  1. Hmm, that's about when I find it most useful. Georeferenced approach plates are awesome. I find smart charts to be okay, bit more useful for arrival and departure procedures. Nothing wrong with them but the standard approach plate has everything on one screen.
  2. I have these also, really liked them. these are what i used before i upgraded to the zulus. nothing really wrong with them, just started to be a bit worn
  3. My Zulus are GREAT passive, as in there are times i've forgotten to turn them on
  4. love my lightspeeds, i have hte 20xl, sierras and the zulus, all are excellent. 20xls i bought new something like 16 years ago, they still sound awesome. sierras i purchased as a passenger headset but i wear them as often as i wear my zulus zulus, awesome, work just as good passive as they do turned on, quiet, most important they don't clamp my head.
  5. that's what they are doing
  6. works great in my pma 8000g, really easy to listen to multiple conversations
  7. welp, got the dreaded, drawings don't mach call today, darn stringer for the step is in the way of the bracket for the pitch servo. shop sent a message to Bendix King and Duncan, within 30 minutes they had what they needed to continue, might actually get the plane back, one day. Thank you Chris Gress @ duncan
  8. yeah, i hope to never use a paper plate again, ever. my problem, garmin doesn't supply nav data for the gns480, only source is jepp. if they've stopped the discount on gp, there's no reason i shouldn't go back to jepp and get databases for everything @ approx the same price
  9. is this true? if so, i can switch to jepp and get databases for both the 355 and 480 and come out close to the same as i'm paying garmin for the 355
  10. CSV's can be tough, extra spaces, incorrect field delimiters, line delimiters, field order, blah blah blah, it's NOT easy. if i remember correctly ff and garmin both let you pick the fields to export, meaning you may have something which looks nothing like what's expected. it's not trivial. Best i can usually do, give the user a specification and say do this or pay me to import it for you. Thinking, if you gave up after 30mins due to some understandable CSV import issue, you had probably already decided GP wasn't for you
  11. i'm not understanding, your problem was not correctly formatting a csv ?
  12. mines in the shop having this installed, anyone have stories to tell to help me bide my time?
  13. same, esp if it includes tint. Doesn't seem to matter where or what direction, the sun is always directly on me.
  14. plexi also blocks most uv. purchased a pair prescription Aviator eye glasses with those nice transition lenses, figured they'd be great for flying except they would never darken in the plane. outside, immediate -- great, inside, nada. eye doctor explained it's the windows blocking the uv and also he wasn't gonna give me my money back
  15. I could be wrong but if the windows are made of polycarbonate, the material naturally blocks most UV.
  16. she's in she's in the shop now,no idea when she'll be ready, hopefully soon
  17. at what temps do we need this winterization kit, at some point i'm gonna fly where it's cold.
  18. lost the field wire once, everything in birdy is now LED so probably the heaviest thing running , gns480 and a kx170b. dropped the gear as soon as i noticed, landed about 45 mins later, uneventful. oh yeah, pulled out the handheld just in case. if it were an option, i'd probably install an earthx battery as backup just to guarantee more electrons than fuel
  19. I have this, super tiny but amazingly bright Aveo Redbaron XP Galactica LED Anticollision - Certified | Aircraft Spruce ®
  20. mine works great when the boots are healthy. I wonder why more companies didn't adopt those vac servos, whole system can be maintained for a few hundred bucks instead of thousands per servo
  21. I currently have a tail strobe, want to keep it the same. want to be able to out blast those cirrus drivers
  22. thinking i'll need a pair and a 500 tail in feb for my annual, my wing strobes have started acting up.
  23. what's the difference between the 650's and 660's?
