    Air Wagner..... He’s baaaaackk.

    Stumbled on this guy's channel a few days ago and liked the first video I saw -- he had a friendly demeanor, disarming personality, and seemed like an experienced guy. Watched several more videos and started scratching my head like "there is some strange stuff happening here." Did a Google...

    No heading bug

    This is how I've done it, and it's worked pretty well. I wasn't sure if I was missing something obvious though. Thanks all! Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    No heading bug

    Just curious, for those of you that don't have a heading bug you can set when ATC assigns you a heading on departure or whenever, how do you remember? Write it down, just commit it to memory, or something else? Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Sully: liked it.

    Yeah, really not meant to be taken as a serious list put together by a real pilot judging actual pilot qualities of these characters -- for entertainment purposes only ... or not. I thought his comments on ageism and the value of guts & instincts were right on re: "Sully." Sent from my XT1254...

    If pilots, movies, debates, and sarcasm are your thing (and if you're reading this thread, they are), then this is the article for you. https://theringer.com/who-is-the-best-fictional-pilot-of-all-time-3dc9863fbc34#.zdppbpz8u Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Nevermind those aren't notams, they must be heavy traffic alert areas.

    Another feature I stumbled across -- zoom in on an airport in VFR dynamic map mode and it gives you a hi-res layout of the airport. Runways, taxiways, FBOs, and current notams even! That's pretty cool.

    Garmin Pilot for Android -- Tech Support, Tips, Tricks

    Overall features and snappiness of the program. It looks cleaner and runs cleaner (granted my iPad is brand new). Better features. Just as an example, if I go to the flight plan tab and just start typing in waypoints, the whole nav log with all the info I want just auto populates below (see...

    Garmin Pilot for Android -- Tech Support, Tips, Tricks

    Guys, I hate to say this but I finally relented and bought an iPad mini 2 and transferred my GP subscription over to it (simple and free to do). Holy crap, the iOS version is vastly superior. I think that goes without saying since it's something we've complained about on this thread for a while...

    Got a big work shed! Now what?

    Thanks for the feedback! Zeroing in on maybe trying an RV kit, heard they have a really basic starter subkit potentially for ~$800? Or I could start with the more obvious subkit for the empennage and see how she goes. Meanwhile, ordered Ron W's beginner builder book so I can find out how...

    Got a big work shed! Now what?

    Just moved to a new house and I now have a decently big work shed. Its about garage-sized and has electricity and lights and cement floor, but otherwise is pretty old. Anyways, I am pretty ignorant on the mechanics side of this whole flying thing and really want a project to work on that will be...

    Anyone here provide a LiveATC feed?

    Good to know! Thanks.

    Anyone here provide a LiveATC feed?

    Local News Story this morning.

    The comments were largely positive too. Thought there'd be more "Gordon Tech-o" accusations getting tossed around on there.

    Google Photo

    And so what. Don't use the free Internet then, and don't search the world's information instantaneously again. Gov't can take your civil liberties away; Google can show you relevant ads about hotels. You fear the latter more than the former. I don't get it. :dunno:

    What do you budget for a pre buy?

    For those untrained eyes, why should I be aghast at what I'm looking at here? What is wrong? I want to be offended but have no idea what's happening in this picture.
