    2nd weekend in a row TFRd by Trump :(

    I'm based at F45 (North Palm Beach County) and finding my flight plans flummoxed thanks to the Mars a Lago, the "Winter White House." These little vacays the President indulges in are cutting a serious swath through GA in our area. LNA, a bustling non-towered field, is in the no-fly zone and is...

    Any pilots with cochlear implants here?

    My pilot husband is trying to figure out the best way to work his in the cockpit. Does anyone plug his/hers into the panel directly? Thanks for responses! Allison

    Who's done IR and Commercial simultaneously

    or close to that? I've been getting hints that I could get some flying gigs from a local source (nothing too complicated) if I would get my commercial... it is a little tempting, as I will have all the hours required by the time I finish my IR. Has anyone done one right after the other, and...

    VOR checks for Garmin before IFR flight?

    OK, I understand the VOR checks I need in the preceding 30 days for my nav2 radio, but are the same checks required/apply for my Garmin 650, if I'm using that as a VOR nav instrument, as well? Maybe an obvious question, but not sure....

    Any XPlane experts here?

    OK, so I got XPlane 10 for Christmas. So far, I've got the basics down, but I see there are dozens of cool downloads for better scenery. OK, I download one airport package from the Xplane community site, extract the files in my custom scenery folder, (as instructed), and then it doesn't show...

    Any pilots here with cochlear implants?

    I have a pilot friend who is losing his hearing and is going to be evaluated for cochlear implants, before he loses his hearing entirely. If he gets them, he'll learn how to hear again, but, of course, he's worried about his ability to use a headset, etc... Anyone here have experience with...

    Sent my hubby to Oshkosh this morning

    to take transition training at Sonex. I was going to go in 2 weeks, when my schedule opened up, only to learn that they shut down operations on Dec 1... I guess Wisconsin winters are no joke! Hubby reports a safe arrival, 17 degrees.

    Do you get hold instructions

    that often? Just curious how often GA pilots get put into holds. I imagine it depends on the airspace?

    Buying a Sonex!

    Really excited, my hubby and I just made a deal on a sweet tri-gear Sonex. We already own a Grumman Tiger, so this will be primarily my hubby's commuter plane... he works at an FBO that's a 60-70 minute drive away on a dark, treacherous country road... so now he'll fly airport-to-airport in 15...

    Aspen Evolution paired with Century IIB autopilot

    Hi, all- Our Grumman just had its CII-B autopilot repaired, so we are finally able to use it... but unsure of procedures since it's slaved to a Garmin 650 and an Aspen Evolution. The Century and its manual pre-date that equipment, so not much help. Anyone able to point to anything online for...
