My engine out experience came on the first flight after annual. Stay close to the airport for a while.

23 is a mile long. That spot is just outside the departure end which suggests that the Cirrus was approx 1 mile to the right of 30 on his downwind. That doesn't sound so tight to me. Ever lose an engine in the pattern? I have and truth be told I dont see a problem with that lateral placement...

Out of curiosity Proper, what is it that you would ask for? Which dangerous activities do you want to stop? Flight? Flight over people?

Im based at FDK and have a very different take than you. I find it less scary since the tower opened. Maybe I am odd, but I dont depend on them seeing me or anything else. My view is that they are responsible for deciding who lands in what order. Once I am relieved of that decision process I...

Nope, I am suggesting that the one with more modern radios will sell faster even with disparate prices. In a few cases, possibly. But mostly Im not convinced purely due to the astronomical cost of upgrading avionics today. Even for modest upgrades. Thanx for the clarification. Ive actually been...

Nope. Its an opinion. Its mine. I have come to have it from spending the last 6 months in the market for an airplane. I am quite comfortable with it. Holes in what theory? That planes with with old stacks and panels sit on the market for a longer period of time than planes with newer modern...

I think we already know what the market will do. Today there are tons of old airframes sitting on the market for months and months with old radios, etc. because the cost of upgrades to last decades technology is ridiculous. When old airframes hit the market with new radios and equipment they are...

Interesting. And you know this was the FAA how? Did he ask for your account numbers to verify your information? Not sure i would have gone down any path with them.

I just recently got a $82K quote for the following for a Lance: GMA340 GTN650 GNC255A GI106 GTX327 STEC30 w GPSS GTS800 CGR30P Engine Analyzer Now arguably the GTS800 is not necessary for a comparison, but it does not cost the the same as an MFD update like a G500. The idea that you can take...

Not even close really. Have you priced real honest to God avionics installs by getting quotes that consider labor and supplies? You can easily spend $80K just for Nav/Com/AP/Engine/GPS without even touching PFD's.

Actually I think thats incorrect. LS aircraft can if equipped to do so, its the LS pilots that cant. No?

My business partner has had a similar issue with his 5 series in the past. Do you keep your key hung up near the car? His problem was that after a few dead batteries while being parked in the garage it turns out that if his car senses that the keys are proximate, it never powers itself down. He...

Not limiting, just a preference. I like the ability to walk round the back without walking round the HS. I also think its a much prettier plane. And I do intent to stare at times :) I hear ya Henning. Though to be honest with the re-write heaven knows when this stuff will actually hit. I wasn't...

Actually Henning, I am not sure about that, at least not in this case. I have been wanting to find something turn key as I hadn't wanted to put the time into a project. Though I might very well go that route. One thing I have found that I just went through is that owners don't like to part with...

Looking to buy a nice lance, club interior, preferably T tail. Looking for something with up to date avionics and a nice interior. It seems like most everything out there is 20 years out of date. PM me if you know of something. John

The nose gear on those things must take a pounding at the bottom of the 'ramp'. I imagine that is a healthy shove in the vertical direction. Wowsers
