I don't know the future. I just can't decide the future. By this time,
I am very well aware that my every action, every thought, all the
feelings have already been decided. I don't have any "self".
Rama, I don't know whether this flying arrow will reach to...

Criminal incompetence at the FAA by
No Such User
Whoever made this purchase should be in jail:
http://software.silicon.com/applications/0,39024653,39124122,00.htm
It's shameful that they would trust people's lives to a computer
system that had to be "reset every thirty days" just to keep from
crashing.

West Mifflin, PA? (Pittsburg area) by
Tina Marie
I'm going to a gathering in Pittsburg, at:
Comfort Inn Pitsburgh EAST
699 Rodi Road
Pittsburgh Pa.
The woman at the hotel said the closest airport was 30 mins away, in
West Mifflin, PA. No amount of web searching will turn up an identifier
for it, and I'm not familiar with the area.

The bottom line is that Boeing as we've known it for 88 years is no

Garmin 430 VOR reception by
Maik
Hi!
I have a SL30 and a GNS 430 in my plane. They use the same antenna via a
splitter.
When I dial in the same VOR in both units the SL30 catches up the
radials always between 20 and 50 nautical miles earlier than the GNS
430! (Altitude about 3000 ft, flat area)
Is this normal?

3-monitor cards can be had more easily than you think.
Who said anything about "new".
There are many second-hand locations, including Ebay, where you can get a good deal
on a pretty decent 3-monitor card.
