    That has to be a record Ivor! I got 10 years out of my old Garmin 90 (Aviation GPS), which had the same internal battery issue. It may depend on the complexity of tracks and waypoints stored - mine used to be jammed to capacity. These days the internal memory seems to be hardwired.

    What wax are builders liking on their airplanes? I keep mine hangared but the hangars are full of spiders and it RAINS spider crap in them. It will wash off with soap and water, but I should probably protect the finish. Jim Puglise A283

    Subject: can one use 'glass' micro for filler??
    Hello wonderful list, I just purchased 5 lbs of glass micro to be used for filling movable wing surfaces. Having made some ding resistance and sanding tests with differing resin amounts, and to prove it is sandable (at least half as sandable, timewise, as superfil...depending on amount of resin added) , I see that the manual suggests to use thermoplastic spheres instead of the glass ones. My favorite aircraft mail supply shop does not seem to carry them. So I ask...what is wrong with using standard Aeropoxy and glass micro? I have no experience in filling surfaces so far, so any help is appreciated. Regards, Greg Fuchs

    I think the answer may be weight. The glass version being heavier than the thermoplastic.

    I seem to remember that Europa also said the thermoplastic filler is easier to sand than the glass microspheres (providing you get the mix right).
