This right here. ADS-B has a lag of the weather on the screen and where it is now of about fifteen minutes. It's a useful tool but a Strikefinder will provide real time info. The two systems together are probably about as good as it gets in a piston single.

Aye, but the Scots elevate the grudge to an art form.

The cabin volume story got its start with the original O-2, where the military stripped it down. The civilian ones are better, especially the later versions. Two good ways to decrease the cabin volume are thicker windshields and three bladed props. Friend of mine has an early turbo 337 with...

That's not typical, I'd like to make that clear.

The article clearly separates and defines each one.

This chap put four adults and full fuel in a 140. Not successfully, mind.

My inclination would be to pull the Garmin 150XL, the TKM, the Narco transponder, and the Apollo Loran. You can sell the 150XL and TKM to get an AMU or two back. Replace with the IFD 440, one G5 for HSI, and AXP340 transponder. Do some of the prep work to install a second G5 later without...

The RealSimGear.com stuff is very good for the price. It’ll do everything the real Garmin units will do in flight.

The 155 is definitely not supported by Garmin. Wouldn’t drop a dime on one.

Been rumours of a new mini for ages. This information is interesting, but I can’t get excited until the official Apple announcement.

It’s not just the software, it’s the hardware configuration at the time of certification as well. Been looking into this since I picked up a cheap Frasca.

The warbird I'd buy if I win the lottery.

Because nothing bad ever happens while mindlessly following the magenta line.

Cappy, what if the partner doesn’t keep enough for overhaul in their primary account, but does in nonretirement long term savings that take a few days to transfer into their primary account? Otherwise bang on. Partnerships are great if people can afford it.

My current truck isn’t much fancier than that old Chevy. Basic stripper model where the only options were 8’ box, extended cab, AC and power windows and locks, bought used. Blew a transmission a few months ago (while I was on my way to pick up a Taylorcraft project that I lost out on, which...

Don’t airports get Federal money?,....read taxpayers money Don’t highways get Federal money?,....read taxpayers money We fund transportation projects because they provide a good return on their investments. Public transport of all sorts is a rounding error in this country, and while I am...

And as your own link states, that’s their smallest loss since 1973. Still sounds like their best year ever to me.

Amtrak just had their best year ever. Doesn't sound like no one is riding trains to me. And if we're going there, I wonder how much we would pay if there were no subsidies for roads or aviation beyond dedicated fuel and use taxes.

Monorail? Aren’t they awfully loud? Trains are more green, if you’re considering how many miles you can move a ton of load per gallon of diesel burned. Fantastic for freight, and railroads today haul more tons per year than ever before and make nice profits doing it. They suck for passenger...

FedEx gave away a lot of their 727s to aviation maintenance programs all over the country, but our school couldn’t take them up on their offer as the only place to park it was considered too close to the runway. Despite the fact that the taxiway and cargo ramp was closer than the proposed...
