    Garmin Pilot - GDL39r

    Okay, over the weekend I saw another pilot using ForeFlight on his iPhone. He connected with WIFI and had ADS traffic on his phone through the data signal...the same thing I see when I'm connected to the GDL39r. He doesn't need an Stratus receiver. Either I don't know how to do this on my...

    Garmin Pilot - GDL39r

    Okay, I'll stay the course. My experience with Amazon is they let me try out devices and can return them without any trouble. I'll put it in the sun and see if I'll be able to see the screen. I'm not sure where my pixel phone is on the scale, but it's okay...not brilliant in full sun, but I...

    Garmin Pilot - GDL39r

    I haven't heard of iflygps until now. Maybe I'll look at it in Sept when my GP subscription expires. I bought a samsung s6 lite last night. Didn't think about the brightness you mentioned above... Maybe I'll cancel the order and consider that in my purchase. Thank you

    Garmin Pilot - GDL39r

    Okay, I'm going to get an Android tablet. The pixel tablet would probably make me happiest...but the price is really depressing me. Since I will likely only use this for flying I don't think I should spend $500 on a tablet.

    Garmin Pilot - GDL39r

    I read old posts saying Garmin Pilot isn't as good on Android as iPad. Is this a platform preference or a real functionality issue? I have operated Garmin Pilot on my pixel phone for almost a year and haven't noticed any glitches or crashing. My complaint is the small screen, so I'm looking...

    Velocity

    That's a nice looking plane. As I get more serious about this, I will definitely go check these out in person. Hopefully they are on display at Oshkosh next year...

    Velocity

    Oh Yeah... My mistake. I suppose this is probably within the range I'm handling the warrior...I doubt I'm much above 50 at the touch down most of the time. I definitely need to start paying attention. If I want to step it up to the next level, I should know what speed I'm bringing it down...

    Velocity

    Stalling at 65 and having it at 70 over the number sounds like great flying. I don't even know how fast I'm going when I land the warrior. 70 until I'm at the run way, then just keep straight and hold it off the runway at idle as long as I can. It stalls at 44. The horn sounds once in a...

    Velocity

    70 knts over the numbers with no flaps... So you kill the speed with attitude? I'm at 70 knots until I know I've made the runway, but with flaps I'm sure it drains the power more efficiently. I'm a student pilot still in a Warrior, contemplating my next plane. This one keeps coming up. I'll...

    Garmin Pilot - download troubles

    I was having similar problems. Called Garmin tech support. She had me uninstall the app and reinstall. After that, everything downloaded and updated properly. Such a relief...I thought I was going to have to buy an iPad and use foreflight. I haven't used foreflight, so I can't be certain...
