Stetson20

Unfortunately, I won't make it- I have to work this weekend. Please add me to the future events list though! Thank you!

Ear foam inserts- tuck them in your shirt pocket for a bit. If they're tethered, tuck them down the front of your shirt & let your body heat warm them up a few minutes. I flew helo's in the Army and in the winter, we all stuck the helmet on our knee to warm them before putting them on. I fly with the Bose A20 for work. After a long flight, I do start to get hot spots. For the Mooney, I bought a couple Lightspeed Sierra ANR headsets. The Zulu's were too pricey for me. They work well. I haven't taken any really long rides in the Mooney yet. YMMV and that, plus a dollar (two? inflation!) will get you a cup of coffee...

I'm in if I'm not up to my ears in snow by then

I have a GNX 375 in my plane and the data card has expired on me more than once. I was thinking it would be convenient to have a 2nd data card, to keep in my flight bag, that I could update before heading to the airport. I looked online and they're not cheap. 150 bucks or so. BUT, I was wondering if Garmin would support two data cards. Anyone used this technique to keep their database(s) current? Thanks!

I'm seeing KBAK.. date/time? TIA

9D9 to 83D and back. Fall color tour.

SW Michigan 9D9, Gun Lake and local area

What size lots and how much they going for? Just curious...

Thanks! Just what I wanted to research.

Probably just my inexperience. Again, just musing.

… but is there better (more modern?) hardware than the traditional five position key starter (off - left - right - both - start)? I feel like I may snap the key off one of these days trying to start my engine. Any thoughts either way on it? I’m musing while on a working trip. Flying 737s but wanting to fly my Mooney!

Corn strike = FLOCK of birds strike!

Interesting thought. It's the rate of deceleration that kills you. Was the gear up or down? Maybe the mature corn stalks acted like a giant emas pad, in effect rapidly slowing the airplane in a safe deceleration regime. On the opposite side of the coin, those ears of corn could literally beat you to death if you lost your windshield and hit them at 90+ MPH. Random thoughts.

How about a black stripe thru their avatar? Sort of like the police do when a fellow officer has passed.

Looks like a Mooney. Happened yesterday. Pilot escaped without injury, I believe.

So I have everything EXCEPT this (seemingly VERY important) first page! I'm going to go through my paperwork and see if I have it. IF I don't, what would yall recommend? I see several FAA Supplemental Approval pages for various installed equipment (e.g. KNS 80, K150, etc.) but not the first page similar to the one posted above.

Ilya- will you be willing to share (in round numbers) the cost when it's done? TIA

PIREP when you've talked to the AF, please.

All I tossed from the original AFM was the back cover and spine. Do you have a pic of what you’re talking about? TIA

I'm interested too..

I didn't know what else to do so I bought a 3 ring binder from Office Depot. Not elegant, but functional. Used a lot of "paper @ssholes"

I will as soon as my plane is out of annual!
