Garmin 296 by
[email protected]
I've used a 295 for aviation purposes since it came out and a Street
Pilot III for auto trips.
Recently, issues developed with reestablishing the update chain for the
SP III road map software.
So, I decided to upgrade to a 296, which does "trains, planes, and
automobiles." (Actually, aviation,...

DUAT by
Stan Prevost
I used to use DUAT to file flight plans for VFR Flight Following and VFR On
Top. Not long ago, they changed their software. Now I can't get it to
accept an OTP flight plan. Haven't tried FF.
Example: Yesterday I filed an IFR plan having altitude field of 125/OTP.
It rejected it. It accepted...

Greg Farris
This is purely theoretical - it is not something I am planning for next

If you are to fly over an expanse of water or other inhospitible
terrain, for a distance long enough to require re-fueling immediately

Jeppesen FliteStar/FliteMap VFR JeppView and FliteDeck by
[email protected]
Hi. Recently I bought the new Jeppesen FliteStar VFR but
unfortunately it doesn't include Moving Map. It seems that they had
Moving Map in FliteMap and they had FliteDeck separately from the
JeppView package. They discontinued all that. I'm just VFR and plan
to remain in this category, so, I don't...

them on the internet.I would be interested in your reactions.

I got my IA on June 2nd. June 17th I took some friends up and I poked

Headsets and ANR by
Luke Scharf
I'm thinking about upgrading my Sigtronics S-20 headset. Right now, I'm
considering the Lightspeed QFR SOLOc and Lightspeed QFR XCc (with ANR).
I like the price of the passive headset and I also like that it has a
pretty high amount of muffling (28.7 db according to the selasfolk).
But, if the...

MOA?? by
Mitty
I have to try to KBCK next week for a funeral. It is inside a MOA.
Filing IFR seems safer than going in VFR, but if I file and the MOA is hot, what
is ATC going to do?
