It is so cool getting to introduce children to the wonders of flight. I'm glad it was a positive experience for your son. My children are grown so for me it is taking the grandchildren up. I took my oldest granddaughter up on Wright Brothers Day, 12/17/16 for her first flight. I bought her a...

I have been using a RAM yoke mount since 2011. Still using the one I bought back then. I did not like having to juggle the iPad in my lap but I love having it mounted right in front of me. My iPad mount has the full platter. I have never used one of the "X" grip models and no experience to...

Thanks for posting the link. That was pretty interesting. I'll have to check out some of the other years too.

The TKM is sold. I only have the GTX327 available. Thanks for the inquiry though.
