Jerry
The towers you described are 2050 ft MSL. Big, tall, sticks protruding from the ground in places that are less than desired. The MSA for the LOC/DME approach is 2700 ft (3100 for the RNAV) so that gives us a 650 ft buffer. Not a lot of room for discrepancies. Better make sure the altimeter is set and the pilot is alert. These protruding creatures are found on the sectional at the 10 nm ring for DAY (Cox Intl.) at the southern portion just north of MGY, our base airport for the SOAPA fly-in. Big thanks to Jerry for scouting the FBO and facilities for us at Wright Brothers Airport (MGY). Stay tuned for more information on the 50th Anniversary of the Skymaster event.

Like This??
Jim,
You mean like this?? I was very fortunate to be able to tag along with Herb when he went to Dayton. Oh, and we had the "Glass Cockpit" in place, as we were cruising along, with a good tail wind. Another useful tool. I had my iPhone, Herb had his, and we both had iPads. In addition to all the technology that Herb has permanently attached to 2JF.

OK - You got me! Having read your reply, I went right out an got the flight instrument package. I'll have to see what it does in the airplane.
Have you purchased the foreflight upgrade? I haven't, but we ordered Jenny's iPad 2 on opening day and will probably put the advanced foreflight on hers... She always gets the good stuff :-)

Dear Sirs,
I am correct in understanding that there is now available a working EFIS style Attitude Indicator to program to run on the I-Pad/I-Phone? If so, please post a link as this is something that I have been hoping would become available. Back ups for back ups. Many thanks in advance. James T Grant 336-0145 N3845U
