Apollo GPS
Sorry, Francisco! I just realized they may have made a model 2001. I thought you were referring to year number. I'm not familiar with that particular unit.

Apollo GPS
They make several models. Which one did you buy, Francisco? I think they go by model number, not year number. Portable or panel mount? (the model number will tell me if you know it.)

The dipstick method may work on the...

Wayne - you mention 400 "series" autopilots. There is the straight 400; the 400A and the 400B. They are not alike even though numbered the same. I have a 400A in a 1976 337G and when you engage the...

Fly hi - normally aspirated
I fly from MEM to EGE (Eagle, CO) on a fairly regular basis in a 1976 337G. First of all, you didn't mention oxygen. For absolutely sure buy a good portable kit. I have a precise flight bottle with...

Fixing the legs
Does anyone know a 337 with the gear permanently fixed and all the junk involved in the up/down train removed? Somehow, I got the impressiion that the FAA frowns greatly on this and no one has ever...

It looks like they left the taxiway intact so locals can get out. It'll be interesting what happens when the "alphabets" get busy - AOPA, NBAA, EAA, NATA, GAMA, etc!
