    Garmin Pilot for Android -- Tech Support, Tips, Tricks

    I don't believe you can set them that far out. I think 15,30nm is the max, see the attached screen shot. Get to this screen by selecting the stacked paper icon in the bottom left, then select "Ownship/Route"

    Garmin Pilot for Android -- Tech Support, Tips, Tricks

    I have as well, GP has come a long way with the recent update and I'm pleased with it on the Android platform. I intend to purchase a GDL 39 3D to replace the plain old GDL 39 this summer. Does anyone have experience with the attitude indicator display?

    How to set up internet webcam for WX at home

    FORANE, We use iSpy from http://www.ispyconnect.com/ for this purpose. It works with most IP cameras. The software is free and open source but seems to be mature in its development. If you cameras are not IP capable, you may have to turn to the manufacturer of your DVR system for a solution.

    RAID 5 with 2 dead HDDs

    There are (expensive) services that will physically open a failed hard drive in a clean room and attempt to image data directly from the disk platters with a new read head. There are also recovery services that can attempt to reassemble data from a 2 drive failure in a RAID5, but they are...

    Garmin Pilot for Android -- Tech Support, Tips, Tricks

    Several used GDL 39 hardware is selling at almost list price on eBay right now. If you sell your old device immediately you can "upgrade" for just a little more than the price difference. I'm sure the 3D version has some kind of AHRS chip in it, so a software upgrade is likely not possible. Was...

    How soon to start IFR training after PPL?

    If your main use of the PPL is tooling around the area you might have a hard time justifying the instrument rating and an even more difficult time keeping it current. Staying proficient enough to launch into solid IMC on any given day will take way more than the minimum currency requirements...

    Garmin Pilot for Android -- Tech Support, Tips, Tricks

    Same boat here. My subscription is just about up for all three - Garmin Pilot, SafeTaxi, Geo-Referenced FlightCharts. I just listed my GDL-39 on ebay since it is about to be replaced with the AHRS version, so want to sell it before its value drops off. I'm planning to vote with my wallet (by...

    Garmin Pilot for Android -- Tech Support, Tips, Tricks

    I emailed Garmin support with a basic "Hey - I love Garmin Pilot but all my friends with Foreflight keep showing me these cool features that I don't have. When will GP have these features too?" and got the following reply: [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=2] So in other...

    Garmin Pilot for Android -- Tech Support, Tips, Tricks

    Looks like Garmin is upgrading the GDL 39 by adding an AHRS roll/pitch sensor and calling it the GDL 39 3D. Saw this article from a day or two ago that seems to be one of the first announcements and shows a screenshot of an attutude indicator inside Garmin Pilot. Light on details so can't tell...

    Garmin Pilot for Android -- Tech Support, Tips, Tricks

    Getting cranky with Garmin's Android feature set compared to iOS. I have a lot invested into what is proving to be a perpetually obsolete piece of software. Been using it since fall of 2012, have a Garmin GLO and a GDL 39. Have flown with it from Seattle to Oshkosh and through Canada up to to...

    Xanax and other anxiety meds

    Dang. Thank you for your reply. I was hoping that I'd be able to get back to it without too much effort after life cools off a bit and I stop taking Xanax. I can see why so many people would not report this kind of thing or would avoid seeking it out when they actually need it. Where might...
