    CFI Insurance

    I chose to get my insurance through SAFE. They seem to have the best coverage and pricing was substantially better than AOPA. I do some multi instruction so that made the SAFE policy substantially better.

    GNX 375 GPS dropouts

    Glad you found the issue. Mine were with Narco 12D+radios. A notch filter fixed it but interestingly mine was happening on com 1 but the notch filter had to be installed on com 2 to solve the problem.

    GNX 375 GPS dropouts

    Was this happening while you were transmitting on your Com? I had the issue when I first installed my GNX375 and It was an interference/feedback issue with the ELT when transmitting on the Com at frequencies lower on the band especially between 120.5-121.5. I see Galveston tower is 120.575...

    While I haven’t used them myself Leatherique has a very good reputation in classic auto (especially classic Porsche) circles. I would purchase their products and follow their instructions. http://www.leatherique.com/

    PA28R-200 Air Tex interior

    Not an Arrow but I just did the seats with Airtex full leather in my PA28-180 a couple of months back. Very doable on your own. It is a bit tedious and much more physical than you would expect. Took me about 12 hours over two days to do. Materials and stitching were top notch and it turned...

    NARCO MK 12D Trouble Shoot

    I have two 12D+ that have been very reliable. Just recently had a display go bad and due to long lead times on new Garmin Nav/COMs I repaired it. Mikes Avionics had it diagnosed repaired and back to me in a week. I’d highly recommend sending it to him. At the time Bevans told me it would be...

    Listed Price vs Offer

    That’s what’s known as shopping an offer and at least in my state is illegal. Telling all parties that there are multiple offers and to submit their highest and best to be considered is the legal way to do it.

    I find the split screen of my GNX375 a non issue. As said above after two presses it usually has the shortcut pop up to what I’m looking for.

    Upholstery / interior re-do’s. Cost?

    I just redid the seats in my Cherokee with Airtex leather. Full leather total cost was $3100. The quality of the material and stitching is really good. Very happy with what I got for the price. My carpet side panels and headliner were in good shape so I kept them.But I did refinish the...

    Cheapest IFR Panel - Starting from nothing?

    Dual G5s cannot replace the entire 6 pack. You would still need an altimeter, ASI and turn and bank.

    GPS drops out on Garmin GNC355

    I had this issue with my GNX375 specifically at lower frequencies around 121.xx. It was interference from my old ELT. Filter on the Com eliminated my problem.

    Swimming pool experts?

    Ditto this. Would never go to chemical pool. My salt pool is nearly maintenance free. You will spend much more $ on keeping up chlorine tabs than replacing the salt cell every few years. I highly recommend you read www.troublefreepool.com and follow the advise on pool maintenance from them...

    Can't answer any of the Pi questions but wanted to say your maps look great. I built one last year for my CFI/DPE using all of the information and programming from www.livesectional.com along with most of their parts list. Had a few addressing problems with the lights but finally got it...

    Anyone with a Garmin GPS175 ?

    Have had a GNX 375 for going on 3 years now. Absolutely love it. Works flawlessly with ForeFlight and as said above easily updateable with standard SD card. I have two that I just swap for updates. I did all of my instrument training with it. Touch screen works well and it’s easy to get...
