Flying with my Amazon Kindle.

I noticed most pilots climbing out of their planes wearing bathing suits and carrying towels. Seems many pilots frequent this place for an afternoon soak in the hot springs flying home a few hours later.

  • Hi Frank, New subscriber. Great Videos of Socal.

    I noted you have a GNS 430. Is it WAAS? Ifnot, then how do you have the audio alert turned on. Ive had mine 9 months now and Im still scratching my head.

    thx.

  • @92fsoakcreek The audio alerts come from the Garmin 396

  • @fholbert thanks!. Do you think a 696 would also?

    BTW. I have a new appreciation for Socal approach and flying Socal in general as a result of these vids. working on my Inst. Rating now, so this opens up a lot of nice places down there. We're up near Kings Canyon/ based at O32 Reedley.

  • @92fsoakcreek Yes the 496 and 696 does this also.

    No one has the destinations we enjoy in the SW USA.

  • Take a look at the new iPad.. I have not pulled out a paper IAP since buying my iPad. Many benefits - has wifi, so I can walk into an FBO, save the latest weather, file flight plans, etc. - and night IFR is easier since the iPad is LCD and backlit unlike the Kindle (as far as I know). BTW: Great Videos!!

  • @llenrayb The problem is I almost always fly above 10,000' which is the limit of the iPad.

  • It's always a pleasure to watch your videos. They are well made and educational also. Keep up the good work.

  • Well, damn, I spend $150 for a yearly subscription to Jeppesen Airway Manual Express just last week... and then I find this video. LOL. I think the Kindle's ability to display still graphics without using any battery plus sunlight readability makes it the perfect chart bag. Maybe I will donate my Jepp subscription to some poor student.

  • @anush10 Yes, a Century II with altitude hold.
