Re: A2A Comanche 250

I hadn't heard that Ryan. Of course, I also thought the Bonanza was being done until the Comanche was revealed. Maybe their lineup has changed?

Re: A2A Comanche 250

I have to agree. The Comanche, while it looks nice, was a curious choice in my opinion. I was going to buy it, but decided not to. I personally would like to see A2A tackle a single engine turbine, like an early model TBM 850 or perhaps a Cessna 208 Caravan.

Re: This new FAA exam is disturbing....

How do you score a test that asks about personal and life experiences?

You know something is not right when 30+ year ATC veterans are secretly taking the test and failing.

Re: Anyone use the Razbam Metro III on PE lately?

Well, Keith, your suggestion worked, proving it was indeed a comm issue. Now, if I can figure out how to do this without entering it in the text box.

Anyone use the Razbam Metro III on PE lately?

I was hoping to fly the Metro on PE the other day, but could never get the Comms working, i.e. I dialed in the KBUR clearance frequency (118.00) and got nothing. I loaded up a different aircraft and comms worked fine. So, I went back to the Metro and same thing - nothing. I then noticed that my freq...
