Hello community, after downloading several *.pdf's from the Chelton side (being inspired by AOPA's Commander ;-) and browsing thru them, it seems that there are some features in this box that set it apart from the competition, e.g. terrain display, "higway-in-the-sky" pointers, etc. Are there any...

I seem to remember live lightning maps being available, similar to radar maps but showing lightning strikes. However I can't find them. It seems they would be quite useful for preflight, and as an onboard weather too. Anybody know where these are (or if I'm just misremembering?) Jose -- The...

I would like to make my 1960 Cessna 172A IFR. Currently, I have only venturi vacuum. My A & P stated that as there is no STC for a vacuum pump intall, I need a form 337 field approval...I think it is form 337, I could be wrong on that. Does anyone have information relating to STC's and field...

I bought a kln 89b. I have a MK12d driving a ID-824, a KX-170 driving a KI-214, and a yellow taged Arc IN-385a sitting on the self. I have a NAT multi pole relay, annunicator lights and switches. First choice would be to share the ID-824 between the MK12d and the 89b? If none of these will work,...

Are you familiar with Skew-T diagrams? They show a continual track of temperature and dewpoint versus altitude as reflected by the RAOB balloon. Might be better than depending on rules of thumb. Just Google Skew-T and you will get plenty of links. Bob Gardner "Peter" wrote...

By googling, I've found that the ELITE flight simulator was working on a simulator for the Bendix/King KLN 94 GPS, but I can't find any additional information on this. Does anyone know if they've got this finished? Is it included in the current 8.0 version being sold? Thanks,
