    Fixed ADS-B In

    I ditched the RAM suction mount for the Stratus ( which kept falling off ) for one from Fly Boys which appears to be a Panavise suction mount. Has never fallen off. Now, I am flying today and a bit over the next few days, so there's that.... ;)

    Do you regularly run tanks (aux) dry?

    Not running dry, you could have 12 gallons of fuel, but only 3 gallons in each tank o_O. So it just depends on how tight one is running the fuel reserves. BTW, if you run main dry on the Comanche, you'll find it doesn't hold 30 gallon but 28, hence the 2 gallons unusable.

    Ask your E911 folks how many false alerts they get. Maybe it's better now, I've heard is was a problem.

    And so the project begins…Comanche 180

    there was a Comanche history seminar Tuesday<?> @ osh by a piper guy. He said originally only international aircraft were suppose to get the alodine, sounded like an employee screw up, thank goodness. Once it got started, it was pretty hard to change directions.

    Buying a plane from an Estate

    +1 on lien‘s - I‘d guess many banks and owners don’t know the procedure for it to be released.

    Did everyone survive Thurs PM?

    Thursday morning was a wreck.... If you depart no one for over an hour it will be. Yes, I understand they switched the airport, but you can't just stop departing aircraft. Flight Ops said the line was to the south fence of the south 40. They finally let us start the engine before noon, in line @...

    A trend of First Officers not wanting to be Captains

    It's going to get worse. The younger generation look @ this much differently. They're not as interested in 'advancement' as they are in 'contentment'. It will get harder to find someone to work 36 hours straight in a few years.

    Tinker AFB Air Show

    Had a friend go down from KS, they arrived early, thought he said they waited 2.5 hours to get in. Sounded like they had a much larger turnout than they expected. BTW, he loved the F-35. Marc
