    Training in my own aircraft: equipment question

    Hello all, I'm currently doing my IR training in my own aircraft (PA28R-180) and my CFII informed me of a possible curveball that I'd like to get the group's collective wisdom on. My Arrow is equipped with: GNC355 GPS/Comm with CDI (GS/LOC) KX170b Nav/Comm with CDI (LOC only) DME According to...

    Feeling in over my head now

    Concerning your original post: You had oil on the windshield, this was fixed, and THEN you lost 1/2 quart of fuel? Is that correct?

    A little off topic, but an interesting observation in my own IR training going on at the moment: I used the foggles type cited by the OP rather than the hood type. The foggles (going over my glasses, incidentally) of course have the straight edge forming the top of the foggles. I look...

    Flight Review more than 2 hours

    Trust me, It DOES happen. It might be rare, but we need to be careful to avoid these jokers. First and only time I encountered this was in Oregon. I scheduled a BFR with a local "CFI" in the Portland area. Upon arriving, it was very obvious at the outset during the ground portion that he did...

    Replacement Normally Aspirated Cylinder Discussion

    I just had my analysis come back, but all they provided was the ppm and not the acceptable ranges for an IO-360 (Steel cylinders).

    Wow.. cheap air fair

    It's doubtful the 121 airlines, as an industry will die completely, but I would shed not one tear if any of them went out of business. On the upside, considering their horrendous track record, options to cattle car transport are growing.

    Thoughts on DME?

    When I upgraded to the GNC355, I installed a DME. I love it and glad I did. Why? GPS => Fancy New Hotness KX-177b + KN64 DME => More solid than a soviet fighter In the time since I installed the GPS, I've had NOTHING but trouble trying to get the Comm settings just right and ended up sending...
