I'm based in the Washington DC Flight Restricted Zone (FRZ). If my transponder fails, I can't get home. Consequently, I swapped my perfectly good, working ADF for a backup transponder. My ADF sits on a table. Interested? Paul

Laphroaig for me. It's like a trip to the seashore.

New York Pro Musica, when I was very young.

The problem seems to be the result of the tablet bogging down.Since I started periodic soft resets and cache cleaning there have been no more dropouts. The Bluetooth issues date back to about two weeks ago, when I updated the database. At the next update, I may first erase all my charts.

Always call the FBO and ask them to provide information and make arrangements. They are like the concierge at a hotel. Don't call the rental car company, taxi, or whatever unless there is no FBO or the FBO recommends that you do so. Tip well, and make sure the hotel or wherever you go knows that...

On the last few flights, the GDL-39 and Nexus 7 lost Bluetooth connection several times and had to be reconnected. Has anyone else had this problem?

I always go through the FBO. The one time I booked directly with Enterprise, the car went to the wrong airport.

Heroes not required. Five heavily-armed wankers would have been helpless against a howling mob of 1,500.

Seems like it boils down to trading the hassle of headset cords snagging on your leg when you get out for the new hassle of having to either take the thing home with you periodically or stringing more wires to keep it charged.

Processed to remove haze.

Garmin Pilot works well with XM weather on the Android. You will need an XM receiver (WXWorx) and a Baron Mobile Link, plus appropriate power supplies, to make it work. The XM data is really much better than ADS-B data...

David Clark for durability. Mine are approaching 30. Bose for best performance. Lighjtspeed for cost-effectiveness.

I just did a side by side comparison with Garmin NEXRAD via ADS-B, Garmin NEXRAD via Internet, and NEXRAD via NOAA. Scattered green an boxed appear only in Garmin NEXRAD via ADS-B. The NOAA source shows lots of clutter, which appears to be filtered out in the other presentations. I believe that...

On my first flight after the update (August 22) there was a persistent area of green and yellow precipitation over the Calverton (CCC) VOR at 12:25 PM, EDT. When I flew through the area, there was no precipitation, and nothing appears for that time on historical NEXRAD data. Subsequently, the...

There was a period when I was in college and too young to rent a car, but could rent a motorcycle. I did a bit of riding then. Otherwise, no interest.

Kettler Silverstar commuting bicycle.

Has anyone else found that the Twin Falls, Seattle, and overview sectional fail to download. Probably not a problem for me, as I have no plans to fly there soon, but puzzling.

I've installed 4.3.3, and it runs well and appears safe to install. I never had problems with ADS-B radar failing to appear, so I can't say it improved anything for me.

About one a minute at 4 AM from Sandy Island in Lake Winnipesaukee, NH. Very dark skies helped a lot. One fireball above first magnitude. Aviation content -- flew up here Saturday morning.

Another vote for GAI. Keep in mind that the one hour Metro ride is often the fastest and cheapest way to get to DC. A car ride from IAD can easily take far more than an hour, particularly during rush hour. You can add to that the air delays and long taxi times at IAD. IAD is like a black hole on...
