Re: Commercial flight question D'ont know if you have enough time but another approach might be to get with the security folks well before boarding time and show your system to them and tell them that it will simply feed data into your tablet or phone and answer their questions about it. I...

AggieMike, Don't let the negativity get you down. Keep posting when you think you have a useful idea.

Haven't heard of any problems with Foreflight but IT person working in a Bank system advises that they are having significant problem with newest IOS and false triggering of user error alarms. I'm still holding off on using it w/ Foreflight because their general guidance is to do that until...

The Pi, the SDR and the RTL along with their ancilliary developments are an outstanding achievement. However, I wonder why no one has come up with an App to work on the iPad and eliminate the extra computer a La the approach which seems to have evolved for Android systems ?

Have you operated your rig with these antennas ? Do you have the antennas' predicted performance at 978 & 1090 MHz ? Hope it works as good as it looks.

Cgrab, was this due to your not having a transponder for ADS-B ? If you had lots of traffic there should have been some weather out there somewhere. Do you have a single dongle configuration?

45000 mi + on my 2013 and I am one of those who still smiles every time I drive it.

I own a 2013 Edge Limited and am one of those who smiles every time I drive it. All of thr Frill features still operate flawlessly and I will most likely trade in model/type for 2016. Have 45000+ mi on mine.

Agree w/ Catalo. I use a leg strap all of the time and find it totally adequate. For your check ride, you definitely need a backup if the examiner decides to kill your iPad, I recommend that you be prepared with a fully charged smartphone with adequate downloads for the area you're being...

There are specific Lycoming and Continental guidelines for defining the circumstances identifying a "prop striker" as seen by the manufacturer. Another consideration is your insurance company. Many feel the cost of a prop-strike inspection repair is significantly less than any subsequent...

Another "Aye" for OSKOSH.

I believe the OP's question has been adequately addressed. The big question here seems to be why there is no FDC Notam re: the permanent closure of the OM ? Or is MAKG's input in that regard not correct ? If it is correct, why hasn't the FAA gotten around to the Notam ?

Great, if you actually got this question on your oral, you must have gotten the DPEs' answer to it. Share it with us.

Thanks for the discussion on the potential "holds" problems. We are expecting to make the last leg from somewhere in South Wisconsin to Osh on Sun A.M. and I will do some extra planning on leaving the hold spots and landing to wait out a significant problem if necessary. Newbies can't be too...

Is there an online source for Audio clearances to practice understanding and copying IFR clearances. I am aware of LiveATC but everything there seems to require an application purchase.

Just a little feedback from me. Have purchased a backup battery from Aspect Solar for use generally but specifically to be sure that I'll have freshly charged IPad and iPhone for the trip to OSHKOSH and return home. It is a product numbered SB37^ which is a rechargeable battery with 10000 mAh...

Two new questions: Anyone aware of airports which allow/welcome camping for the trip into OSHKOSH in the region of norther Ill. Or SE Wisconsin ? Any HAMs going to the big O ? Are any of you aware of relay tower availability at/near OSHKOSH ? Traveling companion would like to get on...

You may be aware of this but at least the top three have 30 day free trial subscriptions. I would think ou might just want to try them out for yourself. there can be little question that each EFB supplier is adopting what it feels to be the most important feature if the others so no doubt they...
