    912ULS maintenance

    Gearbox inspection on each and probably also due for carb clean and re-balance. Also look into if it was all the rubber hoses or just the fuel lines replaced. On your compressions - you’ll want them run at 87 instead of 80.

    Planning a circumnavigation of the Caribbean Sea. Which airports should I land at?

    Wow. That looks awesome. I have nothing to contribute but my jealousy! Safe travels!

    Don’t forget the frosted orange to go with it!

    Atlanta / Buckhead Recommendations

    Go to The Downwind at KPDK. About a 15 min drive north from Buckhead. Great spot and a great airport (even if the local community hates it ). Also, if you like pizza - find a Mellow Mushroom. There is one in Buckhead on Peachtree and one in Brookhaven (on the way to PDK) right across from the...

    More Change at FAA medical

    None of this discussion is going to change the FAA, nor is it likely to change any minds. That said - given research shows a bi-directional connection between diabetes and mental health conditions, maybe a bit of empathy for those who get caught in that process with the FAA? Suppose you’ll...

    More Change at FAA medical

    You’re not trying to apply logic or consistent standards to this, are you? Stop that; right now! This could all be so simple. Drop the prior medical requirement for basic med. PPL and SPL can be obtained with a class 3 OR with basic med (class 3 for icao and some insurance requirements)...

    ForeFlight logbook question (delete an approach)?

    Thanks - I realized that I somehow changed my setting so the fields were not showing up (which is how I ended up adding the approach twice). Once I added them back, the approaches were listed and I could remove as you described. Thanks!

    ForeFlight logbook question (delete an approach)?

    I accidentally added an approach twice on the log entry. Can not figure out how to get rid of the duplicate. What the heck? I’m sure it’s a simple fix. Anyone know how to delete an approach from a ForeFlight logbook entry?

    Yep. But coming from SW, probably a non factor.

    Nothing particularly noteworthy IMO. Biggest thing to be aware of are the MDW arrivals @ HALIE

    iPad and Garmin 175 baffled

    Yes, ForeFlight and the 175 work flawlessly via Bluetooth. No need for Flightstream.

    President's TFR for VFR

    I’m pretty sure you have that wrong. From what I have seen on the internet and movies, Lincoln loved to fly. It was traveling by boat that gave him nightmares.

    Upgrade Help- VFR to IFR

    Yep - i build the flight plan in ForeFlight in planning, it syncs to the 175 and make any route modifications there. You can load/activate/modify the approach in ForeFlight (i dont think you can go missed - maybe you can) but I feel those steps are best done on the 175. In ForeFlight, after...

    Upgrade Help- VFR to IFR

    In the scenario I am describing, you are not controlling the 175 via the iPad - but rather interacting with ForeFlight. The iPad connects with the 175 via Bluetooth and keeps the iPad and the 175 flight plan in sync. You can make a change in either system (175 or ForeFlight) and the change will...

    Grief and anti-depressants

    Wonderful progress and good on you for your hard work and perseverance. I doubt it would be an attractive option in current form, but, just to see all the plays - a fourth option is to exercise sport privileges as a PPL. Post MOSAIC, it could be more attractive. As you consider your...

    Upgrade Help- VFR to IFR

    I have a 175 and it is great unit, but I would agree the screen/keyboard is a little smaller than ideal when it’s bumpy. I find that I typically make changes in ForeFlight, which syncs to the 175 via Bluetooth. I find the ForeFlight interface far more intuitive. Garmin has a nice iPad based...
