Is the leak at the wing root? Inside or outside the cockpit? I had an issue with fuel tubing between the bladders and internal hard tubings as they tend to rot over time. They are 2-4” rubber sections of tubbing. To get to them you’ll need to remove the inspection cover plate along the wing...

The world has been going crazy and the one thing that can bring peace and tranquility for us pilots is getting to spread our wings by going flying and exercising our aircraft. Unfortunately with the quarantine period of COVID19, finding a destination worth visiting for lunch or activities have...

That’s part of why Garmin released the Gi275, it fits the existing panel and replaces more existing instruments than just a G5. Also, will you be connecting to a GPS unit for NAV or an autopilot, that will weigh into the cost as well. Unfortunately the G3x will cost more in the long run both in...

I tried for LAX twice during the past two weeks at night around 11pm and midnight and I got denied. I was told they were starting to charge large landing fees again so I didn’t press any further.

Thats quite the package. If you can find a shop that will do it for $75k and in a decent amount of time, you got a great deal. The shop I had do my install did a single 10” G3x and had a hard time with spacing between the yoke and dash. The panel was not cheap imho for the one side. I will be...

In some ways I wish I went with the PMA450b. The single Bluetooth receiver is the biggest disappointment. I had the 350c installed and I have been flying with it for the last two weeks. Funny timing of your post as I have another post in my drafts that I was working on last night reviewing my...

It would be worth noting what you are planning on and what kind of aircraft. Going full glass, partial, all new round dial layout.... Creating a great custom panels is an art. Specifying equipment and installation of said equipment is not that complicated. I just got done with a full glass...

Jeff is a really nice guy and super helpful. I really liked interacting with his family during past visits and they did a bunch of work on my buddies C182 years ago. I just found Affordable was just that, affordable and available to get the work done that I need more quickly. Their pricing was...

Congrats on the potential purchase Dan. Perhaps it’s worth noting where the plane is currently based and where you intend to get it to. The ADAPT filing is pretty easy and useful. I used it for a half dozen flights in January thruought SoCal even thru the class B bravo right over LAX using...

There are always plans for new and replacement panels from Garmin that are newer and better but they don’t always make it to market. The G3X is already considered TXi in their certified form. From my understanding there isn’t any upgrade path in the works... I hope. I just had it installed...

I recommend Affordable Avionics out of Chino. Talk to Deepun and tell him I recommended their work. They also have a shop in Thermal. I like that they are a true Garmin dealer and also carry other brands like avidyne. They just completed a major avionics upgrade of my C182p with G3x, GFC500...
