  4. Brian, indeed I picked up the plane did my BFR and flew with an instructor from D.C. to Guatemala. Oscar Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. 4 years while I was posted to Bolivia Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. I use the iIpad mini, mainly because of its size. I have it mounted on the yoke. The iPad Pro would be too large. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. I understand, yeah our planes are great...they are very stable and behave as they are supposed to. I am always surprised when I fly with a Cessna or Bo driver and how much they have to work to achieve a nice landing. On our side, if you keep the speeds in line, a nice landing is mostly assured. But of course the speed management is not always that easy...
  8. Stand to be corrected, today I landed at leesburg executive in VA on RWY 17, wind 260 at 20 gust 25. Landed after one go around. One wheel touchdown... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Jajaja! I stopped using GoPros after losing some (over the Guatemalan rain forest... so no harm done (I hope so...) Now I am using Virbs... but they are still mostly outside... Oscar Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  16. Unless you have a digital sender, fuel quantities are not very precise. But if you cross check with used fuel it gives you a good sense of how much is left. Oscar Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Secret or not, is there space for a current washingtonian secret flier tomorrow? I would love to join you guys! Where on the field? Oscar Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  19. they should fit, otherwise there is a company in Alaska that can provide you with a full new doghouse.
  20. Yes, much more detailed! To add to the discussion, in the POH in the preflight section it states that the first step in the preflight is to sump the tanks for 5 seconds right and then 5 seconds left. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  22. Welcome to the club! There are several threads on this issue. What surprises me is that your #2 CHT is the hottest one. Normally #3 is the one that is acting up. I personally did everything I could to keep the CHTs low, I was able to reduce them a bit, but I know that I have to manage them to keep them in line around 380 to 400.

  23. Bob, Please how can I get on that list? I really would like to participate this year. Oscar
  24. I would also not do it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
