You know that is a complete BS statement you just made. Don't you???? Up until the private check ride (which in this case was just 1 week before), the concentration was VFR charts and ground reference. The 'new way' was to using IFR Low Altitude charts and now referencing the VOR and DME and...

I would highly recommend about 1-2 hours of "how to fly cross-country using IFR tools" with your CFI. Back in '86, when I had a fresh PP ticket, my instructor knew I was planing a VFR trip from FL to WI. He sit me down and went over the low-altitude IFR charts and how I could use them based on...

I am looking at an interior job this year and am planing on replacing any of the brittle plastic that I can find replacements for. Maybe I will check the vendor and see if they can run a version with black plastic.

Just luck while poking around. I looked up the airport, then noticed the IFP Documents tab. I found it under that tab. I have looked at some other airports that I was interested in but I have not found another map view like at M95.

I like that black trim. Was that special order vs. white, or just standard for your aircraft. All my PA32R trim is white.

Story told my by my CFI a few months ago. One of his rated students took his aircraft to KLAL and dropped it off in front of one of the KLAL maintenance facilities after hours, as arranged with the A&P. The next morning, the A&P called and asked why he did not drop off the plane because it was...

For the airport that initiated this thread, there is additional information on the FAA site. https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/flight_info/aeronav/procedures/application/?event=directory&directory=63161CAB3BDF4112849FCC81BA455185-M95&type=acifp&nasrId=M95 is the main site for this airport. The pdf...

I do think it's just the film. At night, you can't even see the problem. Just when there is sunlight causing glare.

Has anyone recently sent in a GNS430W for repair of a de-laminated screen? And, if so, what what was the final cost?

Not really.

That was an answer to "what specific airport" was I at where I knew the ramp fee (from a call), but they then added a landing fee (for the airport) above the quoted ramp fee. The original post was a "wish there was a better way to know", not a rant against fees in general.

I was trying to ask "If all published approaches are marked 'N/A Night', then what about the unpublished 'visual approach'? Can it be flown when all the other approaches to the same runway can not?" This more a thought question that looking for a legal interpretation. It is a consideration of...

My daughters Buick had a bad BCM that was turning on the internal lights and other things, thus draining the battery every night or while she was at work for 8 hours.

It's been a few years and I really don't remember. I am not really complaining about the existence of fees, I am complaining about the fact that we can easily see fuel prices on AirNet, but not fees. (Most of the time, fees are not going to drive me to go to a different airport. The cost for a...

I just wish AirNav had a main item under Airport Services that said: Airport Landing Fee: Yes|No FBO Ramp Fee: Yes|No|Some While I understand these fees are sometimes needed, I just don't like the surprises. And especially the double wammy when I got charged by the FBO for both an airport...

I have considered putting a small diode across the main terminals of the GPU relay to allow trickle charging of the battery via the GPU.

I have used the one on my Lance to jump start from a vehicle. It can not be used to charge the battery as there is a relay between it and the battery that is only energized if there is power on the port and the master is on. This is shown in my POH electrical diagram. Your dead booster box is...

It seems my experience that ATC always seems to say: "Get the weather and let us know which approach you want." This puts the decision directly with the pilot and he should know if he can fly it or not. Now, what about "cleared for the visual" at night when all the published approaches say "N/A...

After reading the replies, I went back and reviewed the wiring diagram for the Sandel SN3808 to Century connections. I have a 1C-388-2 Radio Coupler which requires (3) 10K-10K audio transformers. Two of which also need a 10K resister between the output sides. While this box was tested when I...
