    iPad mini 6 - any case or bumpers that will fit in the Ram EZroller?

    Hi team. I’m wondering if anyone has crafted a clever work-around or found a case that works for this. Would be great to fit the iPad into the ezroller while still having some protection when it’s not.

    Latest iPad Pro Vs Air? - 2022 Models

    My plane came with the factory oxygen tank and the cannulas. My first time using them was going East over Lake Michigan at 15k last week. Second time was coming back west-bound yesterday at 16k. According to the FF ring if I could make a 9:1 glide ratio I’d have made it to shallow water. Still...

    Latest iPad Pro Vs Air? - 2022 Models

    Attached are pics of my mini 6 cellular on a Ram EZ Roller setup in the Arrow. I wouldn't change a thing and liked it so much we did the exact same in my son's 150. Vertical fits good in the Piper yoke. Horizontal for the Cessna. We use a "tough claw" instead of their yoke mount - seems...

    anyone on here from the Billings, MT area?

    Alright guys. While it's true we've taken from him the ability to say he never got any help from his parents (maybe that's your background?), to be clear he's worked hard and made sacrifices to be able to take out a loan and purchase his own aircraft at 18 years old. There's plenty of details...

    Credit transfers

    My son is starting a Restricted ATP Bachelors at college next year. We were told it would be beneficial to come with his private but nothing further could be accepted before starting in their program. He will start with IFR ground and practical when he starts in the fall.

    anyone on here from the Billings, MT area?

    My son is considering bringing a Cessna 150 when he starts in the Aviation program at RMC this August. Would be great to make a few contacts in the flying community before he makes that leap. We've heard there may be some covered tie-downs at Laurel but otherwise hangars there or at BIL are...

    incorrectly ID'ed on FlightRadar

    @Cricket1, I got my even numbers mixed up and it shows me as a 34. Still curious where they get it from, but fortunately I really have zero need to know the answer.

    incorrectly ID'ed on FlightRadar

    Where do services like FlightAware and FlightRadar24 get their aircraft info? I recently walked into some FBO water cooler questions because they thought a twin was coming in when instead I'm flying a PA28. FlightAware has it right and even updated the registration info within the last few...

    Passed my IFR checkride

    It was a 10 day IFR course. I went a little long because of the above mentioned hiccups, but it ended up being just less than 40 hours dual under the hood (had a few hours already). Plus lots of good ground instruction plus studying and chair flying.

    Passed my IFR checkride

    I didn’t have any “turbo” or engine specific related trouble with the arrow, but did manage to flat two tubes, a bad seal in the electric fuel pump requiring full replacement, had to have a new PTT switch installed, and just the icing on the cake a broken gear indicator wire which decided to...

    Passed my IFR checkride

    My accelerated IFR had some mostly personal aircraft induced hiccups along the way, but overall a great experience. Learned a ton and the entire crew at Venture North in Cloquet, MN is fantastic! If you look close you’ll see the ****-eating grin on my face coming home after the successful check...

    Latest iPad Pro Vs Air? - 2022 Models

    Just before starting accelerated IFR training I put a mini 6 on the Ram ez roll’r yoke mount in my PA28. I was worried the mini was going to seem too small but it’s actually perfect and now I can’t imagine anything different. I’m new to bifocals (clear to 1.5x readers) and one surprise is how...

    Want To Buy iPad Mini 6 with cellular

    Just a comment on Wifi vs Cellular (a vote for cellular/GPS): By suggestion from my CFII during my IFR training I upgraded Foreflight and now have the blue airplane position on the IFR approach charts. I'm sure it's possible via Sentry or maybe hotspotting to your phone or whatever, but sure...
