    Credit Card Rewards Programs

    I've played the game heavily. Been lax this lady half year. Done multiple 2 person biz international awards with maxed routing including stop overs plus open jaws etc. I wouldn't call them free, there was a little cost to everything, but I still made out significantly ahead. All the...

    Citizen watches?

    Looks like my wedding watch. Stiletto echo drive. I liked it. But a bit formal for my everyday wear. Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk

    Don't forget to drain that FSA!

    seemed as good a reason as any to grab a pulse oximeter.

    Server Search Saga

    unfortunately neither true nor false.... Remote Desktop Protocol is the name of the protocol used. And Remote Desktop as an application name typically refers to the application actually named mstsc.exe (Microsoft terminal services client). Now starting with server 2008 microsoft changed the...

    Server Search Saga

    I'm sure somethings could be offloaded, however OP had a requirement for Quickbook features that were only available in the locally installed version and not the hosted version. The other thread on reqs also seemed to imply the internet connection was neither fast nor reliable. However...

    Server Search Saga

    Looks like an HP shop. DISCLAIMER: I do not sell IT products nor do IT for hire. Just experience bundling some servers up for various project deliverables. Although usually the servers i deal with are in the 30-50k range per server... You could always buy your own printers after, but if...

    XC Logging .. again

    Yes as midlifeflyer points out. it's all XC by definition of a landing point other than departure. But the real question is of that XC how much is countable towards a cert. myflightbook allows you to keep track of XC, XC<50nm, and XC>50nm all individually if one choosed. I'm going with...

    XC Logging .. again

    61.1(b) Cross-country time (II)(B) "That includes a point of landing that was at least a straight-line distance of more than 50 nautical miles from the original point of departure; and" To me that does not say the destination must be 50nm from the point of departure, only that a point of...

    XC Logging .. again

    KHEF -20nm> KCJR -53nm> KMRB -46.3nm> KHEF looking for 61.101c XC time to count a rating, eventually. i suppose another interpretation could be that only the kcjr->kmrb is 61.101c XC time.

    XC Logging .. again

    i believe i have this right... but when do we not. Just went out for the morning today. For those following along in skyvector, etc. KHEF -> KCJR (full stop, but did not leave plane) -> KMRB -> KHEF I would like to log it as Flight 1. KHEF->KCJR (XC <50nm) and Flight 2...

    Samsung Pay - Game Changer

    Processing the transaction at the table is not strictly euro. I've had this done in Brazil, ecuador, belize, austrailia, new zealand, and french Polynesia. Brazil was the worst because they did not understand chip + signature and kept wanting me to put a pin in. And I spoke no Portuguese.

    High Wing single engine circling over Burke, Va?

    As Mike I stated, a little usb dongle you can use to get 1090 messages. As to mlat, I know for sure my flight aware feed is using it, I believe fr24 is as well. I'm running both feeders.

    High Wing single engine circling over Burke, Va?

    Ever since I put up an Rtl-sdr 1090 receiver I see them circling often. Weekly at least. At one point saw two of them circling same area with a 2k altitude difference. Sent from my SM-T320 using Tapatalk

    Diamond DA40NG in the US

    It'd be nice if Diamond might do an STC and parts to get the older ones up to the MTOW of 2822 like that one. Its a whole 170 lbs more. I just started renting DA40s now, transitioned from ppl in a 20. They are nice aircraft. I'm lucky in that one of the available rentals is a standard...

    Waze GPS APP

    All for using the cell phone for GPS, do it all the time. But as a reminder, since i don't think it was mentioned. Unless you have one of the apps that specifically does this offline, you may find yourself staring at a blank map and getting no directions if you have no data signal. I think...

    Best tropical vacation spot in the US in winter?

    Already being on the west coast and sticking to US territories: I'd look at Guam and Hawaii. After going to Hawaii from the east coast, i think I'll be trying Virgin islands next time i'm looking for islands. second'ing Belize though, warmest water i've been in for diving.
