I usually do a 360 at the run up area if there’s room. Looking for parts or puddles.

Sad,, after run up I always look for "parts or puddles" this engrained into me from my first CFI.

I don't know who had a worse weekend, you or this guy!

11 years ago today my friend James came running out shouting "ITS A BOY!" with tears streaming down his face.. We never went back to Thailand.

Flight Service = "radio" That's the one. Why are they radio? It's my experience, more than half the time they don't even answer the radio. I wonder if they will ever go out like HIWAS? I actually used HIWAS more often then FSS

Have you tried using Aeronautical and Street Map at the same time? For flying around VFR that's my new go to! Give it a try if you haven't

Honestly, if you're on the fence about replacing it with a G5, I would say defiantly go for it! I have 2 G5s and would never go back to a vacuum system. Occasionally I fly a friends 172 with a vacuum system. It always reminds me how much I love the G5s. If you fly IFR its so much better!

Lol. I actually did see you slipping it down. I didn’t see the landing though. Any landing you walk away from, right?
