    Hobbies other than flying

    I used to be really into waterskiing, wakeboarding and boating. When I started flying and later bought the plane, I sold the boat. Still have a SeaDoo so I can get out on the lake.

    Finding a hangar

    I rented the hangar first. It’s an insulated T-hangar with electric for $300 per month. Ended up buying the plane a year later. Even though I paid for the year with no plane, I was still able to use it to store some things.

    C182 Engine Monitor

    I recently installed a JPI 830 in my 182S. I got a quote from all the main online avionics distributors and ended up saving a few bucks off of what was advertised. Installation was around $1700.

    Garmin 375 with G5 Hsi installation costs?

    I agree. Buy what makes you happy and fulfills your mission. I do find it funny sometimes when people that go through the trouble and expense of earning their pilot certificate because they love to fly then go out and buy a plane that will get them to their destination and back on the ground...

    "Pappy Boyington" ( Robert Conrad )gone West

    I saw an interview with him once where he was telling a story about flying with the real Pappy Boyington. Robert Conrad had earned his Private Pilot Certificate in order to prepare for the roll. He said he later bought a Bonanza (I think) and used to fly it back and forth to the set. One time...

    Upgrade to new primary engine monitor but keeping old gauges - CHT probe question

    When I had my JPI 830 installed, the spark plug gasket style probe went to the JPI and the probe for the original gauge was left in place. However, the 830 is not certified for primary so I had no choice. Since your engine monitor is, I would install the probes as Stephen Shore suggests...
