    Is there a page that lists the engines in piston singles?

    Here is a site that I frequently visit. It doesn't always have the actual engine but it does show HP which would help identify engine type. http://www.risingup.com/planespecs/ John

    POA Roll-Call, Airventure 2011

    Jay, When does your group usually meet and depart KIOW? I am not exactly sure what days my son and I are going to go this year, but it would be fun to travel with a group of airplanes. I have my Bonanza hangared at KCID, but could come down to KIOW to meet and depart with your group. I don't...

    IFR training question

    I understand you on that comment. I was given the program from a friend who received 2 when they ordered theirs. I figured it couldn't hurt given the cost. Not so sure that was the case now. :eek: John

    IFR training question

    My DPE didn't mention a single incorrect answer on my IFR written test. I scored a 76. I was nervous about getting grilled over the items that I missed. My CFII and I went over things several times prior to the check ride. I wasn't proud of the score as I thought that I had prepared myself...

    Tornado at RIPON - good thing today's not OSH!

    I know that MN and WI have been getting pounded with rain the last few days. I certainly hope we don't get a repeat of what happened last year. I ended parking on the ramp at Orion. John

    POA Roll-Call, Airventure 2011

    My plans have changed since I posted last. Sounds like I will be arriving with my 13 year old son Saturday PM (maybe flying with the B2OSH group) and staying until after the show on Wednesday. Parking in either the North 40 or the vintage parking and staying in a rented house in Oshkosh. Is...

    Panel Mods?

    Use your IFR training to get the additional X/C times. I needed 15+ hours before I started my IFR training. Planning some area flights over 50nm and throwing in different phases of the training allows you to do that. You will also need to plan and fly a x/c as well. John

    POA Roll-Call, Airventure 2011

    My son and I will arrive on Wednesday and leave on Sunday morning. We plan to fly the Bonanza and park in the Vintage section. The night show on Saturday was too good last year to pass up again. We plan to camp with friends in Waupaca, WI and drive back and forth to the show. John

    Our new baby (with wings)

    A couple of items I will add to the discussion as I have several hours in a 2002 DA40. The stick vs. yoke was fairly easy for me and didn't take too long to feel comfortable. I do have time in a Citabria, although it's opposite as far as which had you are using for flight. I have a knee board...

    iPad - an EFB?

    I am using my Haicom BT GPS receiver on my iPad. I took the advice of another person on the Red Board and performed a jailbreak on it. While I was typically getting 5m to 10m accuracy, after the jailbreak I am getting anywhere between 0.70 to 0.85m accuracy now. :thumbsup: John
