    Nice prose Selwyn. Your style reminds me of some of the stories in a book I'm reading "The Greatest Flying Stories Ever Told" edited by Lamar Underwood, which includes some very personal stuff by Lindbergh on his trans-Atlantic crossing and 18 other short pieces, some fictional, some factual, but all written by pilots. Maybe you should become AsiaPac's correspondent for Hangar Talk! Cheers, Paul Smith, Angaston, South Australia.

    First off, thanks for the responses and prompt welcome! It's nice to know there are folks checking the board regularly. Linda: Thanks for the info on the IFR issue. As for the VOR, someone I spoke to (Pete @ Arion??) mentioned the FAA recently changed the wording of the IFR requirements section to remove the reference to "ground stations". This seems to indicate that they were giving a nod to the capabilities of GPS. That said, I plan to go with a GNS 430 hooked up to my EFIS, so I'll have the benefit of both. Now to figure out what to use as a backup if the GPS goes poof.... I am in Jacksonville, FL for about another month completing my SH-60B refresher syllabus. After that, I head back to sunny San Diego, CA. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=325987#325987

    Hi Case, Came back from Miami last night, so have a look at your schedule and we'll go flying. The book did indeed change from "ground facilities to be used" to "equipment appropriate for the proposed route" two years ago, but, as discussed, in order to file as /G you need a certified GPS - 430 in your example. As a suggestion, make an allowance for a 3G iPad with ForeFlight software in your budget - that thing rocks as an EFB either VFR or IFR.

    Hey Case: I have to agree with your decision on airplanes. I have owned 6 Bonanzas as the primary way for my family to see everyone while on leave (I flew SH-3's). I am sure San Diego has changed a lot since I was last stationed there. I live in Frostproof FL, and plan to be at Sebring so hope to meet you. If Max does not complete your ride before then (and even if he does) lets plan to go aviating while you are in Sebring.

    Welcome aboard Chase, We need some more Navy to counter Buz's AF swagger. Earl Ferguson Capt USNR (Ret) VP/VS pilot In a message dated 1/7/2011 10:10:55 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, casegarrison@att.net writes: Hello to all, I have been lurking around the Lightning List as well as the Lightning websites (Arion's own and Max and Olena's) and finally got around to signing up. I am a NAVY Helicopter pilot by training (It's OK Buz, some of my best friends are Air Force), but I also enjoy fixed wing flying. I recently got some refresher training in Pipers, and remembered how disappointing the rental fleet frequently is. That led me to start looking at buying. Unfortunately, as you all know, you can't buy much in the certified world for less than the cost of a very nice new home. Enter homebuilts into my scan.
