    Bose A20 from Bose X

    Hey everyone, Just curious if anyone has upgraded to the A20 from the X and if it was worth it. I'm thinking about the upgrade and think the Bluetooth would be a nice feature but if the comfort/noise reduction isn't noticeably better then it isn't worth it to me. Opinions?

    Best online headset retailers

    IFR charts in magnetic?

    Hey guys, Reading the instrument oral exam guide, and the question "What are Enroute Low-Altitude Charts?" came up. As part of the answer it says "all courses are magnetic and distances are nautical miles". Does this mean when i take a course off a line that i drew on the chart, i'm reading...

    Remain within 10 nm?

    Hey guys, I'm getting ready for an instrument checkride in a week or so. One of the main things im confused on is the "remain within 10 nm" on approach plates. Everyone tells me different things about what i am remaining within 10 nm of. The one that makes the most sense to me is that you have...

    When a FSDO ends in counseling, will this go on a pilots record? And if so, how long will it go on for?
