Folks,
I get monthly Jeppesen updates for my GX60 and MX20 GPS map displays. Am I

logbook? If so, What would the entr look like?
Thanks,

Ralph, I also have a GX60 & MX20 but have not updated them for over 2 years.
When I last checked the cost was pretty high, is this better now?

Tim,
The cost is still astronomical! The only reason I'm doing it is I'm
planning to get my IFR training and ticket in my 6A.
If you decide to start updating them on a regular basis, the first thing
you'll need is a new 4MB flash card for the GX60 - don't get it from
Garmin - they want a mint.....I'll dig out where I got mine and post it
here.

Thanks Ralph,
I may just buy a one time update soon to get it caught back up. I am
definitely going to replace the card since I am having some reboot problems
and have heard it could be related to the card size. Also I would love to
find someone local that knows how to work the GX60 for IFR so I could get
some hands on. We got left behind for purchasing GPS training software for
the GX series. How did you figure this all out?

Gary,
Did you have to format the card or was it useable the way you
received it?

Hi Gary,
I had heard some had problems with the 4MB card size. Has this worked OK
for you rather than upgrading to an 8MB card.
Thanks

I do believe you need to have an input in your log book for the GPS update to be
IFR legal, like Ralph mentions, but I do not know the exact wording.
Also, Garmin had a GX simulator on their website at one time. I do not know if
it is still there or not, but I do have a copy I could send out when I return
home next week if it is no longer there. It is not a training device (it will
not teach you how to use it) but it does allow you to play with the different
screens and stuff from your computer.
Merry Christmas to all!!

Thanks Ralph,
I may just buy a one time update soon to get it caught back up. I am
definitely going to replace the card since I am having some reboot problems
and have heard it could be related to the card size. Also I would love to
find someone local that knows how to work the GX60 for IFR so I could get
some hands on. We got left behind for purchasing GPS training software for
the GX series. How did you figure this all out?

Hmmm. the Jeppesen site shows 2MB, 4MB, or 8MB PCMCIA memory card for the
GX60, but the MX20 is only listed as Compact Flash (approved style only)
I only find a 32MB and up in the PCMCIA ATA style. The link Gary provided
shows a 4MB Compact Flash that would work in the MX20 and they also have an
8MB Cisco approved style for 44.00
Gary do you have an MX20?

I haven't figured it all out yet - Essentially, what I did was to look for
instructions for what I wanted to do. I'm guessing that I'm not even
scratching the surface on its capabilities. I'll be looking for the
simulator software posted by Michael Kraus......

That display on the unit does not meet the requirements of Part 43. You
need a record that meets 43.9 if you want the unit legal for IFR.

Is 43.9 applicable to aircraft with an experimental airworthiness
certificate?

Negative on the MX20. Only the GX60. The SL30 does not use a data card.

| Subject: | Re: Oil Cooler Selection |
Dwight,
When I built my RV8 .IO360AlB6 ten years ago and converted to IO390AlB6 5
years ago, I experienced the same problems you are encountering. Van
supplied the Positeck oil cooler and suggested firewall mounting. This was
a disaster. No matter what I did, it overheated immediately. I live in
Wisconsin where it is cold. I then tried another popular cooler and mounted
it on the back of cyl 4. It worked better, but still hot. After talking to
friends in the race group, I found that they had all been there and done
that to no avail. The solution is a Niagara/Harrison (now called Niagara)
10 row cooler mounted on the back of Cyl 4 as high as possible and tilted
down towards the cowling outlet as much as possible. Approx 30 to 45
degrees. The reason for the tilt is that when the outflow is directed down
towards the cowl outlet at the bottom of the cowl, it reduces the back
pressure and turbulance that is induced by directing the flow back to the
firewall and then down and out. Depending on your engine installation, you
will be able to obtain between 30 and 45 degrees down tilt before the engine
mount interfers with the oil cooler.
Good luck. If you want to discuss this, do not email me, as I do not always
monitor the internet. Call me @ 920 619 6968 cell anytime, central time
until 1-1 2009, eastern time after, I will be in Spruce Creek Airpark in
Florida January thru April 2009.
