No idea what the cost would be. I'm guessing they will ask us to pay our pro-rated share based on square feet. Knowing what FAA projects cost it will be 10X what it should cost. I don't know of any platted right of ways. These hangars have been here for decades and certainly have a...

Thanks for the input. I've taken a google maps screenshot. The area between the red and white line is what is in question. The red line is the property boundary.

Our municipality is preparing to use AIP funds to reconstruct the apron. We still have many privately owned hangars (real estate too) at the field that join the apron. The property boundary generally extends 25 or so feet in front of the hangar then begins airport property. It totally makes...

We got a 5 bedroom AirB&B house not far from Sun n Fun and we are down to just 3 of us coming so we have 2 available bedrooms. We have the house from the night of the 13th of April through the night of the 17th. Would appreciate a contribution of $350 for each bedroom needed. One contribution...

I want to give you some encouragement. While I didn't have to deal with dead owners, I did take over a abandoned aircraft with missing logs and it was a blast to get airworthy again. My story is there was a 1952 V-tail bonanza left at our airport about 12 years ago. A hangar owner stuck it in...

Thanks guys

Our local airport got a makeover with a new runway surface and lighting. The threshold lights are on stands that elevate them about 24" high. Seems strange to me that they wouldn't be installed in cans at ground level. The markings are not on the pavement yet, and I assume before the lights...

oooo... the bluetooth idea sounds great. I still need to put in the serial port, but then the firefly will bluetooth the data to to device for analysis correct?

Nice. I’d appreciate any instructions on installing a port. Is this something I have to send off to have done or can I install one myself?

I bought a Bonanza with a JPI EDM 700 and the manual talks about a serial port to download data. I can’t find one on my unit. I looked at the back and there are 2 large plugs and a cable all connected to something. No empty serial port. Do some of these not have a download port or am I looking...

Got it done! It was a blast! I was VFR and they gave me a clearance to land of "turn on a heading of 260 and intercept the localizer for 17R". I thought that was strange for VFR. Once on the ground one of the jet pilots asked "Where'd the bonanza come from" tower replied "Somewhere north!"...

Thanks for the input. Will let you know how it goes!

I plan to fly into my first class Bravo, Denver, on Sunday. Thought now would be a good time to do it! Should I go in VFR or IFR or does it make much difference with the reduced traffic? Any other tips for a first time Bravo guy? I've done several D and C. Thanks.

I appreciate all the replies. This has definitely helped me better understand this and other approaches!

Would appreciate some help here. Look at the RNAV 32 at KGUR : https://aeronav.faa.gov/d-tpp/1905/09220R32.PDF Notice there are several notes stating that the procedure is NA when..... For example when arriving at HOCXU on V547 southeast bound. So, if I were coming in from the northwest...

Hey all. Want to thank you for the useful information. When we took the SSP from Lycoming to our A&P he agreed that just a log book entry was all that was necessary since the part numbers matched and our engine was listed. SSP-885-2 is specifically approved by FAA for installing a spin on...

Question on the procedures for keeping our Cherokee 180 with Lycoming 0-360 A2A certified and legal. It has the oil screen but not the spin on oil filter. There is a engine off of a wreck at our airport that has the spin-on adapter that we would like to bolt on so we can have the benefits of the...

making some calls to neighboring airports this morning. Hopefully result in some leads

There is a fairly sizeable FAA funding project going on now at the airport through this spring that is re-doing the runway. The engineers have said no money is available for fuel.
