Wow, thats scary, but I guess not surprising. So if I send something in, how do I PROVE it without something back? Certified Return Receipt? Its WAY too easy to bust. S.

Lance - I _tried_ to do this for our kids school, and called the Minnapolis FSDO about what notification they wanted. The inspector said "he did not care," and as long as it was for a charity all was fine. I also would caution your friend about making too much of a big deal about this. If he...

Richard, I agree with you, unless you are attempting to shoot the 5 mile gap between two restricted (hot) areas. Pilotage is great, but its very comforting to have MULTIPLE sources telling you that the flyboys above are not dropping heavy ordnance on your head. (Speaking from experience)...

Ahh! Wow - Although I guess I should not be surpised at the cost. I think I'd so the handheld and figure a way to hook it up... Aircraft are a wonderful way to spend lots of cash on cool toys! S.

I'm confused... What does $20K buy you? Iridium handsets are FAR less than that. I know a guy who has one in his 210 for weather and voice. IIRC, they run about $1500 (or less?) and less than $1.00/min.

Or big brother mucking with the signal.....

As a computer person, I don't belive I would trust my life with ANY GPS, panel mounted or not. I know the VFR ones are expected to perform at a lesser level, however I can't see how ANYONE can say a panel mount GPS will have 100% uptime without crashes or failure. Anyone who believes so is...

Hmm, I have a 296 with 3.2 and can't get it to crash. Does yours do it EVERY time? On another note, have you played with ximage? How cool is that???!?! I replaced the splash screen of my 296 with a picture of my plane! VERY COOL!

Ha! I got it! I know who it is... Interesting... Now I am MOST curious. The point of this is???? :)

So maybe I should not have been having a QSO coming into Memphis? LOL Kinda my thought too - Not too many scary things to watch out for over the flat lands of Northern MN! :)

Didn't that have something to do with Photographers & friends and AIDS? (or am I WAY off?)

Glad it was a help Jean! At another web site (to be un-named) I was flamed about HF in an aircraft. Go figure. Part of pilot training is learning to handle distractions - Most of the flames were about "how can you EVEN THINK of using ham radio when you are BUSY flying?" Hmm, maybe don't use it...

Welcome from Ka7GXP! If you are interested check out: http://www.omen.com/f/avradio.html Chuck has been doing it for a long time, and has been REALLY nice EVERY time I emailed him with an odd question. S.

Scott ("Wrong Way Shekels"), Chip ("The proud new owner"), Lance and Eric.

Damn, I should have posted the thong picture! LOL

Jeez, no he did not! Hmm, it DID seem like the whole time he was trying to not jinx himself to the weather Gods... Of course, there is the other side: We wanted to see if it could fly with the "test pilot" first! LOL

It was all his idea (really!). Lance, Eric and I had the fun of meeting Chip this morning (O GOD EARLY for us night owls) for breakfast while he was in town picking up a new toy. After a wonderful breakfast, we chauffeured Chip to Lake Elmo International where he departed in his new...

Hmm, 35 to the tabs. I am surprised at the difference!

According to this its 53 gal usable. http://www.csgaviation.com/specs172s.pdf S.
