Apple is rumored to have a smaller, 7" iPad in the works to compete with the Kindle Fire which would make it more accomodating in the cockpit for a nav aid than the 11" version. (There may also be a touch- screen in development with realistic tactile feel from a company in Sweden). Anyone have an...

I've been daydreaming about flight computers... Not the ones we have now, but the next generation... I haven't seen any significant step changes in the functions the current generation provide... So I started day dreaming... and I came up with a wish-list, (now some of these are obviously...

I have a 2002 glasstop cobra and I have a lift strut (nitrogen spring?) that just failed on me. It is very difficult to lift the clamshell with even just one failed strut. Is there anyone in the US that might have these in stock? If anyone has replaced theirs with a US made strut I would also...
