14 CFR 23.2515 covers lightning protection for IFR in Part 23 aircraft. It has nothing to do with equipment, and everything to do with aircraft certification. Yes, the limitation is written out in the POH, but it's not just an arbitrary limitation, it's a certification restriction. Also, most...

The DA20 is not IFR certified, thus, it cannot operate in IMC. It has mostly to do with the fact that the aircraft does not meet the required lightning protection

That field is for satellite locator beacons (Inreach or similar). Not your ADSB transmitter

MKC is in Missouri

That was in my contract with my realtor. And after review, it was in the contract for all 3 houses I've ever sold.

My last sell (2021) was a similar overall situation. My realtor would have happily let me back out and not sell, but I would have owed him the full commission. Fair, since he did his job of bringing an offer of over ask

That doesn't add to the chaos at all. A GTX 335 doesn't have bluetooth, so doing what OP is trying to do was never an option for you.

A GTX 345 doesn't require FS210 for bluetooth. It's part of the transponder itself.

The key difference is that when I posted that (almost 2 years ago) there were exactly zero EAB VL3s in the US. There's still 5 or less in the US that are EAB, but at least it means they are working on the builder assist program. Plus Cubcrafters offers a true factory built (certified or SLSA)...

At sea level, which is where I'm conveniently located, my Archer II can pretty consistently do 900fpm when not fully loaded, often more if it's a cool morning.

Default answer: use google. True for basically every forum

I'd be willing to bet that the answer is yes, that's supposed to be done by somebody authorized. Specifically, at a minimum the AFMS or other documentation needs to be updated based on the new configuration. Signed and approved, blah blah all that standard stuff. Just going in and changing...

Absolutely true, but that's going to be true of any/all manufacturers. There's currently not really any way around it, since most of those parts simply aren't available as made in USA.

What certified aviation equipment did they produce outside the US?

Nope, that's the price.

If it's a transponder+ADS-B, it's going to be 1090. 1090 doesn't support anonymous mode, so you will never see such a product.

Yep, and you don't even need an add on FS510 like the GTNs. I'm seriously considering a GPS 175 as an IFR GPS for my PA28

Incorrect. The GTN 650 has the full keyboard on one screen. Only the GPS 175 family (GNX 375, GPS 175, GNC 355) is small enough to have it split up

Even more likely, why would they not jam anything the balloon was trying to transmit. So much of the public assumes this thing was just talking freely to Beijing. In reality, it probably wasn't getting anything out.

AC 20-138 covers the GPS question specifically
