Does anyone have a source for a replacement seat belt for a 1967 Cessna 182 ? ML

Thank you. The northern route will be my preferred route henceforth. ML

In about two weeks I might be flying from Tuscon local area to KPOF (southeast Missouri) at sub-O2 altitudes. Direct line takes me across some higher altitude terrain than I’m accustomed to flying over and also some restricted airspace in New Mexico. Any one have specific area information...

I haven’t really been looking at anything and will take whatever guidance I can get at this point. The situation is that the iPad I’ve been using with ForeFlight is soon to be gone. I very briefly started to shop for a replacement iPad when I decided to look at other options... at about the...

Again, I see I haven’t been as clear as I meant to be: I’m looking for recommendations other than iPad.

I’m trying to obtain information or advice about which of the many products available for purchase in the field of tablets is a good fit for aviation and, particularly, Garmin Pilot. I apologize for the lack of clarity in my original post.

I have decided, I think, to move away from my ForeFlight and iPad combination and go a different direction this year. Assuming that I will go with Garmin Pilot, what tablet/device should I be looking at to obtain the best utility on the ground and in the air? Anything to watch for a stay...

I am interested in a plane that has flown very little in the last few years. In fact, I’d guess it was idle for a full year before a recent annual inspection and flew 30 hours the year prior. The plane is located in the dry southwest. What, if anything needs to be checked out? Or is this a...

By all means come on down..... but I’m thinking the foliage will pretty much be over by then. ML

Thank you.

I didn’t know whether to post this in this area or the maintenance area, but..... I no longer am putting out a mode c signal. Light blinks on transponder, atc sees me and the code. First indication of a problem was my gps (Apollo gx60) sent gave me a message during a flight that it wasn’t...

I’m looking for access to a true 4 adult passenger plane for longer cross country trips and it seems like there must be more options out there than my inter web searches are turning up. I currently am at a little over 250 hours tt and finishing up my instrument rating. I own a Piper Cherokee...

My brother shreddd a crow while flying today with our Cherokee (0-320). Other than the obvious blood and guts spread across the front of the cowling and one wing, there is no apparent damage. The bird hit the prop about 12 inches out from the spinner. So, good to go? Or is this one of...

Thanks for all the input.... lots of info and options and it’s all going in the hopper for consideration. Thanks again. ML

The reason I had leaned away from Hobby and toward Ellington was that I’d be saving nearly $60 in fuel costs. However, I will be more than happy to visit with Wilson Air at Hobby if they give those types of discounts...that’s the kind of info I was looking for. Thank you.

I’m flying a friend into Houston tomorrow for an appointment at MD Anderson and need some info (as my time to call various fbo’s today will be severely limited.) Last year when I flew him down, the person who was transporting us asked us to fly into Hooks as that was more convenient for him. I...

I am looking to buy a Skybound 2 in 1 adaptor in order to update my Apollo gx60 maps. Does anyone have one for sale. Alternatively, I'd be willing to pay someone to update my card for me periodically. ML

Here’s my situation. Earned my ppl 21 months ago. Now have a little over 250 hours in SEL. Starting my instrument rating next week. Today I was at the airport and while we were talking I mentioned I am retiring from my job in 11 months. I will be 53 years old. Two commercial pilots with...

I paid, if memory serves, $3,490 two years ago. I posted about it here and you can go find that post if your interested in more details. Another member from Arizona who had just started looking into flying read the post and flew here from Arizona and got his cheaply in about 3 weeks. He went...
