Just received the following email from FlyQ offering new subscribers $49 first year subscriptions for their new 4.5 release. That's their full VFR/IFR package that's normally $159. "I hope you and your loved ones are doing as well as possible during these difficult times. As a Lifetime...

That's why it's called Ill-Annoy ;)

Just an FYI, The Avidyne panel units have USB ports that are not just for updates, you can charge and run things off them also.

Home built parking shows just east of rwy 5...is that where it was last year? https://d2uowj5bno3yjz.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/18143827/map_dnld_web_snf19.jpg

In agreement with your post although I don't think you need to have dual E5s for reliability. Something like an AV20s for less than $900 would suffice as a good backup.

A lot of the stuff in the pic isn't used much anymore. E6B, charts, pilot guide, passive Dave Clarks (headsets worn when flying and wouldn't be stored). An IPAD would replace most of that stuff.

I’ve got a neighbor who has 2 airplanes, one certified and one experimental who shares one 530W between the two. He’s done this for years with no issues.

I agree with you, it's a LOT better than it was but there is room for improvement.

"fast-track"....they obviously have a different definition than the rest of us in the order it today get it tomorrow world. I'd rather see "leaps" than steps in the right direction.

This is a primary reason why FAA certification of avionics needs to be steamlined. By the time approval happens it might already be antiquated and obsolete.

A lot of shops do quotes based on worst case scenarios they've experienced. 50 year old planes with a lot of old wiring (same color), makes it difficult to do even simple jobs. It's still hard to believe sometimes when something like 70 hours is quoted. That would mean that a tech worked on your...

Have a new, never used Lightspeed Sierra headset that I had gotten as an extra ANR headset trading in a Dave Clark. $525 paypal and free shipping. SOLD!

We need a smaller ballpark

I've been burned more than once with Aircraft Spruce expect ship dates, I think they are just a computer generated guess. Last time I ordered some Goodyear II tires and when it got close to expect ship date, it'd back off 2 more weeks. After the 3rd change in their expect ship date (another 2...

This is from the website (It's under the SUPPORT FAQ section for the AV30) "The AV-30-C is undergoing certification via the AMOC AML-STC process. This is a new risk-based certification methodology that is being supported for Part 23 Class I and Class II Aircraft. We expect to complete this...

Here you go...Big step up

I did this with a Mooney for over several years and put more than 3000 hours on the plane. Had several facilities and also had to go district and corporate hq quite often. Ft Myers to Key West or MTH - 4 to 5 hours driving - 50 minutes flying (door to door--live on an airpark and facilities were...

Thx ND, just got an email back from Aspen saying it's a 5 minute procedure. Shop manager is nervous because he's never done one and is squeezing me in.

I've got this tentatively scheduled for tomorrow but the avionics shop has never done one and he only has a small window to do it. If it takes too long I may have to go back next week. It seems like it'd be a simple software update BUT sometimes they aren't that simple like the Avidyne operating...

$609....E-GAD!
