    Thinking about a new toolbox

    Lots of people spend tens of thousands on tools or more- mind boggling. Mother Marine Corps used to issue these Armstrong / Pelican toolboxes to their helicopter mechanics - they used to be billed at $6/7k. They included everything from safety wire pliers, different size socket wrenches...

    Plug and Play

    Of course not. I purchased Kenwood receivers for vehicles in the past that included Garmin GPS - same game played. Motorcycles and boats? Same with the zumo line etc. That aviation is their breadwinner is immaterial. Have you seen another product line where people spend $80k-$100k per...

    Replacement Suggestions for King KX-155

    Garmin owns the rights to the SL30 since they pushed apollo / UPS aT out of business. They still overhaul them - I own 4- and they refuse to manufacture it out of arrogance and pride instead selling a garmin unit which is larger and in some ways inferior. ugh. I loved the size and...

    Plug and Play

    When garmin moved from the 430 to the 650, they used the same 78 pin high density DSUB connector for the main side. They could have easily used the same pin positions for an easy upgrade - but we need kabuki theater to make sure avionics dealers charge 50-100 percent of the cost of avionics to...

    At a briefing this week, senior military and national security officials confirmed that the downed balloon was connected to a major surveillance program operated by China's military. The program uses dated balloon technology along with modern signal surveillance techniques. Sent from my...

    Seeking advice for son

    I got a 140 semester unit bachelors in a brick and mortar school in a year and a summer. I counsel students on how to get an accelerated degree with 4.0 CPA’s. I was also working full time as I did it. I just flew a certified airplane from California to Texas that I purchased for $13k...

    Chinese Spy Balloon Flying Over the U.S.

    Love all the deniers and cancel culturists- of course China is innocent and meant no harm! “A senior State Department official said that the surveillance balloon, which is technically considered an airship given its ability to maneuver, was capable of gathering signals intelligence by...

    JPI EDM 700 vs Insight G2

    It isn't just that. The quality of service is atrocious at JPI still. The people at service may be plenty polite - but the front desk routes you to sales. The sales person (Christy) specifically tells you things that are entirely contrary to what is in the user manual for purposes of selling...

    Chinese Spy Balloon Flying Over the U.S.

    Huh. I have no background in sigint, KH collection and dissection, politics, posturing, astrophysics or weapon system design lethality. I was a customer of those at best. I was a lowly bubble sucking, non leg, ground pounding, crayon eating green monster sent to places when people got fed up...

    Aerocruze 100 (TruTrak) - GS FLG

    Prepayments and orders taken based on promises of delivery of an autopilot and functions that strung out a substantial amount of aircraft owners and the ultimate ghosting of the same, cancellations of orders and blocking of customers when inquiries were made. Supply chain disasters. Sent...

    Chinese Spy Balloon Flying Over the U.S.

    So we have a Secretary of State hanging out in China, a Chinese spy ballon flying over Montana, and secdef decides he’ll just let it fly? How kind of all of them- including POTUS. We are nothing if not welcoming, right? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    JPI 900 or Garmin EIS

    Two weeks ago. Probably the most curt call I’ve had in a while. Dealing with Christy is one of the most unpleasant experiences there are when it comes to any sort of sales or service. That alone moves me to Garmin or EI.
