Transport Canada requires an extensive re-certification effort every time new software is released

Cirrus, Cessna and Piper type certifications are governed by the FAA, which of late has changed the rules for avionics in general for the better.

A guy over on Pilots of America did a test of a 50/50 mix of Avgas and Jet-A. While the test suggests it will be difficult to tell if you have Jet-A in your Avgas, perhaps the opposite may be true for Avgas in your Jet-A.

I decided against it for now. Thanks, however, Rich for taking the lead on working out the bugs!

Rich- Thanks, I'll try those tests. Re still using the Stratus, I have a Garmin GDL-88 that will be providing input. Unfortunately, the FF Q&A section says "Pilots with a Flight Stream 210 and a Garmin ADS-B In source, or a Garmin GTX345 ADS-B In transponder, should not simultaneously conne...

Rich- Any tips on what to test once it's installed? Mine was finished today, but I'm waiting on a mag change from my annual so it will probably be next week before I get the plane back.

My DA40 has had a hotter #1 cylinder (anywhere from 10-30 degrees from the next hottest) for years. I recently put on a new #1 cylinder and the problem, if anything, gotten worse. (The new cylinder has 45 hours on it and the temp is 20-30 degrees hotter than the next hottest cylinder across a range ...

Rich, thanks. One thought on the CHTs is to install it without the advance timing, which I believe is the source of the moderately (10 degree) CHT rise reported by some. Bernie

Rich, Brian, Steven - Are you still happy with your Surefly ignitions? My right mag has gone bad (after less than 200 hours) so I'm considering adding a Surefly. Like Rich I have the VM1000 so as I understand it I have to switch the RPM sensor from the right to the left mag. Rich, I know you ended u...

Neema- Thanks for the heads up on the vertical cross section chart in FF. I didn't realize that you can access that if you change your briefing format to graphical (PDF) (vice graphical (HTML).

Wayne- Nice video and interesting ideas. In my steam-gauge DA40 I have my Ipad Air 3rd gen on my right leg with clips. Tried Mini, just too small, especially for looking at Nexrad Radar, plus anywhere I put it with suction cups it seemed either in the way and/or vibrated too much. When I put it wher...
