Seemingly overnight. No other indications of any problems. Thoughts? Thanks! G

As the title suggests, looking for a good stop over in northern to central Florida. I'd rather make the trip down the keys in good daylight. Thanks in advance!

Hi all, Does anyone know how to get the certificated TruTrak into setup mode so the numbers can be tweaked? Thanks! G Edit: for clarity I downloaded the experimental manual but that buttonology didnt work.

Hi all, I got vectored this weekend to an IF of an RNAV approach (KDAN RNAV 20, direct to HIVDO while approaching the area from the north). There were two IAF's that would have been workable options. Is this legit? Should I have accepted this clearance...

Hi all, Can anyone with the certificated TruTrak let me know if the unit WILL or WILL NOT follow the vertical guidance from a GPS LNAV+V, or LNAV/VNAV. I'm aware that it will do LPV. I've got a 430W if that matters. Thanks!! G

N40, or is that just camping? Thanks, G

Hi all, This year we are flying the 182 in, but camping in Scholler. We'll have quite a bit of stuff in the airplane to lug to the campground. Does anyone have any great ideas how to transport these things, other than like four trips back and forth? Thanks! George

Hi all! I'm pretty familiar with the rate that GA Camping fills up during the opening weekend, but less so for parking. This year I'm staying in Camp Scholler, so I'd like to know what to expect for parking. Any advice? Thanks! George

Hi all, Word is that the 182 is relatively "roomy", but the overall width at 42" seems exactly the same as a PA-28. Can anyone with experience in both comment on the reality of the situation. P.S. I'm rather more clear on the difference in back seat room, particularly on the short body...

Hi all! Check out these two approaches. Very different minimums. Can anyone tell me why this Yankee approach exists? https://skyvector.com/airport/BUR/Bob-Hope-Airport Regards, G Edit: I think I get it, the Missed procedure requires a much higher performance climb out on the Zulu...

Hi all, Working on my IFR, and planning a trip in the fall to KEYW. One thing I'm not keen on is a long flight over the bay in my PA-28. I'd like to follow Rt1 to and from KEYW until at least the upper keys before turning north. One issue I see is that V3 has a ridiculous MCA of 14500...

Hi all, Working on my IFR currently, and considering my airplane's equipment. I have a PA-28-161 with a pretty nice panel. Here's the inventory: 430W w/ GI-106A KX-155 w/ KI-208 (no GS) GTX-345 Stec 20 (No alt static source) This setup has a lot of capability, but not much redundancy. For...

is grim :(

Hi all! First time flying my own airplane to KOSH, and first time camping there as well. I'm curious about the mechanics of getting in, and particularly out, of the camp site. 1) Should I plan to pack some boards for under the gear? Is the site ever soft? 2) On the way out, I noticed the...

Hi all, Looking for a small electric heater that is safe and reliable enough to be left on in the overnight hours so that the cockpit is warm in the morning. Any suggestions? Thanks! George

Hi all, I have a 89 Warrior/Cadet with an O-320-D3G. It currently has 1800 SMOH with a much newer top end, and is running very sweetly. So this question is more of a hypothetical. For reference, the airplane is in really nice shape. 3,000 hours or so TTAF, great paint, good interior, well...
