I know this has been discussed here before but I'm still not able to connect my Garmin III Pilot to the Jeppesen FliteStar program I have on my laptop. The problem of course is the serial-USB adapter which I have to use since modern laptops do not have old style serial connections anymore. If...

Garmin 430, weak Loc/VOR by Greg Esres
A student recently installed a Garmin 430. It will not pick up a nearby VOR on the ground, while his old 170B will. The needle comes alive just after liftoff, but it does seem to have a lot of course roughness. His localizer also exhibits a lot of course roughness when far out on the localizer,...

MX 20 -another faulty display by [email protected]
2 years ago we were forced to replace (for $600) our MX20 display because it had vertical lines. At the time, we were led to believe these were "growing pains" and that what is now Garmin AT had re-designed the MX20 box so display failures would be less common. The new displays even came with an 18...

On the most recent Pilots Audio Update, the narrator was talking about a time when fog covered half the airport, but he could see the runway he was going to land on, but because the control tower was on the foggy half of the airport, they wouldn't approve a visual approach. He was being vectored...
