Where can I find approach and departure charts for rural airports in the Sierra Madre mountains that surround Puerto Vallarta, Mexico? I realize many of these mountain airports are little more than a dirt road next to a farm and do not have published instrument approaches, but I would still like...

I recently made an inquiry to Garmin regarding their new requirement that GNS 430/530 owners pre-order the WAAS upgrade prior to November 2005 to guarantee the $1500 price their marketing department has been stating for the past 2 years... Keeping in mind the WAAS upgrade for these boxes are...

There are 29 listings for transponders for sale on Ebay in the US.. in the ebay motors:parts and accessories:aviation parts section. I was just perusing the site yesterday looking at what was for...

A couple weeks ago I started a thread inquiring about the various PDA/tablet moving-map/satellite weather packages available. After a lot of deliberation I ended up buying ControlVision's Anywhere WX/Anywhere Map system and an iPaq 4705 PDA. I used the system for the first time this evening and...

According to an article in the November 2004 edition of Scientific American, the GPS satellites' clocks have a 7 microsec per day effect due to relativistic motion and a 45 microsec per day effect due to the lower gravity in orbit. The two effects partially cancel, so the net adjustment is 38...

Anybody know of a PC flight simulator that has full flight controls combined with a GNS-430 or 530? I have Garmin's 430 simulator without flight controls, and On Top with controls and a 1990 GPS unit that doesn't have approach fixes in the database. It'd be nice to have both in one package.

Hello to all, Just moved to the states and need to get the IFR test to be able to qualify for a conversion of my license. I was wondering if anybody just finish his/her and would like to sell me a copy of the king course on DVD computer Thanks

I decided awhile ago I'd like to get a PDA (preferred) or perhaps a small tablet for in-cockpit GPS moving map and satellite weather and a backup, emergency-only AI as well (not a simple GPS AI but a real solid-state gyro). After days of research I can't seem to find a single system that...

Those PDFs are driven by the "TEXT" tab in JeppView. Click on the "TEXT" tab and you will be led to a series of pages that are similar to the NOTAM pages in a Jeppesen paper subscription wrote: As far as I can tell this is part of Flitedeck or Jeppview version 3 or...

I just brought my plane back from annual. Apparently the shop forgot to put the transponder antenna back on. I was impressed with how easy ATC made flying IFR w/o the transponder. They did not require me to give the full non-radar reports. They just asked me to verify my altitude and report certain...

I am a Flitestar user and I recently wanted to upgrade to Flitemap IFR. To my shock, Jeppesen appears to no longer sell Flitemap. Why would they stop selling their only moving map product? -- Will Internet: westes at earthbroadcast.com

According to Garmin's product literature, the GNS 430 and 530 are "WAAS-upgradeable", yet there is no information as to when this upgrade might be available. Does anyone have any other information on this? -- Dane
