    Ok Fl pilots, which of you caused Falcon 9 to scrub

    I was at Kennedy Space Center waiting for the launch and it got cancelled. Whoever violated their airspace needs to get hammered by the FAA. We were in from California and that was our one and only chance to see that launch.

    Try a Comanche, they are roomy compared to a Mooney

    Any Alarus/Zenith CH 2000 Owners Here

    I remember looking at one a few years ago. Price was shocking for what the bird could do although the avionics were nice. Anyway I bought a Grumman and called it a day.

    Talk me out of a Grumman AA1B

    I owned N1574R for about 6 months. I liked the little plane but there were two reasons I dumped it so quickly and moved to something bigger and faster. 1. as soon as I bought it everyone wanted to go flying and with only one extra seat and limited useful load there werent many options. 2...

    Setting tach time

    I have a Mitchell Tach that quit. I called Mitchell and I can send it back for a brand new replacement with the current tach time set for $200

    Can an EDM 730 show Manifold and RPM?

    I found out my gauge is a Mitchell. They will give me a brand new replacement with correct tach time for a flat $200. I just need to pull mine and send it back to them. So that seems fairly easy.

    Can an EDM 730 show Manifold and RPM?

    My RPM gauge ha started to fail lately and seems to jump around quite a bit. Its not the engine as there is no noticeable change in the sound or feel of the engine so both myself and my mechanic feel the gauge is starting to fail. Rather than have this fixed or rebuilt, can the EDM 730 show...

    Notification on GNC355?

    I had a GNC 355 installed with a GMU11 and a GAD29b along with a G5 HSI. I keep getting these two notifications on the GNC355. 1. “Heading source inoperative or connection lost” 2. “Pressure altitude source inoperative or connection lost” Unfortunately the avionics guy who did the install is...

    Thinking About a DeLorean

    I love the Delorean for its looks but would never own one unless someone gave it to me.

    LPV approach wont activate?

    I dont think so. I was flying and I had a friend messing with my new avionics who was more familiar with how they worked (not an expert but more familiar). He said it wouldnt lock on so it got my concerned if I was doing it right

    LPV approach wont activate?

    Like I said Im new to IFR but it would not lock on to an LPV approach. We tried both before we got ot the final approach fix and it kicked back to TERM then we tried after the final approach fix and it kicked back to TERM as well. Maybe Im saying things wrong but that was my understanding of it.

    Low wing plane with light rudder pedels

    Have you tried to inflate the tires. My Comanche gets real heavy in the front when the tires get even a little low

    LPV approach wont activate?

    I'm new to IFR flying and have not received my IFR ticket yet so please excuse me if I'm not using proper terminology. I recently had a Garmin GNC355 w/ GMU 11 and GAD29b installed along with a G5 HSI. Last night a friend and I were testing it out to see if it would lock on to an LPV approach...
