Registering foreign planes in US by
Eclipsme
What is required to get an 'N' number for a foreign (to the US) registered
plane? Does sit matter where the plane is currently registered? Does the
plane have to be in the US currently?
Thanks,
Harvey

Lightspeed with Foggles question by
Rod Madsen
I just bought the Hood Lamb and had to send them back. They simply would
not clamp to my David Clark H10-13.4 which have a narrower than usual band.
To their credit, they acknowledge this problem with DC's and suggest
friction tape to increase the girth of the band. Didn't work...to

Infrequent flying & IFR currency by
Marty Ross
"Infrequent flying & IFR currency" - sounds like an oxymoron, I know.
I'm limiting my flying now due to lack of income (anyone have work for a
software developer?), yet would like to try to maintain my (recently
acquired) IFR currency.
I guess my best bet is to beg/borrow/steal/hire a safety...

Stolen Cessna 182 N2504R by
Teacherjh
Giving us an N-number and color isn't worth snot. By now
that plane has a new N-number and different paint.
Actually, many years ago (before I was there) our flying club had a plane
stolen. The club keeps credit cards for gas in the plane, and the theif used
the cards to buy gas. We could...

Good Source For PIREPS? by
Phoenix Pilot
Anyone out there have any good web sources for up-to-date, textual
PIREPS? Multiple ones over a wide area would be a plus.
The only solid way I've found to get them is to log on to DUATS and do
a flight plan around the area I'm wanting to get PIREPs for. This is
time consuming, and I know theres...

Avionics ? by
Hankal
VOR frequency 108.6 on flip flop.
On one of my KX 155 I tried to put in 108.6. It would not show as such.
It was something like 109.0 then when I flipped it to the left is showed as
108.6.
Strange and very confusing since I was setting up for the VOR approach.

Looks like XMradio weather is hitting the streets.. by
Anonymous
Anyone looked at http://www.airgator.com/ ? Looks like one of the
first portable WX systems based on XMradio broadcast technology.

I don't suppose anyone has used this and could offer feedback? I wish
AnywhereMap would change from the GlobalStar phones to this
technology....

Garmin 430/530 Questions by
Steve Coleman
Can you program in a radial off of a VOR to use as a GPS course?
For example, say your cleared from your present position to intercept a
given radial inbound. Up to this point you've been flying direct, or flying
a set of GPS waypoints. You're navigating off of GPS, not VOR. When this
happens...
