    Foreflight + Stratus (ADS-B WX)

    dmlad4u, I find it odd that you preordered the Stratus, but plan to cancel it and wait, possibly months, for a device that has practically zero information from the maker... Including no screenshots nor confirmed software compatibility. I've read Clarity's entire site (took about 13...

    $200 ANR, $75 PNR Headsets

    Spend $40 more and get the AvShop unbranded-Lightspeed ANRs, then you'll have support and known quality.... Flyin' aint cheap, and buying cheap Chinese made crap with horrible English manuals and no support isn't my idea of fun. When a low quality headset battery pack explodes in IMC because...

    JVL Pirep?

    Stopped for fuel and waiting for weather in April.. nice controllers, not much traffic, fuel was cheap and the guys at the place were real friendly. Restaurant was closed on Sunday afternoon about 4, so can't tell ya about the food. The jet center is the only FBO I recall - very GA, not...

    Anyone flown into Wolf Ridge Airport (33NR)

    I think Mt Air is relatively easier than Wolf Ridge... but after looking at Mt Air's stats and comments on the forums - I think I'll head to AVL and get picked up after a 25 min car ride.... I have about 140hrs and never any mountain flying... so probably not a good choice solo for me! Good...

I was checking airnav for fuel on the route and say KOXI lists $4.28.... must be wrong... So I check the website ( http://www.starkecountyairport.com/ )... $4.28... So I call... $4.28...

    Mid-runway departure?

    Not sure intersection departure is right.. but maybe similar thinking. For KJVL, runway 14 is 7301' long. Assume you're in a 172 at the jet center, which is all the way at the end of 14, and departing 14. http://www.aopa.org/airports/KJVL Would you ask for a takeoff at B1 or B2 to save...

    Last Friday, visited MGW (or KMGW if you're searching that way) Morgantown, WV to drop off a pilots-n-paws dog. You can read the writeup of our trip by my friend Steve, who came along, and writes much better than I do, here...
