$100 Hamburgers in Maine by Patrick
Hi folks, We're headed up to Bangor and Bar Harbor to cool down for a vacation next week and I was thinking about renting an airplane for a day or two and touring part of the state. Any thoughts on neat destinations in the area? Also, I wonder if any FBOs or clubs rent Bonanzas up there? All...

Could you share a GPS? by Paul Tomblin
David Megginson and I were discussing the avionics the other day, and we had a very strange thought. We know that radios can be pulled out and swapped, usually with a single screw. Would it be possible to buy a single approach certified GPS, like a Garmin 530 or something, and put trays in...

Identifying an intersection with options by Ben Jackson
The HIO ILS 22 has a hold at COUVE which is defined by the intersection of three things: the UBG 232, BTG 242 and the LOC. It's also the UBG 232 @ 21.7 DME. I was flying this in FS2002 in the 182RG, which only has 1 CDI on the panel, but it does have a DME you can remote to the second (invisible,...

GPS-Y GPS-Z database question by John Clonts
KIWS (West Houston) has a GPS (RNAV) Y RWY 33 as well as a GPS(RNAV) Z RWY 33. My KLN-94 only shows one of them. Is there a way to tell which one it is, without just a "mechanical" inspection of all the waypoints, bearings, etc? Is this a limitation of the KLN-94, or a limitation of the...

"Best forward speed" approaches by Ben Jackson
A few questions about fast (by spamcan standards) approaches in busy terminal environments: 1) Is there any point in practicing any "best forward speed" approaches besides the ILS? 2) How fast is fast enough? Obviously 120kts is better than 90kts (maybe 1.5m less time after you turn onto the...

ADF vs. StormScope antenna by David Megginson
I'm curious about the technical differences between the antenna for a StormScope or StrikeFinder and the antenna for an ADF. Are they essentially the same thing, with different connectors? Thanks, and all the best, David
