Pretty sure they just park you where they are parking GAC when you arrive. In my past recent experience, a Sunday a.m. arrival has gotten me in the North 40, South of runway 9/27, i.e., near the Caravan.

Won't make the Caravan this year, but will be flying into Airventure with my daughter hopefully on Sunday morning and hoping to get parked in the North 40 somewhere near the Caravan. Fingers crossed.

"You"?

This is not what I expect a safety pilot to do, no matter how many initials they have after their name. Separate point: This has been a great thread!

Me too. And at that cruise setting I typically see true airspeed of 165 kts/hr.

Is there any benefit to the WAAS upgrade other than being able to shoot RNAV approaches when the ceiling is below 500 agl? Can't imagine it makes any meaningful difference for lateral guidance.

Speedbrakes deployed on their own in flight today. Was able to retract the first time. Then they deployed again and would not retract until I landed and turned off the master. Turned the master back on and then they functioned normally. We had a lot of rain last week. Could that have been the cause?

Thank you. Read them. Looks like the system has changed over time. Could not find an answer in these threads specific to the M20R 2006 Ovation.

Just got my 2006 Ovation back after the engine overhaul. The "check gear" warning is not working. POH says it should sound if the gear is up and throttle position is 1/4 inch from idle. My mechanic thinks it is also airspeed dependent. Pretty sure I used to hear it at any airspeed if I pulled throttle to idle. Anyone know whether it is airspeed dependent?

Haven't tried yet. But either that or through the door should work.

So far so good. Easy to put together, easy to use, easy to fold and unfold. Goes 17 mph, says it has a range of about 20 miles, climbs hills fine. I think it will be perfect for short hops from the plane.

Thanks. Definitely don't want them back if they are unusable. If the quote for an overhaul contemplates that the shop will get some value from these parts, that's fine; just didn't know if that is how it works.

Thank you. Yes, that may have been one of my mistakes. It may have been looking for my previous GTX, not the new one. Also, after pairing through my phone or tablet's settings, I think I need to connect through an app that is actually supported by the GTX. So, will forget and re-pair the devices, and will then try to connect through FLTplan Go, as Deb suggested. If that doesn't work I will just forget about it.

As part of my overhaul, the cylinders, magnetos and starter will be replaced. Should I expect the old parts to be returned to me for future use if needed? If so, do I specifically need to ask for this to happen or is that the ordinary course?

I interpreted the silence as a hearty endorsement for my provisional pick, the NIU KQi2 Pro. https://shop.niu.com/products/niu-electric-kick-scooter-kqi2-pro Will let you know how it turns out.
