    And that's why you don't mindlessly update your iPad/iPhone

    Updated my 7Plus - no problems works fine. Needed a little tweaking since they turn all the marketing and tracking back on - but that like everything. Updated my 10.5" iPad Pro Plus - again - the hardware was designed for 11 so it works fine. Foreflight works fine on both systems. Did...

    Garmin got me lost and cannot get me to my destination

    I'd send those screen captures to Garmin - and ask them what happened. The report back here - thats looks like an AD waiting to happen. . . . imagine if that went screwy like that on a LPV approach . . .

    Care and feeding of Turbos

    I owned a Turbo Viking for 3 years. So here is my real world experience. When I bought the beastie she had compressions anywhere from 69-76, with a disconnected ambient line to the automatic waste gate. Not a single vaunted Bellanca mechanic caught the problem until I looked at the system and...

    [NA] timely bill payment?

    Ok - lets try this scenario: 1. Credit Card: You have a great lunch at the little bistro you found in Italy. The owner has a thief working for them - and they steal your number and charge up $4000 in charges that day - you catch it when you get home - your bank did not detect the fraud...

    [NA] timely bill payment?

    Doesn't everyone pay them on the due date electronically? I only write checks to my pool guy and landscape guy and church. No one should have much less use a debit card. . . . whose money gets stolen first? If you use a credit card for everything - whose money gets stolen first? People...

    Stadium TFRs = Unplanned Lake Michigan cruise

    I told everyone back then that if JFK, Jr., in his fancy Saratoga, had pressed the HDG button he'd be alive today. . . . Sorry guys, but you get into unexpected IMC and you start feeling the panic creep up, you don't declare and get some help or get turned back around where you can see the...

    Stadium TFRs = Unplanned Lake Michigan cruise

    if you are not instrument rated, don't have an autopilot, and you are put in a situation where you have no horizon - either 'unable' or 'I have been vectored into IMC and need to declare an emergency." Because guess what? Not being instrument rated, with out a autopilot, in non-VMC conditions...

    New Gout Diagnosis

    gout is a pretty obvious thing - once you read up on symptoms = it tends to go away after a few days [10 or s0] and changing your diet will keep it away usually. The tried and true method of avoiding reporting diagnosis on your med form is to not get a formal dx. It's not like a stroke or MI...

    Maho Beach...

    that;s what I said - its still there - plus the rest of it is just off shore - once the gentle winter surf rolls back in the beach will come back - it gets replenished regularly.

    Hurricane Jose now a Cat 3

    wasn't the claim that climate change woould cause more intensive hurricanes more often? That was the claim, right? So we go 10 years without a significant hurricane- but that's climate change too? When did the claim change? and whats the science behind it? I can understand the first...
