I'm pretty sure it was both. Sorry I can't be more specific, there were just more red X's than not and the entire event was relatively brief. It was almost as if it looked like the entire system was starting for the first time and reinitializing. Reason I say this is not only because of the...

As briefly as it happened and the surprise it took me by I can't be entirely certain of all the affected instrumentation. I do distinctly remember the comms and navs X'ing out as well as the airspeed, altitude, and VSI tapes. I thought the attitude and heading went out but maybe I saw it wrong...

Let me start by saying this is only the 2nd time flying a G1000 equipped C172 so I'm still learning all the intracacies of it all. So as we were mid leg on a cross country the PFD displayed as such: This only occurred for about 3 seconds and the MFD took over. It would come back online and...

Thanks for all the advice. He did great today!

In case you do tire of FF, the homemade stratux has worked well for a lot of people including myself and is compatible with other apps too. Can be made for $120.

What's wrong with boldmethod? Aside from the guy not blinking in his videos.

Haha I never actually read the NTSB report. Maybe the redbull helicopter will have a similar story.

Yea that one's a classic. I always feel bad when he says "I apologize".

I'll vote FltPlan Go as it does everything I need for free. I've tried all the free trials and nothing stands out to me as a must have to justify the money. Edit: They also have a good website with various tools and a decent interface to manage your flights. So I can plan 10 flights in advance...

Boldmethod.com has some good videos and articles. I like taking their mini quizzes while sitting on the toilet.

Consider Lyft too, I generally have a better experience with them and it's usually cheaper too.

Great lookin dog! Are those mutt muffs or the 4paws aviation headset? First time hearing of the 4paws ones and they look a little more substantial

That's great to hear. Good call about the leash, I think I'm more concerned about him panicking and starting to eat the seat belts or digging at the seats.

So the pup in my pic is starting to get pretty big and he has yet to go on his first flight yet. We are planning to make a short cross country this weekend and bring him along to see how he does. He does pretty well in a car, but still yearns for attention. We have a collapsible crate that we...

When you say "type certificate" is that referring to the TCDS? When I looked that up it only states "The basic required equipment as prescribed in the applicable airworthiness requirements"...which I guess is 91.205?

Yea the plane in question is a rental and its been that way for as long as I can remember. Would love to go out and just put a new one on. So does that mean since the beacon housing was removed the plane no longer is equipped with an anticollision system and can go on its merry way?

Something doesn't seem right with the clouds. The forecast an hour from now is showing sky clear across the state whereas the current bases are around 1500 in the gainesville area from the tropical storm.

This came up in another thread and I can't quite figure out if it's legal or not. I don't need it per the March 11, 1996 remark in 91.205(b), but 91.209(b) is saying that if the plane has an anticollision system it all must be operative (or at least that's how I read it). So let's say the...

I still struggle with really understanding the flow of minimum equipment, but I'll take a stab at it and see if I'm understanding it correctly. To the point of 91.209, the plane doesn't fly at night regularly so that shouldn't be a problem (at least I wouldn't for this reason). Going through...
