  1. Also this https://www.avweb.com/multimedia/votw/miami-accident-dont-be-fearful-of-ditching/
  2. When I did my RPL flight reveiw, it was all on the Tablet. Only requirement was I had a backup - another tablet or paper charts.
  3. Nice Mike, although it looks very steep up hill at the end 😁 We overflew your place last saturday morning.
  4. Our Sportstar is regitered as a Factory built LSA, which get 23 rego. When converting it from VH to RAA we were told that as an LSA, it could not be run on condition, as it must be maintained as per the manufacturers book. Only way around it would be to convert to E23 rego.
  5. 😁 Other owner is on this forum! Back on topic - Overall, happy with the headset for the price.
  6. Thanks, we got a Garmin SL60 Nav/Com as the Radio with a PS Eng PM 1000 Intercom. I've looked up the manual for the SL60 and can see how to change the Side Tone and Headset Volume from the settings. Will that affect the passenger volume though? If this is the only was to improve the volume, I can do that, but would have to change it and revert back to original settings every flight as the plane has 2 owners, and it seems to be only this headset that needs the adjustment.
  7. Thanks for the reply, but I'm going to need more help/information, Side tone isn't something i've heard of, so not sure what needs adjusting. External transmissions come through loud and clear, Passenger comms come through loud and clear, it's only my own transmission that come through with low volume when using this particular headset.
  8. I bought one. I like buying stiff from Clear Prop where I can, as it supports this forum. Overall, works well, ANR works, Bluetooth works easily (when you read the instructions 🙃 , which are basic anyway, but do read them) Is it as good as the popular more expensive brands - no idea, I haven't tried them. Is it better that my DC H10-13.4 or my Clarity Aloft with BT set I've been using? Overall yes. The only minor issue I've had is that the volume that comes through when I speak seems low. I can hear other transmissions/passenger fine, just when I speak, the volume seems low. But I generally have some idea of what I'm saying (well, I hope so), so not really that much of a problem.
  9. I would, but I'd plan to keep each leg less than 150 minutes each, with at least a 30 minute break on the ground (refuel plane and self etc). So, you're looking at 8.5hrs minimum. I've done 3.5hr legs and I really need a stop by then, but that is with a passenger to keep me entertained. I couldn't imagine doing 3.5hrs and then trying to do it again on my own.
  10. I can recommend Lilydale. I did my RAAus RPC and Nav endorsement there in their Jabiru 160s - they have switched to Vixxens now. I also did my RPL conversion there last year. I've flown with 7 of their instuctors and they have all been great. If you're happy just bashing around locally by yourself, go the RAAus RPC route and save some money. You can always do the RPL conversion later. But if you definately want the extra seats, you may as well go straight to the RPL now.
  11. My understanding, without reading the Trig manual is you need to connect the Trig to a GPS source before it can broadcast out. I'd assume there is something in the setup settings to tell it to broadcast once it has recognised a GPS input.
  12. My limited understanding of this is; 1090ES is a US Standard for ADSB The Trig TT-22 meets the Standard. You'll need to connect a compatible GPS source to the Trig and an ADSB antenna for it to broadcast ADSB out. AQ_ADS-B_DEC16.pdf
  13. You're not missing anything, He's just doing what he normally does.
  14. Stop wasting peoples time.
