    Interested in doing avionics work. How to start?

    Contact Omega Aircraft Services in Weatherford OK. He does GA planes only and has a large backlog. Maybe he needs another tech.

    Oshkosh - 2018

    I agree with Jay, I was listening to it live from my living in Oklahoma and was wondering why they keep turning back the whole group. At about 6:30pm they started taking 1 or 2 from the bunch and turning the rest back. At least some were getting in then.

    Garmin Pilot unable to get terminal procedures

    Might be a Android update issues, because Garmin email me yesterday and said they are testing a fix pilot. My Pilot on a Samsung Active S7 stopped transferring database files to the GTN650. I downloaded pilot onto an older phone running an older version of android and it worked.

    Part of the complaint my avionic guy had was poor quality of wire the previous installer used.

    GMA 340 Audio issues

    Mine did that for years with the old com/nav radios. During the avionic upgrade the shop called and said he wanted to replace the harness because it was wired wrong. After upgrade, no issues. I thought is was bleeding over from the RF cables but it clear now that it was the harness.

    GTX345 questions

    In my setup, GTN650 w/ 345 w/ 510, the Connext (Bluetooth) is active and available to pair devices on both the FS510 and GTX 345. Both of the Connext (FS510 and GTX345) are configured by way of the GTN650 Connext page.

    GTX345 vs GTX335 w/ FS210

    I love my GTN650, GTX345, and FS510. The GTX345 will feed the ADSB data to both the GTN and to connected BT devices at same time. You control the setup of the GTX345 BT through the GTN setup, same page as the FS510. I've been using both Pilot and FF while I figure out which one I like best...

    Ever get permission to fly through R-5107B?

    I've been cleared through the Bliss, McGregor, WSMR Restricted area a few times. Once the Albuquerque controller out of Deming volunteered it. Direct DMN to CME. Also the Fort Sill OK Army controllers will clear you through the Ft Sill Restricted areas, call them on 118.6 (VFR) or 120.55...

    Chances the GTX 345 will ever gateway to the GTN series...

    I have to check the version of GTX345. I've been getting attitude data directly from the 345 on FF. Before the upgrades the attitude data did not get passed by FS510. Now it does. The Pilot app shows it receiving attitude (device status) data from FS510 but the attitude page on pilot isn't...

    Chances the GTX 345 will ever gateway to the GTN series...

    The Bluetooth in both my Flight Stream 510 and GTX345 work at same time. I've been connecting FF directly to the GTX345 and Pilot to the FlightStream 510. I was doing this because until the most recent update, the Attitude info from GTX345 was not getting transmitted by FlightStream 510. With...

    ForeFlight Aero Charts

    Mostly use the Aero and Low IFR charts even when fly VFR. I agree with the comments above, that Aero charts are the foundation of future. My guess we are only a few years away from Sectional not being available.
