Watched that video and immediately bought the Sensorcon. My numbers increase during climbs and then back down to low numbers when into cruise. It's good to have that information in realtime.

Runoff is what they responded. Asked and the FBO mentioned the airport itself has the restriction.

I've done the BYOW. It works. It's just that it is really getting dirty and I wanted the convenience of not having to worry about the rinse off.

So, at my home base, they don't allow wet wash. They only allow spray-on/wipe-off type washing on the ramps. When visiting a nearby airport for fuel, I noticed a water hose on their field and I'm pretty sure washing is allowed. What is the protocol (if at all) for showing up and washing the...

What was working better: fuel pump on, mixture off, throttle 1/4", then slowly advance mixture while starting engine until it catches. However, an update - after a rough mag check during run up that wouldn't clear and A&P cleaning the plugs didn't clear it either, I replaced all spark plugs...

Isn’t it interesting how an industry could make that decision for us all… I can’t say that I have taken a train to Chicago. Although, I would like to try the scenic one that goes from Chicago to San Francisco some day.. :-).

How about NO time zones? Let’s all just go to Zulu time.. Our daily schedules can be negotiated locally..

Been a little busy lately, but here is a screenshot using my Stratux as my weather source and Radar layer on..

Oh, yes.. misread, but I do get Nexrad from ADSB. My source is the L3 Lynx NGT-9000 transponder. I still have the Stratux from before I upgraded my transponder in 2019, but can't recall if it worked for Nexrad. Next time I fly, I will try it again.

I have FlyQ and on version 6.0.2. I recall always having the ability to see precip when using the radar layer (both radar and animated). Is that what you are referring to? Here’s a screenshot..

Somebody in Georgia must have washed their car the day before...

207 hours of mostly IFR training, with family visits to SC and FL, plus a memorable trip to Big Bend.

As suspected, the gap was there on the real unit. Not a problem to handle the discontinuity by just directing it to the next point. I just wanted to make sure I was learning this correctly. Thanks everyone for the input.

I'll try on my real unit this weekend and report back.

Hey, how'd you do that? :) I'm on the IFD Trainer v10.3 on my iPad and set to IFD440 mode, but cannot connect them.

No, there's no CLR option. Also, I think I see what's going on. Looking closer at the arrival description, it states expect radar vectors after reaching DIFFI. I guess just expect the gap? arg.

Good article, but I'm trying to connect the arrival to the approach. Also, highlighting the gap gives no option to clear. Weird.

IFR student here and looking to see how any of you would handle a gap in route on your IFD (440 in my case). Flight plan is KLGC -> KRYY and I want to use the DIFFI arrival starting at LGC and then any approach to KRYY (let's try RNAV 9). I enter KLGC -> LGC -> KRYY, add the DIFFI arrival, and...

Current Alarus owner here... As far as maintenance goes, it is not very well known as a make/model, but the shop I send it to has reviewed the manuals and have been maintaining it well for me. The engine (Lycoming O-235-N2C), airframe (mostly aluminum), flight controls, and instruments are...
