I am curiously shopping for a possible upgrade to the Comanche, not in speed but in comfort. I have always loved the Commander 114-115 and was curious about the wing life. I understand that the life limit was basically made up for certification under the new Part 23. Can one simply find a...

I have been using the 480 for years and feel pretty comfortable with it except for one, potentially dangerous scenario. On an RNAV approach that DOES NOT have T-fixes, the 480 always wants you to fly the hold. Regardless if you are perfectly lined up for a straight in. My work around has been to...

I'll start this off. I have an old plane and love it but also enjoy shopping (dreaming) of my next aircraft. I feel there are gaps in the market with lots of room for improvements. Taking price out of the equation, what is your realistic dream airplane (as in could be kit built or manufactured)...

Anyone use the AV20S primarily as an angle of attack indicator? I’m curious how accurate it can interpolate the AoA by using just pitot/static inputs.

Just hanging out at work and watching the **** hit the fan. With Indianapolis Center closed for two days now, lots of planes have been rerouted through ZKC and other surrounding facilities. Sounds like New York TRACON or Center just closed a few mins ago. Yesterday they were telling us to study...

Congrats to The Airplane Factory. I’m impressed at the Rotax 915 Sling Tsi performance. FL270 is not a friendly spot for non-pressurized GA planes but wow. Looked like it made it up there easily. Can’t wait for Oshkosh! https://www.airplanefactory.com/aircraft/sling-tsi-ktoa-to-kosh/

I’ve glanced through the Garmin Manuals online for the new Garmin 175/375 and haven’t found what I’m looking for. Will the Garmin GPS175 run a remote mounted GTX33ES? The timer key on the 175 is a little redundant with my MidContinent timer and I’m wondering if the key can be used as the xpondr control.

Beech Baron picked up Severe Icing and went down around KLBL. Two on board, R.I.P. N4817M departed KMTJ heading to Branson, MO.

I know most people will say putting an older GPS into the plane isn't worth the trouble but I have a question. I am looking to make my plane a /G instead of the current /A. My partner in the plane isn't IFR yet (might be a year or two) and we've talked about putting the Avidyne IFD440 in. Money...

Has anyone been thinking about adding the RC Allen Electronic DG and AI to their panel? All the talk about Garmin's G5 and Dynon D10, it seems like nobody is chatting about RC Allen. I like how they fit into the 3" holes and look really clean. No protruding screens and I particularly like the...
