    Handheld transceiver recommendations? Icom, Yaesu, or Sporty's?

    yaesu and Icom units are much better made than the sportys units. Price obviously is also higher. . Whatever unit you get - make sure you get the AA adapter panel and keep a set of AA batteries that arent in the unit available to swap in. You dont want a dead unit as a backup unit when you...

    What are Currently the Best EFB’s for IPad?

    I think most people are going to say Foreflight is the "best" in this category. You can make all sorts of other choices if you bring in cost associated with it - but the question wasnt "best value", it was "best. And that being the case - if all of them were free - then I think FF with...

    SSRI Pathway Decision

    do understand the concept of "approved" ssri. Many people think approved means you can take it. What it actually means is that you can be on it and go through the protocol (pathway II) and be approved for a special issuance for continued use. It doesnt mean you can take it without special...

    ADHD+THC

    I would argue they are enforcing it. The FAA doesnt allow it. You cant fly through airports with it. They dont allow it to cross state lines. I believe the military (federal) still bans it. Now what you are arguing is whether the federal statutes should be enforced within the state - thats...

    color blind with basic med

    he has passed a 3rd class. But the 3rd class has limitations (cannot fly at night). So the question is - does the 3rd class limitation carry over to Basic Med. Its a very interesting question. Its like - if the 3rd class said vision correcting lenses were necessary ( because of say -10.0...

    New iPad Nano Textured Glass in Cockpit?

    the only real question that I want to see is if it has better heat dissipation and perhaps less overheat in direct sunlight. That being said - the new M4 chip definitely runs much cooler than older previous ARM chips, but its also a function of battery charging that also generates heat. That...

    New iPad Nano Textured Glass in Cockpit?

    It looks to be an "outstanding" upgrade. In that there are two things that are better - one is the nano textured screen. I hate it in the office, but if it truly cuts down glare in the cockpit - thats a huge plus. but the other thing is that with the new ipad pro (which has the nano textured...

    What are Currently the Best EFB’s for IPad?

    if everything was free - Id still choose foreflight... and I have a garmin stack, so theoretically GP should have a slight bump in advantage. Ive used Fltplan and a few others, but always seem to come back to Foreflight. It just accomplishes what I need to do and its weather and everything...

    Flight Plan Filed -- Told to Expect Different Route

    you can do a vfr departure and then pick up your plan somewhere further along the way. They still may route/re-route you as well. And in busier airspaces, they may not let you file a pop-up, so best to have one in there. In the northeast - in the busy NYC corridor it can get a bit tricky as...

    Insurance Companies

    sort of. . if you are serious, and you've already done this - the broker has to be willing to get you to docusign (or fax sign) to change the "broker of record" at all the places he plans on getting you a quote, and then wait for them to correct and edit it in the system. Technically I think...

    How does a GTN and GNS combination work?

    Think long and hard about this. . If you go ALL avidyne - thats fine. If you have a GTN, and then add an IFD series navigator to save the 3k installation cost, you'll end up paying more with the two different database subscriptions. . . It makes no sense to have a GTN and IFD unit in the...

    How does a GTN and GNS combination work?

    be very careful. You will need to be at the same navigation for both the GNS and GTN units for this to work. Not sure if Garmin onepaks will include the GNS and GTN units on one subscription - though Jeppesen does NOT. So its subscriptions for the GNS and GTN units if you go that route. But...

    No delay

    No delay means - go now and not wait. It doesn’t necessarily mean speed up per se but I’m sure that would help. . I would still look and be on the lookout when crossing any active runways

    Multi- Engine Time

    for insurance - depends on the type of plane and seems to be critically so - the amount of retractable/complex time one has. Ive seen insurance not quoted many times for people with limited complex time. But generally if you have a decent amount of complex time (not sure if thats 100+ or 200+)...

    Multi- Engine Time

    There is a big difference between insurance allowing someone to fly the plane between an aztec, baron or king air. Without knowing what plane the insurance company is requiring time in - i dont think your comment of 10 or 15 hours and being to fly a multi is relevant. Try your I have 10 or...

    Hims Psychiatrist Test

    Depends on what it’s for. Without more detail - kind of difficult to say. But generally the FAA prefers its own docs and their word over external docs that don’t have anything to do with aviation. But again - this is generally and not for all things
