    Yaesu Handheld to Bose headset adapter

    I also have the 550. my Bose isn't bluetooth, but i could connect my phone to the headset and call ATIS. At my local airport, though, the phone ATIS doesn't include the "information" identifier. I"d get the weather and local notams, but not the identifier. i've ordered the cable from Amazon and...

    Yaesu Handheld to Bose headset adapter

    I'm part owner of a Cessna 150 with a single radio (yes, we've upgraded for ADSB in/out and it's wonderful.) Because i'm on FF for most of my flights, i purchased a Yaesu handheld so that i can listen to ATIS and ATC at the same time. However, this is rarely convenient as i have to pull off one...

    Poll: how many times did you fly VFR into IMC

    In all fairness, my one time of VFR into IMC occurred in a sailplane in the 1970s. It was after a winter storm, and the lift under the clouds was impressive, at 1000ft/minute...Before i knew it, i was sucked into the clouds. I immediately directed my sailplane away fro the mountain i was next...

    Changes to SFO Class Bravo

    What i find weird is that the Dublin/Concord corridor used to have a 6k base, and now the ends are at 7K and the middle is 5K. I do like the new corridor between the peninsula and OAK. Brian

    New California declares ‘independence’ from California, hopes to become 51st state

    Now i remember why PoA removed the SpinZone. I'm from CA and love it here. Let's just agree to disagree and move on to something else.

    Glider Ad on Rating

    Sailplanes. they're sailplanes, not gliders. I have about 25 hours in sailplanes dating back to my college days in the 70s. Never got the rating because i could solo with my ASEL. Nothing compares. Everytime i'm a bit high on final in my 172, i wish i had spoilers.

    Apple Phasing out iPad Mini

    which is a shame, because it fits perfectly with a yolk mount in a C172.... Maybe i'll have to update from my Mini2 to the mini4 before they disappear. http://appleinsider.com/articles/17/05/16/apple-phasing-out-ipad-mini-in-light-of-low-sales-plus-sized-iphones---report

    Buy a Plane, Crash a Plane

    Well, the first thing you shouldn't do after buying a plane is to crash in upon takeoff, which apparently is what happened yesterday up the hill from me. http://www.modbee.com/news/article76809077.html Glad the pilot is ok, but i wonder whether they'd corrected for density altitude. Yesterday...

    How high have you flown non pressurized plane

    You're too young to have remembered Mr. Seagull. Terrific book written by a pilot.

    Time to re-introduce myself

    Welcome back. :) Given you've posted 3K times in three years, i must say that you are a chatty pilot. I"m Brian and i joined PoA two years ago after taking 40 years off from flying. I sure wish someone would organize regional fly-ins for PoA members. i'd love to meet some of you crazy...

    Talking to ATC

    THIS, plus Live ATC, plus pen and paper on your clipboard for writing down those instructions. It's ok to ask them to say again.
