Thanks for the help. Really helpful

I have a Garmin gps175. Will it Bluetooth connect to it for traffic and approaches? Thanks

Thanks. Most helpful

Thanks for the reply. I didn’t want to overly rely on my iPad for this. Much obliged Dan

Hello. Are approach plates in the software on Garmin 660? Read the Garmin specs and I still can’t tell… coaching appreciated.

Thanks for the responses and help w intel. So helpful

So Garmin will stop supporting, and admittedly, ignorant on what that means… main question is, how long can I expect to be able to get dbase updates? Coaching appreciated. -dan

yes, started from totally full, but w 49 knots in the face and an all day flight ahead, one trlends to fly balls to the wall.. the last fifty miles were totally lean and about 2100 rpm… took about an hour of looking for short field landing spots. And yes, fuel totalizer going in next week…

Thanks Domeneck. Got into an incredible headwind in a cross country flight and only one fuel gauge kinda sorta working. No good place to refuel and ended up putting in 47.2 gallons. Your numbers and tip w the fuel selector management are most helpful. -dan

Hello. Bought a c172 with 180 ho Lycoming that has had 52 gallon fuel tanks installed. Looking for an estimate for what may be fuel usable w these tanks. Coaching appreciated. Thanks

SO helpful. THANKS Ryan — this parts numbers and intel on which clamp saves me a ton of headaches. Info is much appreciated. dan

it'd be a five pin female connector. thanks again

Hello. Looking high and lo for a connector for an S-Tec 6405-14L Turn Coordinator. It has a round, 5-pin threaded connector. If anyone has one of these in the back of the hangar and would part with it, would you please let me know? Or give me an idea as to where to look for the part? thanks alot dan

Still big numbers… I think the key is to find a shop where they’ve installed a lot of these… trutrak or trio… as installation is more than half of the total job cost.

Yes. Thanks for the reply

Hello. Could someone give me a good idea of cost to install. Trio autopilot in a Cessna 172 D. Gps is a Garmin 175. Airplane has a constant speed prop so a little heavier on the nose if that’s a factor. Would appreciate some coaching on the hours. Thanks

thanks for the input. I appreciate the help.

thanks Dan. Sounds like coaching from someone who's been there and done that. Headed to the hardware store now.

Hello. Bought about three types of velcro and thy all failed. Issue isn't the velcro, it's the glue that holds the material in place. Airplane of course gets really hot in the hangar, and the glue just can't take it, and releases. I've read here that there's a heavy duty dual lock closure, and...

it has an oil analysis doc with it. maybe that'll help. Otherwise I've gotta go engine shopping.
