    Is there any benefit to calling the AMCD periodically while cert is under review?

    I’m in the same situation. My AME said calling the RFS doesn’t do anything. My numerous calls have done nothing. How do we push this up the chain of command (if there is such a thing in this case)? I’d like to see an automatic approval after the 60 days they say it should take to review and...

    To BasicMed or Stay with 3rd Class

    As long as getting a 3rd class is no issue, no reason to change IMHO. You can always just let it expire and switch if something changes… The pro to basicmed is when the FAA starts asking for yearly/costly stuff your doc says aren’t needed and is willing to help you manage, and sign off on the form.

    IFR Clearance you Cannot Follow

    Absolutely request a different approach - citing your need to stay close to land. I’ve done that on departure clearances as well. You can also put ‘no over water beyond 2 miles’ (or whatever you want) in the comments when you file. Never accept a clearance you don’t like.

    Adding a flight review to ForeFlight

    Endorsements are under Instructor Tools…. You can have the instructor sign in the app and the record is locked. To unlock you have to remove the endorsement.

    G1000 Updating Procedure

    That is what we do - use the same card for PFD and MFD. Top one is where the new info goes. I think the bottom card just stays put. It has been a while since I’ve done it …

    Partial Panel in TAA aircraft

    If you lose the magnetometer, the HSI should revert to using the GPS track. It is not a heading but pretty close except in high crosswinds… Loss of all electrical power is extremely rare. Losing an alternator is certainly a risk, but just puts you on the battery for as long as it lasts…

    Partial Panel in TAA aircraft

    Our DPE’s fail the primary attitude instrument- whatever that is … All acknowledge that there is no more ‘partial panel’ on TAA aircraft. The backup is typically a fully functional attitude instrument, which is a huge safety factor. Only one failure is realistic. As long as the pilot knows his...

    dual pic and under the hood (simulated instrument)

    You can log whatever you want, however without a panel mounted gyro instrument (TC, T&B, Attitude gyro), I doubt any real audit would find that time legit as ‘flying by reference to instruments’ Check with the DPE before counting on that time for any additional ratings…

    Avionics upgrades

    I am getting ready to do the 300XL to GNC355 upgrade in my RV-7A. Remove and replace is the only way. If you don't already have an ARINC 429 unit, you will need one for the 355. The new unit is a lot longer than the 300XL so behind the panel work is required. The new antenna has a TNC...

    Garmin gnc300XL...

    I was just able to log on to my Jeppesen account and add an update to my cart. The Garmin site doesn’t even recognize the 300XL as a product! Not surprised…
