This may sound silly, and i apologize if it is, but did you enter the approach into the g1000 with all the fixes? I have at times forgotten to put in the approach.

That's the same fuel burn as the Cirrus jet, Cary. But I think you are climbing faster. (Although JetA is quite a bit cheaper than 110LL.) I do miss the efficiency of the DA42. While it was not as fast in the climb or at cruise, burning on 11.2 gph in cruise with the DA42 was much better than my cu...

My Bonanza is fast enough for me. I'm still trying to learn to fly this plane. While it climbs >1000 fpm up to maximum altitude, it burns 36+ gph in the climb!

Tommy? Toooomy? Guess what happens. I met 2 new friends and we are flying around in an Aerostar 700P. I even got to hand fly it for a bit. Wow. This is serious turbine performance. We climbed out of Geneva at 165 KIAS and 1'500 fpm! The aircraft is incredibly complex, but it is truly a wonderful fl...

FWIW, I have been flying with my Quiet Technology headset for more than 6 years ( https://www.quiettechnologies.com/ ). I used them in my DA42, in a Cirrus SR20 and SR22, in a C310, and now am using them in my Bonanza. I really love this headset and have relegated by Bose ANR set to the right seat p...

This is what I got almost 10 years ago upon selling my 2003 DA40. This is a Mooney M20K rocket. I got a new paint job almost a year ago, and new leather interior - and also a new prop about 3 years ago. They say Mooneys are hard to land, and like to float and porpoise and all that, and perhaps its ...

Join Beechtalk. Really. That is a gorgeous plane. I loved the G36 I did a demo flight in. (Later the same plane crashed out of KHHR doing a demo flight, no idea if it was the same salesman.) So solid. Really an unbelievable difference between it and the Piper Warriors I was training in. My boys lov...

It looks like I will have to change my info. I bit the bullet and paid way too much for this plane, but it is now mine. It is old (like me) but flies well. The turbonormalized IO-550 engine let the plane fly at 187 KTAS at 10,000 feet on a hot summer day in Houston. Here is one picture of this plane...

I have a fingertip sensor with AAA batteries. I just got an $85 watch unit on Amazon that seems pretty clever. Only used it on one flight so far, but it was slick. Colin, Thanks for the info. I have been wanting to write an app for the Apple Watch to use as a pulse oximeter, since it is known to ha...

I think you are probably on to something, but I really like hard data as well. I think I'm going to start measuring my O2 saturation at lower altitudes. It is generally recommended to use O2 whenever one's sats are <90%. However, heart rate goes up even when sats are in the lower 90's and the incre...
