    Quick fuel stop question.

    Why not? What was the lesson learned?

    Panel upgrade - cast your vote.

    Any choice is a bit of a gamble. I’d keep the 530W and move the transponder in your second image down a bit enough to clear a 750 (hopefully) a few years down the road when the GNS dies. In the meantime having a second GPS in the panel that you’ve already paid for is better than shelling out a...

    A Cirrus Piston Twin - Practical?

    Which is why I emphasized the word might. Cirrus is doing quite well for themselves and my money is on an improved jet in a few years, and marketing their trainer plane. Get them at both ends.

    A Cirrus Piston Twin - Practical?

    The only thing I can think that might be marketable in that gap would be a six place piston single.

    A Cirrus Piston Twin - Practical?

    You’re missing the DA-42, which is aimed at the same training market as Tecnam.

    1965 Cherokee 180 panel refresh

    The Lynx 9000 also has a diversity option, though it's a software unlock on the box itself. Add the wiring and antenna on top and you're good for international flights.

    AP and Panel Options

    Thinking on why your dealer is reluctant for the second option, I’d be reluctant too to go with King anything. I am guessing you have a Cessna with a 200A?

    Cessna tail Snow

    Those engine nacelles are also a great snow and ice collection point. Plus with solid ice you don't need as thick a layer to get the same weight, and Portland does get some pretty serious ice storms sometimes.

    New Garmin Instrumentation - Look Good!

    Yes, the initial AML list is here. Pretty broad initial list, from Ercoupes to King Airs to Citations.

    Why buy a GNS430 over a GNC355?

    The Avidyne 540 series will do the same. And like the GTN, it can be remote or panel mount.

    150 knots for $50k

    https://www.controller.com/listings/aircraft/for-sale/152379857/1989-beechcraft-f33a-bonanza I have to wonder just what too much time is for a piston plane. Especially one used as a trainer.

    Beard oil and oxygen

    It was fairly popular in Germany before the war, plus of course there are various sources claiming one origin or another.

    Garmin 175 AHRS display device?

    They don’t work with ForeFlight?

    Real TAS for Planes?

    I wonder how close the control cables were rigged to factory specs.

    Skymaster Avionics Installer Needed (Philadelphia)

    Quite a nice upgrade setup. Though why not go with the 345 instead of the 335? Traffic and weather can then be displayed on the 430W and onboard iPads.

    Will toys get cheaper as Boomers age out and move to the home?

    An article that summarizes a scientific study. My own observations indicate that young people are just as hard working as their parents and grandparents, and that most boomers are just as good as anyone else, but there are definitely boomers who are entitled jerks.

    Girdwood crash, August 4 2019, stupid pilot tricks

    Yeah, that high of a BAC is like playing Russian roulette with a 1911.

    ADSB in as an aircraft renter

    I've had an iPad with cellular for a few years now and never actually had cellular service for it. Will second Avare though, it's on my phone as a backup.
