    Base leg altitude

    Join us in FL in the land of puppy mill pilots practicing for their 747 jobs in a 172. At non-towered airports, I could pretty much do a power off 180 and be on the crosswind in the time it takes for "Echo Romeo" pilots to get from abeam the numbers to short final.

    Nav-o-matic 300 autopilot

    If you're selling, even pretty far in the future, I'd be tempted to do nothing. If you want to have a functioning AP, then I'd get something more up to date. You will not recover your investment in a new AP, so only do it if you plan on using it.

    Starter Issue

    If that wasn't done in the earlier diagnostic work, likely that's your answer.

    Bonanza crash in residential area, Augusta, GA

    Yes and then there's option 2 which is to do nothing (at least for Cherokees, Mooneys and Bonanzas). Actually, not nothing, more just keep flying the plane and land if it's bothersome.

    Garmin FlightStream 510 questions

    FS210 won't do DB updates, only move flight plans and adsb data. 510 has wifi which allows the bandwidth to move that much data.

    It's been "buggy" for the last 12 hours or so for me too.

    Headset Evaluation

    As a student, not sure why the need for bluetooth. If I were you, I'd get a used Bose or Lightspeed ANR headset. Used can be a decent discount to new and can likely be re-sold at a later date for similar $$. After you have some significant hours you'll have a better idea of what you need. For...

    First plane? Archer, Arrow, etc. any recommendations

    Interesting seeing Arrow TAS. I have an Archer 1 (Hershey bar wing). I true out at about 120kts, @ 8GPH when 8K MSL or higher. So not a lot slower. OP mentioned this as a first plane, in today's insurance mkt starting with a retract might have bigger $$ than those who started several years ago.

    Military pilots favor gliders?

    Hang gliding has very few fighter jocks, but tons of airline pilots. Not sure there is anything to infer from that.

    Etiquette for establishing 2 way radio-communication at delta

    There's a lot of potential word economy in calls to a D. I'm in puppy mill land and a call that can take 5 or 6 seconds drags on forever. Example "ER123 is approximately 10 nautical miles north of the field. Request closed traffic and we have ATIS information ECHO". My call is "Cherokee 123 10...

    Road Bump in Buying a Plane - No Place to Put It

    Try Pickens County (KJZP). I was in the shared hangar at RYY and went there for fuel. Seemed like they had plenty of options

    GDL 39 Aditional Battery

    I stand corrected. I'll just get a battery with a 12v output though, like this. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01337QXMA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    GDL 39 Aditional Battery

    There is no such thing as USB to 12 volts. There are several battery packs that also have a 12v output. You'll have to do a small bit of wiring as most don't have a cig lighter plug, but not a big deal to do.
