Re: Garmin DB Mgr does not work with MacOS Ventura

No issues for me earlier today updating from my MBP running Sonoma. Lucky! I'd forgotten about the trouble last time around.

Re: Bumped the tail :(

Sorry to report I had a very similar incident this afternoon. I DM'd Ian, but if anyone else could report ballpark repair cost and timeline, I'd also greatly appreciate it! Already feeling better that this might not be the end of the world, but it'd be good to know what roughly to expect will be inv...

PFD Inop

Hi all, My PFD recently refused to turn on; this was coupled with a wide variety of other errors that presented on the functioning MFD. Looking into it, the avionics shop on the field said one of the G1000 fuses (031303.2HXP, subject to replacement every couple years) had blown. They replaced that, ...

Re: Garmin DB Mgr does not work with MacOS Ventura

I noticed today that the not-compatible banner has been dropped from Garmin's website, and the system requirements now simply read OS 10.11 or higher. My DA40 is in extended annual right now, so can't verify soup to nuts that everything is working, but seems to be a good sign.

Re: First flight of the retractable DA50

Any idea if we’ll see an increase in max gross (and subsequently useful load) for the North American version? I recall the European specs seeming to be limited for tax reasons.

Re: Use cigarette lighter in flight for Arctic Air Cooler?

Does anyone regularly use the cigarette jack in flight? I was under the impression it was not for use outside of ground ops and so I haven't ever really touched it before.

Re: DA40 Paint Repair

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but figured here was more appropriate than on the flight school DA40 thread that spurred the question: does anyone have a recommendation for a detail shop that does good work bringing old paint back to a nice sheen? I'd be interested in getting a quote on a really prop...

Re: Some Great Flying

This is from over the top of KMCO the other night Wow, with their North/South runways they let you go overhead on a North/South direction. I've never been able to get overflight permission at MCO in any direction. It must still be pretty slow out there. Yeah, it was pretty boring airspace that even...
