Anyone know what this yellow ring on the 750 means? The only reference in the manual I could find was a TFR, but it also seems to include a time-indicator. Maybe the TFR starts in one minute? Any ideas?

UPDATE! I sent the situation to the Opposing Bases Podcast Crew (RH & AG), and while they did not select my question for the podcast, they did get back to me in email. Here was their response; ---- The controller made a mistake in using that phraseology for your situation. They should have...

Will do. I submitted a couple of days ago, no response yet.

That was the other aspect of this. The Controller flip at the same time as the 'own nav' instruction. My thought there was 'Do I ask him for clarification on where to go ( Charlie or Delta, I never considered Bravo) or do I just pick one ( he did say 'own nav' ) and let the next controller know...

True, but I was also vectored off of my flight plan and then told ‘Resume own Nav’ so I am going to have to fly Direct SOMEwhere. My question is where.

Here’s a rough sketch of the situation; Choices are; Fly Backwards to Bravo Fly Lateral to Charlie Fly Forward to Delta.

Maybe all the holiday Cheer has my memory malfunctioning, but I hit an unexpected situation yesterday and would appreciate some input. Setup: Flying IFR in VMC from KAAA to KBBB. Flight plan included a long segment on a Victor Airway. This occurred during that segment. Flight segment was over...

I have smart glide in our 182P. Driven by a G3x/750xi and a GFC500AP. Tested it multiple times. Works as advertised. Press the Smart-Glide button it immediately engages AP, pitches for Best Glide (programmable), and turns to point at any airport in gliding range (if there is one). Tunes...

Minor frustration with Garmin here. When looking at 'Recent Frequencies' on the G3x, it will show the designation of the frequency. (Tower, Approach, AWOS, etc.). The GTN, however, just shows the frequency. Not sure if there is a fix or I missed a configuration somewhere. Just annoying.

Same question here. I did notice that section 35.4.15 of the install manual has an image that shows 'Add Startup Images from SD Card', but it's greyed out. I'm going to do some testing and I'll let you know what I find.

This has been the best advice so far. Still waiting on a crank. Going on 6 months. Last update from Cont. is 67-days. But that was pushed from their February ship date, then 30-day extension. Does anyone have a unicorn trap I can borrow? Still offering a $1,000 bounty for anyone that can...

Update: The Crank is shot. #3 & #4 Journals are 'cracked beyond repair'. Price of a new crank is $10K - 11K depending on where you look, but availability is reported to be JUNE! OUCH! I called around looking for one, and people just started laughing at me when I asked if they had any.

Agree. I would have preferred an IRAN, maybe a communications breakdown between my AP& and I. Good point on the time, it's been over 10 years since new. My poll is showing (14/4) that the pricing is reasonable, so I just need to get over it. :D

Ouch. Thanks. I'll let you know how close you are. The word is still out on the Crank. Hoping for a Christmas Miracle. :D

Shop says "Not Shipping till June! Maybe."

Yes, Case is good. I Just got the bill for 'flushing the prop and governor' It turned into an $8200 overhaul for both. Ouch.

That's what my partner asked when I told him we has an $8,100 bill coming for a propeller and governor overhaul. Only had 900 hours on both, but (apparently) because the engine was making metal, both had to be overhauled. Both? The governor I get, by why the prop? Nothing special here, Just...

So if you have followed the saga of my wayward engine ( https://www.pilotsofamerica.com/community/threads/ups-lost-my-engine.134846/ ) you know I sent my engine that was making metal to the shop for an IRAN. The teardown is complete and they are advising of the following; " Current...

Update #5 - The Final update (Hopefully) The crate was delivered within 24 hours of finding it in Phoenix. Exactly 1 month after it was shipped (4 day estimate). The Engine company confirmed it arrived undamaged with all of it’s shipping paperwork. They opened the crate and verified it’s my...
