In my case I'll pick good and cheap. As a weekend warrior I can keep flying VOR's for a while. :)

I haven't read the whole proposal but it sounds like overkill to me. Then again, I'm a responsible drone pilot that tries not to do stupid things to force big brother to create more rules.

Ok these have been out for a little while. Has anyone gotten a cost to install a Garmin GPS175 in a small single piston (Arrow)? I found a place online that advertises an installed price of $5540 + $1200 for an indicator if needed. That seems like a very respectable price if it's correct. I'm...

Personally I wouldn't see it as a big issue as long as the rest of the logs are up to date and all of the AD's have been addressed. It might make a good negotiating point though.

This all sounds normal to me. 15 hours in I think we all struggled. Keep at it, work hard and it will come.

I got my IFR 6 months ago in an Arrow with 2 VOR's (one with glide slope) and an ADF with not DME. My plan was an ILS, LOC and VOR. The DPE surprised me and asked if I'd ever done an NDB approach. I said no but was willing to give it a try. Between the ADF and my iPad running Garmin Pilot, I...

Just last week I notices that the plane wasn't charging during run up. Wouldn't be a bid deal but the Arrow has electric landing gear. I know, I always have the emergency manual down but I don't like relying on only 1 system. In any case, good call.

Me too:)

My version hasn't updated yet. I'm still running version 9.7.4. Is there any way to force the update?

We've had a lot of IMC here but this time of year that means ice.

I work with ordinances all of the time. Either follow the ordinance or change the ordinance. If he's outside the zoning, they can politely remove themselves from the situation. If his zoning doesn't allow it, request a variance.

I just got my IFR last fall and although I've been flying more, I haven't done many approaches. As I got to looking, my currency runs out this Sunday!!! I can't believe it's been 6 months since my check ride. The good news is my pilot dad says he has time this weekend to go shoot some...

I normally don't if I stick around the home drome because we don't have radar coverage until about 5000 feet. If I'm going somewhere I normally file IFR but if it's a short trip and they can see me on radar, I'd definitely use FF.

Very interesting. Sounds like quite the life.

I work at an engineering firm and we've designed both round a bouts and traffic signals and the round a bouts are MUCH cheaper to install and maintain. Plus they move traffic MUCH faster than signals or stop signs. Their only disadvantage is they take more space to build and the public normally...

That's the best picture I've seen of Houston for a long time.

I just took the commercial written last month and they did NOT provide an electronic E6b but did provide a simple calculator. I took my own Sporty's E6b. To the OP, don't worry too much about the test. If you can regularly get 90% on practice tests, you'll do fine on the actual. Remember, you...

You guys are putting way too much thought into this. They don't care if it even works. Sell a stolen radio on ebay without a tray, get cash, walk away from ebay account. All it takes is an email address and the crook doesn't care about feedback. As soon as they have the money, they are gone and...

:yeahthat:

Rain would be better than what we're looking at. Low tomorrow night of -11°, high Thursday of 0°, Thursday night -12°. I hate winter in Iowa.
