  1. Most likely needs lubrication. Cheaper option over sending it in. Watch the speed brake open on the ground, I bet it's not fully open, then pops back down? It's a safety feature. Take it to a mechanic who has experience on them and NEVER pull them out of the down position, you could damage the system.
  2. WnB Pro. It has sliders instead of numbers for its "data entry" section so that you can instantly see how weight will change your CG. Setting it up is easy if you have a good understanding of weight and balance... ie station locations, weight limits, CG envelope limits, etc.
  3. What is the price set at?
  4. It's close enough to BMQ. I know a guy looking there. Cheap fuel in BMQ also.
  5. Flight Service Specialist/ Flight Instructor/ Corporate Pilot
  6. I'm 6' 8" and I fly my ovation on 5 hour treks. For take off and landing, I'm seat in the first click from the back. I can sit there the whole time comfortable. I've got about 3-4 inches from hitting my head which is way more that a Bonanza or Baron. Good luck in your search.

    Top speed

    Www.groundspeedrecords.com Might want to add that one on there.
  8. I had to call but they had one for me in XL Black. Call the international number to get someone.
  9. Assuming this is the G1000 Skyhawk you're teaching in, here is a link to the pilots information manual. http://textron.vo.llnwd.net/o25/CES/cessna_aircraft_docs/single_engine/skyhawk/skyhawksp_pim.pdf
  10. What aircraft would you be teaching in? It's likely that there is the information manual on the plane in PDF format also. One more thing to save on the iPad.
  11. First off, do you own an iPad? It makes carrying publications easier. All of these are PDF and can be saved on the iPad. I'll help by giving the free options. Go to the faa website and get a few things. http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/ Start off with the Airplane Flying Handbook. That is a great FAA Publication with all the maneuvers listed in the PTS. The scenario based training that I personally provide is more based on what I create based on what might help the student most. Some words with senario based training that the FIRCs are usually talking highly of is FITS. You can also get that on the FAAs website for free. These are lesson plans in themselves, but are very long winded. http://www.faa.gov/training_testing/training/fits/training/generic/ Hopefully this is a good start for you. All this can be better answered with mentioning what specifically your first student is working on. There are other manuals to use for instrument ratings. Last but not least, here are the current PTS manuals for free. There have been lots of updates recently so read the new maneuvers. i.e. emergency descent is now a required item on the private pilot SEL ride. http://www.faa.gov/training_testing/testing/airmen/test_standards/pilot/ Enjoy
  12. I might know someone interested in the DC area. Is this still available?
