You can be heard by Center when you transmit, but you can't hear them (nor do VHF NAV's work) due to the buzzing of the p-static. Don't know if GPS is affected. (Haven't flown IFR since getting a hand held GPS.) I ended up putting a bonding wire on the rudder pedals and stick to ground them to the engine. We kept getting shocked touching the throttle when flying in charging conditions. (Even flying in virga here in Arizona.) Mike Palmer <>< Subject: Re: Glasair-List: For your viewing enjoyment From: Tom Goddard Sounds like perfect conditions for p static in a Glasair. Obviously unrelated to the canopy issue though. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:32:38 AM PST US Subject: Re: Glasair-List: Re: P-static From: Dick Gossen I used to get shocked.....and rudely! I'm only 5'7", so my seat cushion places me 'close to the stick', you might say. After a couple jolts to my privates, I learned not to fly in virga or dry snow. :) Sent from my iPad.
