    FlyQ Online Question

    I've been playing with the FlyQ online site and can't find an easy way to determine information about SUA's. In particular, I would like to find the detailed info about MOA's that are in my route of flight. It's easy to do using the iPad App, but so far I've not found a way in the online...

    WingX Plate Overlay?

    I experienced the same thing flying yesterday for first time since new WingX release. Wish I had thought to include that in my bug report. Got an almost immediate response from support (on Saturday). I'll wait and see what the new release does before reporting the ghosting.

    WingX Plate Overlay?

    Just got an email from tech support saying the wandering heading bug has been fixed and sent to Apple for their approval.

    Best ADS-B IN to match TailBeacon

    I also recommend the Stratus 3. I've had the 3i version for several months now and have had no problems. It definitely works well with Wing X (which is what I use), and supports a wide range of other EFB products. Here's a link that gives all supported products...

    TruTrak, where are you?

    Steve, do you have any dates for the AA5 series? Thanks, Joe

    TruTrak, where are you?

    "They are finishing up the American Champion paperwork." Did you mean Grumman American by chance? The Champ doesn't seem like a likely candidate. I have an email from TruTrak dated August 2018 where they said that they would start on the AA5 series mid 2019 and have it ready to ship about 4...

    Thinking about getting a Garmin 496. Worth It?

    I have a 496 in the Tiger interfaced to my GNS430W so any waypoints that are entered on the 430W also show on the 496. I also have an iPad connected to a Stratus 3i. They both have their pros and cons. On a cross country flight, I probably look at the 496 more than I look at the iPad. I have...

    Ozzie's Diner at OUN closed for renovation

    Unfortunately, that's not necessarily true. Ozzie's is located in the terminal building which is run by OU. OU gave them very little notice that the terminal building was to be renovated, and the waitresses were frantically looking for work elsewhere. Very sad!

    Ozzie's Diner at OUN closed for renovation

    Great place to eat in central Oklahoma but closed for terminal renovation until around October 1.

    Anyone do the new Aspen E5 ?

    I just completed an install of the E5 and a Stratus ESi in our Tiger. Very happy with everything so far, but haven't flown much due to high temps in Oklahoma. I also installed a new aluminum panel overlay from AuCountry. Had the panel powder coated and it looks really nice. Done except for...

    WingX V9 preview

    I'm sorry, I just realized that I had it backwards. Before the latest update to WingX, I couldn't see 978 traffic but could see 1090. After the update, I can't see either. My friend was equipped with 978, not 1090.

    WingX V9 preview

    No way that I know of to distinguish 1090 from 978 on WingX. I discovered that I wasn't seeing 1090 aircraft when I was flying in very loose formation with a friend who was 1090 equipped but wasn't seeing him on WingX. Loud and clear on FlyQ. I started comparing WingX and FlyQ and realized...

    WingX V9 preview

    I also have a Skyradar DX that I use with the new version of WingX running on an iPad Air 2. I'm not ADS-B out equipped so only see traffic that is near enough for me to see directly. Even with the old version of WingX I've never been able to see 1090 traffic. I spoke with Hilton at Oshkosh...

    WingX V9 preview

    With the previous version of WingX I could see 1090 traffic but not 978 traffic using the Skyradar DX. I have a friend whose plane is 978 only equipped. I could see him on FlyQ but not WingX. With the new version of WingX I'm not getting any traffic with the Skyradar DX, but I see them ok...

    WingX V9 preview

    Just flew new version for the first time Saturday. Not much difference, except I didn't see any traffic with WingX. FlyQ was showing lots of traffic. Using Skyradar DX. I've never seen 978 traffic on WingX, but the ones I wasn't seeing yesterday are all 1090 aircraft from the OUN flight school...

    SPOT Failure

    I just had my SOS function tested by the data center that monitors SPOT. I contacted SPOT help and told them I wanted to test SOS. They sent me a form to fill out and send in. Took a couple of weeks but I got a call back from a nice lady who walked me through the test. Mine passed! I've...

    SkyRadar DX heads up - App doesn't work on iOS 11

    The SkyRadar-DX has two antennas on it; one for 978 and one for 1090. By using the app, you can change it to allow one antenna to feed both ports. Right now, mine is set for two antennas because I was using it on the glareshield. I'm going to install a permanent transponder antenna for the...

    SkyRadar DX heads up - App doesn't work on iOS 11

    I just tried to use the SkyRadar DX app on my iPad and got the message that it doesn't play with iOS 11. Emailed owner (Alexey) and he confirmed that it won't work, and there is no quick fix. I have an older iPad running iOS 10, but the app has evidently been pulled as I couldn't find it on the...

    Problem with W on screen, only happens on this forum.

    :rolleyes: Wasn't obvious how to do that in Firefox but there was a setting to allow pages to choose their own fonts. I said no, and the problem went away. Thanks for the hint!
