Re: ATC in-air "discussion"
What would it take to "fix" the problem and how much does it cost?

Re: DA40NG Coolant Leak and ECU A Failure
I feel for you guys with the Lycomings probably more than you do for us Austro operators. Lycoming IO360s fail inflight at a predictable rate of once every 1,100 hours or so (see https://www.avweb.com/flight-safety/accidents-ntsb/why-engines-quit-failures-are-avoidable/ . out %6 of what it might co...

Re: Quebec City Recommendations
I've also been wanting to fly to Quebec City before it freezes over again for the winter. I've got my customs sticker, my radio license, and I'm just looking for the right weekend. Would love any recommendations as well. Where did you see the negative comments at YQB? Foreflight though admittedly m...

Re: Quebec City Recommendations
Please share if you don't mind.
My wife really wants to fly to Quebec City but the comments from YQB are discouraging. We are also looking at Halifax and PEI.

Re: Alternator slow to wake up
My mechanic talked me out of replacing the voltage regulator. Says they will usually either work or not work. FWIW I haven't seen the same behavior although I did get my alternator rebuilt (prematurely) during the final troubleshooting. They didn't see anything unusual with it. My idle RPM seems low...

Re: DA62 First Ever RAAC Retrofit
My Best Tug is more than 4 years old; it's a B9 model. Thanks. I will consider but I really want something I can just plug in and chill the cabin while I get everything set up. Flying out of South Florida and it's REALLY hot. When I was in college I worked the line for a charter company with 4 King...

KAP-140 Drop-in Replacement for DA40
I remember a post earlier this year where somebody mentioned a rumor of an upcoming drop-in replacement for the KAP-140. For the life of me I can't find the post. I would like to talk with the person or anybody who has heard something similar from a credible source.

Re: Now available for ordering and shipment: Powered Headset Adapter for Diamond Aircraft
OK here's an odd one. I got to the airport and discovered my Bose A20 headset does not have the 6-pin LEMO plug tho I was 100% sure I bought it that way. Came home and checked my original order with Bose and confirmed it. Somewhere in the past 8 years I swapped headsets with someone and got a stand...
