Portapilot, just add porta-potty and you've got everything you need for a long flight.

I agree...I was one of the original IFLY betas when they sold their first 100 IFLY 700 units. The 700 and 720 were cheap boxes with poor graphics, low brightness and very slow speeds. The 740 is much improved BUT still a poor piece of equipment compared to any other proprietary portable unit...

Check the power wire to the surefly..It should have an always hot 12v wire to it. Might have touched it to ground while messing with cap and blew fuse.

As a lifetime subscriber, I don't see much on the positive side that might come of this but I am afraid that the "lifetime" of the FLYQ product might come to an end while they start up a new product. I also doubt they'll be an interconnectivity improvement with Garmin products as Garmin is very...

There's hope, here's someone running a minimal graphics card and they're able to run FSX 2020.

I've been hesitant to address this with Aspen as I know it will be a "go back to avionics shop" answer and I'm not really wanting to go back as it's been there a few times already for other issues. In going through the E5 install manual, there are pitch and roll adjustments but they caution to...

I've got an Aspen E5 that chronically shows a slight left turn. Is there any adjustment that can be made without taking it back to a shop?

EAA is twice the value for half the dues of AOPA. Although I've owned 3 experi-MENTALS in past and built one, I currently own an Archer and find more value in EAA than AOPA. As far as insurance, I had AOPA and they were just renewing same underwriter and not checking for better rates, I saved a...

Stock is 173 hp at less than 1700 lbs. the GM 2.4 is easily boosted via a multitude of different available turbos and superchargers. There are even modified Slings with LS3s.

2015 Polaris Slingshot, (classed as motorcycle with DOT), have owned since new and has a lot of mods.

Here's a knowledgeable soul who flew from California to Saint Aviation in Florida to upgrade his panel.

The number 42 is, in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, the "Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything", calculated by an enormous supercomputer named Deep Thought over a period of 7.5 million years
