The “fields” surrounding IWS are flood control reservoirs and hold a lot of moisture. The weather/visibility can turn to horrible condition in minutes. It’s happened to me where I turned around within reaching pattern altitude on a perfectly blue sky just moments prior making my departure call...

I actually switched to dual G5, but yes, the data from the gps unit will go direct to the 275(or G5 in my case). I was able to retain a cdi and have it connected to the SL30 as a separate navigation system. if you have a good CDI, try to get some trade-in value or sell it individually. They...

If the HAM operators can triangulate frequency abusers, I’m sure the same can be done for airborne aircraft and ADSB. If they wanted to crack down that would be the only way with current tech. But I don’t see that happening right meow, possibly in the future.

I think it’s some guy named Brandon who has a house full of cats.

I noticed more uniform EGT as well after adding some carb heat. the results appear to be split between: dont need it, to keeping carb above freezing temps.

For those of you who have a carb temperature gauge of some sort.... What temperature do you prefer to keep your carburetor at during cruise flight? I have a JPI with a carb temp sensor. I couldn’t find any solid answers on the topic, so I’ve been keeping my carb temp around 37-38 deg F during...

I’m going to try for Saturday.

Where did you find this engine management class?

Hit the damn TOGA button on takeoff. Otherwise it’s going to feel very heavy and you’ll have to correct trim manually. I just had mine installed and the importance was not emphasized. :eek2:

In theory, you’ll get more hours going the same places! Positive thinking.

Check out these guys. They have an IFR 150 and fly that little guy all over the place. Even to the Bahamas. https://youtube.com/channel/UCTZag4YbkphCT1rzU6-RlEw

Very sad news.

Why not try Velo pouches during a flight? Nicotine without the tobacco. You don’t have to carry around a “dip cup”. Just a thought.

Ever been in a plane that still has ash trays for each seat? Lol :D

You might also inquire about a trade-in with your avionics shop. They offer trades for a good waas unit. Also I believe Sarasota Aviation is offering a pretty decent swap for 750w. Check their website. https://sarasotaavionics.com/gtn-upgrade-promotion

Call the airport manager, I’ve spoken to him a few times on the phone. He was helpful in giving me a little insight to the airport and put me in touch with the guy who ran the hangars. He may also know a flight instructor or two. If you do end up at this airport, you’ll be a crosswind...

I just ordered replacements on my 182. $750ish with install. Panel is already out, so labor was cheap. I like knowing I can isolate a problem circuit at altitude.

Hello, I live in Houston, may be of some insight. What airport is closest to where you live? that determines A LOT about how often you can fly. I tried out Pearland and was not too enthusiastic about their flight club. Plus that uncontrolled airport is super busy. It really needs a tower...

For those that used Sheppard, did you do it on a computer or an iPad? the rep said iPad was difficult for some. Thanks
