I, and everyone else, likes the look of the front load machines. But most are nothing but trouble. Mold, inefficient and very long cycles. I will have to replace my very old Kenmore, and I plan to get a top load, probably a SQ. I think the manufacturers were ordered to make machines that...

Speed Queen usually comes up. They have some with mechanical timers, which are much less prone to failure. They are back to using cycles with reasonable water usage, which gets clothes clean. All of the washers which claim low water usage take forever to wash a load, and then do not get...

Easy. You figure out the cost of your boat payment, add 25%, multiply the number of hours you spent thinking about the work times the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, and then subtract out the few hundred bucks you paid the high school kid to actually do the wiring.

I carry the stuff in post 50, above. I found this https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B076ZTCLJQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 It is about as small and light as could be, and very bright. I also carry finger lights, but they are attached to the visors by their velcro strips...

I think that's correct. I was replying to the statement about not seeing the value of sending the approach to the GPS. I certainly do. I like FlyQ. I started with it when it was the AOPA flight planner. I bought the lifetime subscription. I think it's better suited to VFR than the others...

I like mine. Depending on your age, there's a real advantage in having a straight leg but still capable airplane.

I like the Honeycomb TQ as well. It can be set up for GA or big iron. It has an AP, gear switch and flap switch. Nicely made. I use the Honeycomb yoke, and I like it. I use Thrustmaster pedals, mainly because they were all I could find. I think Honeycomb just released a model.

From what I've read, pants on the mains do little or nothing for speed. Pant on the nose potentially makes a difference because of the higher velocity of propwash. Carefully designed nose pants made to minimize drag from the interference of the strut with the cowl can make a difference. But...

Where adding procedures really shines is if you have a FlightStream. Add the procedure to your flight plan on the iPad, send to panel, activate the flight plan and it automagically appears on your 530/430.

Well, they do put KY jelly on their toast.

I refused to buy life insurance. I said that when I die, I want it to be a sad day for everybody.

And there's Washington math. Start penniless, work three years at $179,000 per year, and then be worth $29,000,000.00!

Yup. I have an O-360 which is the smaller version of yours. Mag drop not good, ran rough on one side, plugs routinely fouled. Tried the leaned run up, leaned very aggressively on the ground. Used tricresyl phosphate with every fill. A little better, but not right. Replaced the lower plugs...

There's a simple solution to the high wing/low wing debate. Get one of each!

I reserve the right to report whatever number is bigger/biggest.

Well, it was deflation that caused the problem to begin with.

Coulda been worse. Coulda been PORTAble Pilot Operated Traditional Training Instrument.

G-force induced loss of consciousness (abbreviated as G-LOC, pronounced "JEE-lock")

Bet that was not the only place there were skid marks.

I suspect they will. There is a merger pattern like WordPerfect and Word. Once distinct, they have come to mimic each other. I have a lifetime subscription for FlyQ. I mostly use FF. I like the weather presentation on FlyQ better. I'm thinking about a dedicated iPad just showing FlyQ for...
