    I have a question.. if when informing a tower of the no gear situation, could they ask you to go elsewhere?

    Great video, I never saw the mechanism in action.

    You don't like orange?

    In this case me, who was gainfully employed throughout it all and earned too much to get one of the three "stimulus" checks.

    I have read several articles about these programs and thus far the estimates are showing that well over $100 billion was doled out to fraudsters. The Washington Post had a story just today about the waste, fraud and abuse of the program and highlighted a guy who pleaded guilty to "taking" $4 million and spending it on a lavish lifestyle which included a fleet of high-end cars. Who would have thunk?

    All I can do is report on my and my aircraft owner friends experience. None of us have had to deal with serious corrosion issues. Your mileage may vary.
  7. flyboy0681
    All that dehumidifying equipment? I am based down in South Florida and have none of that and the plane has no corrosion to speak of. Even after the wing was removed for a major repair, no corrosion was found. I also know at least a dozen neighbors and not one of them has any kind of dehumidifying gear. I agree on the workbench and refridge however.

    Same situation, traffic does show up on the iPad. Like I said earlier, in my case the Connext button on the System menu is disabled when this occurs. There is no rhyme or reason.

    Just found out the antenna is a DMNI70-2.

    I won't be back at the hangar for a while to take a look but will respond when I do. If anything, it would be the one on the top of the picture because it does have four external screws.
  11. flyboy0681
    Yea, the reason I put out this post is due to the original no longer being manufactured and I don't want new holes made in the belly panel to accommodate a new one. Going with the same one, albeit used and years old, is probably the best approach.
  12. flyboy0681
    The connector on mine broke and I need a replacement. The underneath panel where it's mounted was used for other antennas over the years and is a patchwork of fillers and looks like Swiss cheese. It would be easier buying a used antenna of the same type instead of fitting a brand new one and I'm looking for someone that may have one lying around. This is for a 1993 J model and has four mounting screws on the outside of the unit. I already contacted Alan Fox and he doesn't have any.

    You could have a hangar, if the price is right.
  14. flyboy0681
    Same here. Sometimes I'd be flying along minding my own business in perfectly smooth air and it begins a very mild porpoise. When this occurs, which isn't very often, I disconnect the A/P and a few seconds later re-engage it, where it continues to fly smoothly. Weird.

    There is access behind the rear seat. As far as the Arrow IV's looks are concerned, I find it to be very sexy.

    I'm surprised the Sensorcon doesn't have Bluetooth capability at this point where a warning would come through a BT audio panel or headset.

    I was commenting on FlyingDude's post "Are there any lawyers here? Can we sue him in class action?"
  18. flyboy0681
    True, but how many in the GA community would be willing to contribute several thousand dollars to hire an attorney to pursue a class action suit against a boneheaded pilot looking for fame and fortune? And let's say for a minute that in seven years time it winds its way through the courts and he is found liable for damages of $10 million. Does anybody believe that he would have enough assets to pay off the class?
  19. flyboy0681
    Why anybody is giving this OP the time of day is beyond me.
  20. flyboy0681
    Even the flying offers are big in Texas.
  21. flyboy0681
    Mine is a 750 classic.
  22. flyboy0681
    Question is, did it contribute to the tragedy.
  23. flyboy0681
    That struck me as strange too.
  24. flyboy0681
    Baggage door opened?
  25. flyboy0681
    Any device. It's not a device connection, Connext itself doesn't start up. As I said, the Connext button is greyed out on the Systems menu.
