Signature Ramp, Austin KAUS

I'll probably replace my Stratux with this, but I'm going to wait for version 1.1.

If the F-16 radar is like that of other look-down-shoot-down radars then it may reject targets with less than ~80 knots of groundspeed.

"Churchill" is the WORST MOVIE EVER MADE!!!!!!!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS INSULT TO ONE OF THE GREATEST MEN WHO EVER LIVED!! Strong message follows.

Just to echo what others have said, first consult a California business attorney and a California CPA or Enrolled Agent. The lawyer can help you pick the correct type of entity you want to form from a legal point of view, and the CPA/EA can advise you on the tax consequences of your proposed...

The Hero with Sam Elliot From last year, now on most video services is a great aviation related movie: Eye in The Sky

Nothing wrong with Arrows, but the Cardinal RG (which is a 'Cessna Mooney') will actually glide if you cut the power. The Arrow? Not so much.

Sadly one two many Texans have used their 'freedom' to fill our nice rivers with thousands of empty beer cans, six pack cartons, and vomit. The people living on the tubing rivers got sick always have to clean this s**t up and in many counties enacted the ban in question.

I think it is based on the coincidence that the first digits of rpm are sometimes close to the first two digits of manifold pressure in inches. If we measured MP in Pascals nobody would try to correlate 2500 rpm with 84659.7 Pascals. Probably someone figured (incorrectly) that running their...

+1 for 345 in standby until takeoff roll

:oops: Now I'm more confused!

I still have a few GoDaddy domains. I quit using them a long time ago when they played a Superbowl TV commercial that contrasted their marketing department with their software developers. In the marketing department their then CEO and his buddies had hookers on their laps and were swilling...

This is interesting. I base my opinion on talking to a well know Texas broker several years ago who told me if bought a plane he represented I would owe sales tax. I then looked up the actual occasional sales rule which says: But wait, there's more!! I took my own advice and called the...

A lot of 'private pilots' actually hold commercial pilot certificates. A commercial pilot can do exactly what you want. You just pay him or her to fly you from A to B in your airplane, or an airplane YOU rent. If you fly in his airplane then he has to have meet some more involved rules that...

I take a back seat to nobody in terms right wing wackery, but Ted's right about this Balloon thing. I was gobsmacked when it came out that a person with a host of substance and judgement 'issues' could sell tickets to a huge a balloon with essentially no oversight. Certainly if the FAA diverted...

Enterprise always seemed to be all about nickle and diming every customer. They always seemed pretty mickey mouse. It's been a few years, but they really PO'd me the last time I used them. I was working for a Fortune 100 company that had a travel department that always gave us the cheapest...

George Ferris runs http://aboveaviation.com/ He works out of Atlantic.

Ride Austin also pays their drivers much more than Uber or Lyft, and does better background checks. So you get a better class of driver.

I bought an iCom receiver about 8 years ago, and it was impossible to just tune in a frequency. It wanted to be a scanner, the whole UI assumed you set it up the night before. What units will just let you type in 123.45 and let you hear and talk on that, without having to 'program' anything...

The 345 is a complete replacement for the Stratus since it includes an AHRS. I wish the 345 used wifi instead of bluetooth.
