    Can a man have too many tools? [NA]

    My wife and her family own/run a very large tool business. I have so many tools that I don't even know I own, half of them I have no clue when they'd ever get used. Quite a nice problem to have.

    Need NAV unit that drives a Flight Director

    There is no way to get a flight director on the GI 275 without an autopilot

    Radar Altimeter KRA 10A

    Agree with Martin. What does "not working" mean. Odds are good that it'll be just fine when 5G goes full power.

    Total disappointment with 4 local avionics shops

    Yep exactly. The GTN manual, by contrast, basically says to go get the separate permission letter from the dealer system.

    Total disappointment with 4 local avionics shops

    Totally 100% agree on the non-TSO install. However, the FAA has already made it clear that VFR GPS can be minor alteration, and IFR GPS generally is a major.

    Total disappointment with 4 local avionics shops

    What's your approval method here? Can't use the STC without Garmin's permission, so you're starting from scratch on approved data. Maybe it's not that difficult, I honestly don't know.

    Rental EV's - (lesson learned)

    That's definitely unacceptable. Every EV I've rented (Admittedly all Teslas) were >85% when I picked them up. The one time I got one that was lower, I went back to the counter and traded so they could recharge it on-site for somebody else.

    Sun 'n Fun 2023

    I've gone a number of times. Previously flying down commercial from Iowa, but now I'm in FL and have an airplane. Kinda feels like I'm obligated to fly in for at least a few days.

    How accommodating is Orlando ATC?

    I've flown over, or nearly over MCO multiple times VFR. They seem pretty accommodating in my experience

    Stratus 3 won’t show traffic on both ForeFlight and Garmin pilot

    This is a known issue (Feature?). Garmin Pilot uses a different data format than Foreflight (Yay proprietary interfaces). The Stratus switches based on which one is needed/requested, but will not output both formats.

    Ipad gps satellite connection

    The GLO does both GLONASS and GPS, as do many of the other devices on the market at this point.

    Clubs or rentals near Daytona Beach?

    The one time I talked to them they only wanted to rent to full time students. OP may have had a different experience but I doubt it

    Clubs or rentals near Daytona Beach?

    Pretty slim options. I rented at Air America (Daytona) for quite a while until I got tired of their crap and bought my own

    legal to install a non tso EFIS ?

    Just to clarify, there is no TSO version of the G5 (or G3X, or Dynon's HDX). They have an STC without a TSO.

    Garmin GNS 430W install along with GTR 200B

    If you want to transmit or receive on the 430W, you're going to need an audio panel. The GTR 200 is never going to connect your mic/audio lines to the GNS's radio (COM or NAV). You can't splice your headset lines to solve this, you need an audio panel.

    Garmin GTN650xi ads-b display of traffic & weather

    The install manual is pretty clear that you can get TIS data from a GTX 330 to the GTN. How do you have each of them configured?

    No more Airplane Mode, Europe

    The whole point of this is that the airplane will provide it's own "cell tower". Airplane connects to the network via whatever system (Satcom, Ka/Ku, other) and then provides that to customers via 4G, LTE, 5G, whatever. Some of the middle east airlines already provide this service (For a fee)...

    InReach Mini 2 and Foreflight?

    Inreach provides GPS data in a proprietary (non-standard) format, which is why it works with Garmin Pilot but not Flightaware or others.

    Embry-Riddle Pulling Out of Daytona

    That's was my thought as well. Wouldn't have been a fun departure out of here. I got lucky and got tucked away in a hangar
