Our club is going to have a 406mhz ELT installed in our C172K, which currently has a stand-alone 121.5 without a remote switch or remote antenna. I'm considering the ACK E-04 and the new Artex E435, which both take a GPS-in from our Garmin 430W. The manufacturers claim a 2.5 hour install time...

Hi guys -We've got an opening in Connecticut Valley Flyers. Share a great '69 C172K w/ 180hp constant speed conversion (climbs well) and WAAS Garmin 430. Plane flies about 200 hours a year, so there's great availability. Never a problem to reserve it for weekend trips. I'll double check...

We're visiting my 9 year old triplet nephews on Saturday (Stoneham, north of Boston, we'll probably fly in to Beverly, KBVY), and promised them a flight. On the way up Saturday morning, my wife and I were hoping to find a great restaurant for breakfast. Any places you guys would suggest? This...

Hi guys, I just got my IFR rating (http://www.pilotsofamerica.com/forum/showthread.php?t=62165) and am planning to start the studying for my Commercial and CFI knowledge exams. I'll probably get the advanced ground instructor rating while I'm at it. Once that's done, I'll worry about finding...

Got my private, no longer need it! :) I need to sell it, so I can buy IFR training materials now (if anyone has Sportys/King DVD's they're willing to sell/rent/lend/trade in the NorthEast, I'll fly over from KHFD). It was $215 new, I'll sell it for $150 shipped. Nothing has been written in...

Hi guys, As a new private pilot (passed my checkride a month ago), I've been enjoying flying to visit friends and family in the north east (Saratoga Springs, NY 3 weeks ago, and KEEN last weekend). Tomorrow morning I'm planning on going to KBVY from KHFD, and was thinking of doing the Boston...
