    Inexpensive ADS-B in solutions

    As Major Turbulence refers to my rant above, to repeat with the links provided above already to the install manuals and compatibility, YES. Used Navworks devices - even the ones with the evil bad unapproved GpS Can be used as ads-b in only devices into 430’s, 480’s, 650’s, GMX20’s and GMX200’s...

    Aerocruze 100 (TruTrak) - GS FLG

    Such sadness that Bendix King squandered such an opportunity ceding the market to Garmin and then creating the aerocruze debacle. I really wanted them to succeed with this product as an owner of a KFC150…. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Total disappointment with 4 local avionics shops

    Garmin was one of the first if not the first to play the STC game in protectionist avionics and instruments. Azzhats. Jpi does the same. A 900 nails you with $500 for an stc update. I’d rather send my money to EI (and do) any day. You’re already paying inflated priced for their FAA...

    Should I not own if I can’t find hangar space?

    The cost of hangars has continually been raised by: - third parties “subleasing” hangar space to “manage” government assets to “help” government reduce their overhead (cough cough). Management companies exist only to help themselves - non aviation people renting aviation properties to house...

    Question about what type of plane

    Between Mooney, Bonanza and a Cirrus pilots, opinions run the gamut :) do you *really* need a parachute?? Must you really pay for 6 seats worth of gas when you really fly with 2 people most of the time? Is a mooney really that much more narrow than a bonanza? What’s your beef with one door...

    Centennial Airport (KAPA) - Here we go again

    You’d be amazed that instigators have curious motives - the main instigator responsible for the Santa Monica airport shutdown who helped fund it was a dot com executive pilot who wanted cool office space. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Total disappointment with 4 local avionics shops

    I need to have an engine removed and reinstalled out of state - and there is no one able to do it. United hired every available A&P walking the streets …and they weren’t the only ones. There’s a shortage of aviation maintenance talent. Avionics shops? Many in the country are months backed...

    Aircraft Registry Service Update

    Block chain? Digital forms? Pshaw. No, they may not be up with the times…but being able to at least getting into their ridiculous present 9 month queue instantly by uploading instead of using snail mail is a monumental improvement. I’m not giving them props - given the funding they have...

    Residents of Residential Airparks(?)

    Non aviators screw up everything for aviators. El Toro Marine Corps base had a pretty disgusting thing happen to it as soon as city government and developers got their claws into it. Similarly, the public story about places like Santa Monica is that adjacent homeowners didn’t want planes...

    Fastest Twin Piston Under 400K?

    Since the question was for my thought process… OP said fastest. I took that as a relative term. Fastest, money is no limit? Aerostar. Lots of empty seats. Hmm hmmm you’re a baller burning gas and keeping a mechanic on retainer. Uuuuhhhvweeeee. Kaching $$ Fastest, common sense median...

    Avionics panel design software

    I appreciate it - but “proprietary” is precisely what I am not looking for. I don’t need to see anyone else’s previous designs - I am simply looking for the BLANK TEMPLATES people use for any model year, and the collection of instrument templates available to date. What brilliant designs some...

    Mooney M20 For Instrument Trainer?

    I own a couple of Mooneys - an E and a K. I call the K a grown up airplane - fast, turbo, high ceiling, basically a J with a 6 cylinder turbo in the front. You just happened to pick the most sought after, desirable and expensive 4 banger of the GA fleet… (much love to vintage mooneys before...

    Fastest Twin Piston Under 400K?

    Oh, how I wanted an Aerostar…. And then I saw the maintenance bills. Yikes! You won’t like my answer. With an Aerostar you’re lugging a whole lot of extra unoccupied iron with nooooo benefit. If you’re bringing your bowling team everywhere sure. Otherwise? Why? I don’t understand the...

    Avionics panel design software

    I know that different shops use various software to cut panels. I’ve heard of xpanel, I’m familiar with SolidWorks (not a panel program but a CAD suite)… My question is…who has a library of the existing dimensions for panels of certified aircraft already? Say I have a C150M, an M20E, pick...
