You can get the same product at a fraction of the cost from Deal Extreme ( dx.com ). It will take around three weeks to ship but you save a substantial amount of money...

Air Nav Pro is very popular outside the U.S. since they are offering VFR maps ( and sometimes geo referenced charts ) for many countries. I frequently upload new charts manually from our CAA website...not a problem ( and it's free ). Works great, well designed, packed with useful...

Thanks for sharing this wonderful adventure with us. The Greek Islands are the nearest destination for Israeli pilots outside the borders of our tiny country. This trip is definitely on my bucket list...:wink2: Awesome !

Don't forget to "Dress For Egress". If there is a post crash fire, of if you need to ditch the aircraft, all that gear will be completely useless... It's always nice to have some extra equipment in a backpack ( tent, sleeping bags, food, etc...) - but it should be considered "extra gear" -...

Sounds very exciting :yes:

I don't think so - but in essence, just a military controller asking silly questions... ( The seasoned military controllers handle military traffic, the rookies are assigned to GA traffic :D )

That's excellent news for ELAL, Arkia and Israir... The FAA's decision will definitely help their business :D

I guess this CFI is what you would call a "tree hugger" :D I don't want to pass judgement on the behaviour of others during an emergency, as they say "any landing you can walk away from is a good landing"... I think there was way too much talking going on, distracting the pilot and...

Thank you all for the valuable input. Your comments are appreciated. :yes: Alon

I didn't even know you could build time on a T-6 ( unless you own one ). Great, one more thing to dream about :D

Yes, they did figure out what went wrong...fuel exhaustion. Hard to believe, but it appears that even Jewish aircraft don't fly too well without fuel :D I mostly fly in Israel ( when the skies are clear of missiles that is...), recently flew with Adam in the U.S. ( love it ) and I plan to...

Yes it does...but our neighbours have this weird habit of launching all kinds of nasty stuff on our cities... :D Thanks :wink2:

Thanks for the advice - I'm limited by time and money so I'm only looking for a short orientation flight... I will spend a week in the Kissimmee area in October so other locations are not an option unfortunately...

That's why I fly a small aircraft :D We're OK thanks - our shelter is actually quite comfy...

Quite spectacular... Following an almost complete loss of power, the instructor takes the controls and lands the aircraft in a field... http://youtu.be/Lo72OwRahRc Uh...By the way, I learned to fly and passed my checkride on this aircraft !!! ( 4X-AIW )
