History: We installed the 345/430 a couple of years ago but have been experiencing the communication issue on the 530 since shortly after install. It is annoying but since we fly with iPads, the lack of traffic on the 530 isn't an issue for us. As you can see it is all Garmin so I hope we can...

So I made the mistake of joining "Nextdoor" which is on par with the political/emotional debates that made me leave Facebookz. I am certain that in other areas of the county you have the same type of folks that complain about airport noise. Now we have apps like flight radar to prove that...

We are looking to go the owner install route and under supervision of our IA. Looking through the install manual and it appears to be pretty straightforward. So far the only changes to the airframe I see are drilling out three rivets in the L-aileron. The quote was around $9K installed but the...

It has been a while since I took a checkride. It was a challenging rating requiring attention to detail, precision and patience, three things I lack... Also there was an inordinate amount of time spent on my weak areas, crosswinds, landings and crosswind landings. I would do it again.

Flight of two, a Mooney and a 182. We will provide instruction. A great opportunity to plan and fly long legs, in formation, through many types of weather and log XC or simulated instrument.

Our R182 "Gertie" had a little plastic surgery over the holidays, a little nip/tuck if you will. Added two G5's and removed the vacuum system. So far I am amazed, the price was right, they integrate nicely with the GMA350/GNS530/GNS430/GTX345. Now we have put parts money down for a GFC500 and...
