I probably should know this, but then the symbol probably should also be on the table of chart symbols... What does the square box over the TS symbol mean? I feel silly even asking.....

I fly vfr but have occasional trips long enough that I would like weather in the cockpit. I had hoped to find a 'sale' of the stratus ii at Osh, but it didn't seem to materialize. So I'm on to thinking about buying a used first version. I guess my thinking is that I can probably get a used...

Following my visit to OSH this year and my first ever sit down in a Pilatus pc-12, I found myself surfing the net for plane porn of this most excellent aircraft. Imagine my surprise to find a picture of my muse Jimmy Buffett landing his new Pilatus in St. Barth, which is like a double down on...

I'm thinking about taking the cherokee to D.C. for about a week starting the last weekend of this month. After taking the SFRA course and trolling around, I'm thinking I'll opt for the simplicity of flying into Leesburg. My problem is one of transportation. We had hoped to go rental car-less...

Put this in an earlier thread but haven't found an answer yet, so I hope someone out there has a little experience and will share.... I'm going to St. Louis in 6 days. will be staying downtown. It seems like from earlier threads that you can fly GA into KSTL (unlike O'Hare), and even do it in...

A sucky day all around. Woke to find my truck broken into. :frown3: Gone was the GPS, radar detector, and most importantly, my Bose X headset which was in its case along with my Logbook (which had my medical in a pocket). Besides being stunned, I'm really bummed out. I've done some searches...

I am applying for a position with the Cessna division of Textron. Has anyone here worked at Cessna (or work there currently) who would be willing to give me some information about the environment? I'm glad to hold any and all information in strict confidence. Thanks in advance, Patrick

I am, unfortunately, in the hunt for a new position. Since the last three places I worked more or less recruited me, I haven't had to seriously re-write my resume in nearly ten years. In the process, my S.O. pointed out that on the final revisions, I had removed "Licensed Private Pilot" from...

My brother in law wants wireless capability at home. I did this for myself 2 years ago, and have had a good result, and offered to help him set his up, get it secured, etc. I've seen prices for wireless routers as low as $39, but I hesitate to buy a piece of crap. Can anyone recommend a good...

I'm toying with the idea of 'borrowing' my brother's house in Ruidoso over the holidays and flying out there from Chicago. I'm a flatlander and all of my mountain and near mountain experience is in/around the parts of the appalachians where peaks are no more than around 5k. I've been reading...

I saw a vague reference in another posting about plans afoot to add xm weather capabilities to the Lowrance 2000c. I ran a couple of searches and google searches and couldn't find anything on it. Can anyone who knows the scoop fill me in?

Has anyone flown up to shop there? What's the best GA airport to fly into? Any tips greatly appreciated ! P

Got this crazy idea to fly down to the keys for new years. Finally found a place to stay.....now I need to get there. If I fly myself, I'll need to break it up and stay overnight near Atlanta. Can anyone give me a heads up on the best GA airport to fly into that has close access to a hotel...

Don't know if I've put this in the right place, but.... Bought a IISX with the additional 4 place module on Ebay. The main module works fine, but for some reason, only one of the rear seat sets of jacks works correctly. Pulled the cover, and none of the components are burned and the jack...

My sister and I just purchased a plane together. I am a newly minted ppl, and she's a 20 hr student. The plan was for me to build time and go after the instrument ticket, and her to finish the pp in our plane. She was using the same CFI that I had, and the plan was working very well. So, of...

It's a long shot, and since I just bought, I don't have a mechanic (YET), so I thought I'd turn to the net for some answers: I'd really like to replace the left seat in a 1967 Cherokee 180 C with a lower seat or an articulating seat. That's actually an understatement. I NEED to replace the seat...

Hope I haven't put this in the wrong forum. I'm a bit of a newbie, so if I have, please forgive. I'm just about done with training, and if I can get the last bit of time with checkride prep done, I'll be there before the snow melts (if this weather starts cooperating). I'm Wondering if anyone...

Anyone on this board fly out of / hangar/ tie down at Campbell Airport near Grayslake, Illinois? I'm doing some due diligence of local airports in an attempt to make buying a plane less economically unfeasilble (how's that for spin, make it a double negative! At least it works with my S.O.)...
