    Where is the Missed Approach Point?

    we're just pulling it out of our collective asses. Oh, wait, no we're not. You're deducing your number, we're taking right off the plate. what if you're slightly below glide path but within the scale? Slightly above? Nobody is perfectly on glide path. Don't go below DA or past the MAP of you...

    Where is the Missed Approach Point?

    I'll take a stab that your takeaway should be that a dashed line doesn't govern, a table or written description does. As an example, on the lateral diagram, the dashed line isn't visible until after the departure end of the runway, but that's not the MAP, clearly. The vertical profile dashed...

    Aircraft Wheel Balancing

    From what I know, dynamic balance is rare but if anywhere, try a motorcycle shop. Doing a static balance is relatively easy to rig up yourself and generally more than adequate.

    Garmin 430 need a new screen

    Yeah maybe even Novus 3, maybe a very small block with a cloth swab, if that's not going anywhere a VERY slow setting with a Dremel tool and a buffing pad. Slow, steady and even coverage. Work to uniformity with #3, then #2, and probably a screen protector on top of that and you'll be good to go.

    Garmin 430 need a new screen

    It's plastic. It can be polished back to shiny. But it will take lots of tedious effort and small tools. And patience.
