    Can anyone tell me if the Garmin G5 aside from replacing the DG and the attitude indicator is an authorized replacement for the ball and rate turn indicator or does it just offer redundancy and can not be a primary instrument for those two turn? Thanks in Advance.

    I have a plumbing question I'm sure someone in here can answer. This weekend I had to drain the water in the hot water system. (moving one baseboard around) To speed up the refill process I tried lifting the lever on the water pressure regulator. Just a few inches beyond the water pressure...

    ForeFlight getting cute?

    I was able to send an approach plate to the map but no more. Although I didn't land this way it as a good way to quickly visualize my direction and entry point into an approach. No more! I was also able to see where I was on the airport. No more! Take features away in order to convince users to...

    Insurance limits question

    We are a club and incorporated with limits of 100,000/1M on our two planes. I was told by the insurance company that is the highest they allow. We have two 172's and 30 members. 100K per person seems like not enough and frankly 1M can disappear quickly too depending on the accident. I can see...

    difference between 1/2 cuban 8 and immelmann

    I just watched a video of some basic acrobatics and both a half cuban 8 and an immelmann were performed. To me they look basically the same. They look to be a half loop and then a half roll to come out level and in the opposite direction. Unless I'm not seeing it correctly, what is the...

    Ideal day and time to arrive at KOSH

    Is Sunday the right day to arrive and does the arrival capacity ever max out on a Sunday? We'd like to arrive Sunday but is it necessary to get there 8am? I don't recall exactly but I think Monday last year they stopped taking in any more planes due to all the arrivals. Thanks in advance

    Bocca di Falco airport in Palermo

    Anyone in here fly at this airport? I believe there's a flying club based there. In the next few months I'm headed to Italy and will be in this region of Sicily. Would love to see the airport or even get up a bit. Happy to reciprocate in the NY City area too.

    garmin 400W question coupled to a Kap140

    first question is to load an approach but not to immediately activate it just puts it at the end of all the other already loaded way points. To immediately activate it puts it up front and bypasses all other way points. If you agree, lets get to the real question. So lets say I'm humping along...

    IFR in actual harder day or night?

    I'm a low time IFR pilot. No autopilot time at all and never seen IMC at night. Is there a difference? Is it easier to commit to the instruments at night because there's no chance of seeing anything out of the window or is daytime easier because the panel is easier to see? I'm mostly talking...
