We’re looking to just stay on one time on the west coast. Waiting for California to get with the program though. Arizona doesn’t do the time change nonsense and they seem to do ok with it.

The P2006 is a nice little trainer, there’s also at least one survey company using them.

No, the 175 is GPS only. The 355 has a comm, the 375 has a transponder. If you’re needing VOR you have to step up to the 650. All of those options will require stack rework, so bring money. The VAL is about as close as you’re gonna get to a drop in replacement.

I see your turbine car and raise you to a turbine locomotive.

Eh, close enough.

Val Avionics is about the only one I can think of offhand. $2200 plus installation.

Thanks chaps, I’ve added it to my Kindle.

Just curious, but what’s the name and author of the book? Always on the lookout for a good story.

The Tenerife accident for the ultimate case of get there-itis. The KLM captain wanted to get to his destination to avoid busting crew hour limits and misheard the tower.

Sounds great as is. I'd probably upgrade the audio panel at the same time the KX-155 dies.

The crisis is here, it’s called a shortage of pilots and mechanics. Since these aren’t traditionally fields that women go into it is logical for companies to do outreach and make girls aware that they can do these jobs as well as a man. Why wouldn’t a company try to double their potential...

I have to wonder if this turd of a study was sponsored by an anti GA group, with the end goal of putting more pressure to end GA.

If you're keeping the 155, keep the 209. Otherwise the nav portion of the kx155 is useless.

“It was an error to build an airport and neighborhoods side-by-side — that’s crazy, just looking for trouble,” Alvarado said. “And not to address over 50 years of cumulative lead exposure to people around the airport is an error.” When the airport was built in 1939 I’m sure it was built in...

Sounds like a loose connection somewhere. Hopefully it’s a wire going to the unit and not something internal.

In which case it may be going back to an ADF type system, with the base having a homing beacon.

Nothing happened. For eight years straight.

That'll take a few years to trickle to the used market though. Until then it's gonna be more and more difficult for a private owner to get one of the few (kinda) late 172s.

The owner of the plane had his FBO in Oregon broken into earlier this year as well. https://www.kezi.com/content/news/Burglar-steals-cash-equipment-and-plane-keys-at-Lebanon-airport-504781501.html
