    I did get the FCC station license. I also have the FCC Restricted Radiotelephone Operators permit that I had to get back when I got my Private Pilots License. Guess that dates me a bit. I've not had anyone in Canada or The Bahamas ask to see either one. But, since both are required when flying out of the country, why not? -------- David Maib RV-10 #40559 Transition Trainer New Smyrna Beach, FL Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=376294#376294

    WRT the "right" to bear arms, I think the meaning of "well regulated militia" has been somewhat lost in translation over the intervening 200+ years. But most people apparently prefer to ignore this fact. -------- Mike Your political opinions are noted. And ignored.

    Exactly. Its less than a tank of avgas, and if for some reason you meet a customs guy on a bad day and they decide you need one, it could cause you to throw away hundreds for missed hotel and other arrangements...so no, I haven't been asked for it ever but at least I have one less worry every time I travel. It's also why I had no hesitation on going with 12" N-numbers....no worry about temporary numbers for each trip, but I also think that they look better if done nicely, and that a self-picked number often gives something of a statement of pride when you can pick it for something meaningful. It is just easier it you meet the full regs when you can. Tim On Jun 22, 2012, at 2:30 AM, "dmaib@me.com" <dmaib@me.com> wrote: > > I did get the FCC station license.

    The US Supreme CT issued their opinion, which is the only one that matters, twice within the past 5 years, affirming that folks for a long time tried to tie the two clauses together. They affirmed it is an individual right, not just a right if one was part of a militia. So we can rack a gun in an RV-10 however we might wish. I kind of like the old Corsair style, outside the prop arc so there is no worry about syncing with the prop.

    There is a lot of back-and-forth adjustments to the sticks to get them vertical at the same time the ailerons are in line with the flaps and wing tips. I'm sure that was not the problem. I considered bending the stick as others have done but my wiring was internal to the stick and I didn't want to disassemble the stick grip and re-pull the wires. By the way, when you align your sticks vertically with the ailerons locked in trail be sure to do this with the elevator in the neutral position. You do get some minor aileron deflection as you move the stick fore and aft. -------- Dave Moore RV-6 flying RV-10 QB - flying Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=376306#376306

    Subject: Re: Update on Garmin G3X
    Karol, As Robin stated, I really enjoy the G3X system. I have had no sensor issues or system issues with it. Two G3X screens on the pilot's side has more pixel real estate than one 10.4 screen. With three screens there are multiple combinations to use. I like having one major brand on the panel which leads to seamless configurations and easy setup. Having the IFR NAV/COM the same company as the EFIS's is also nice for setup and is user friendly with the same functions and button pushing. It also contributes to a clean and simple layout. Discrete in's on the G3X is very useful, the other screens probably have this function too. I have my (left door open), (right door open), (carbon monoxide alert) and (aux power). They are all easily setup using the grounds and take away random lights on the glare shield. I also like having a system that is widely used on certified aircraft. A lot of units probably mean long term and financial stability. The downside, as Robin mentioned, is the expensive updates. I pay for a bundle at $600 for chartview, safe taxi, nav charts, obstacles, terrain, AOPA and another 300-380? for nav charts on the 430W. The other fee is XM. Another reason I went with Garmin was to have GTS800 traffic system. This unit was a lot of work to install, mostly due to the ground plane on the top antennam but well worth it. I am able to see the ads-b on planefinder and have the ADS-b in and out to satisfy the nextgen whenever that rolls out, 2020?, but don't have the capability to see traffic or weather via ADS-b. However, the XM weather/music and the active traffic is better, I just have to pay a lot more for it. For the record I have a D10 backup that works great too. My second choice would have been AFS. Absolutely just my personal opinion and really you can't go wrong with any of the other screens. Just wanted to point out my reasons for inquiring minds. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karol Hansen" <karolamy@roadrunner.com> Sent: Friday, June 22, 2012 10:00 AM Subject: RV10-List: Update on Garmin G3X > > > Thank you Robin and Dave for your good input on the G3X.

    Subject: Re: Stick - Panel Interference
    The stick can interfere here and there on the extreme ends. However, before making major changes keep in mind, if you have a passenger in the right seat, you are far more likely to hit their legs than any other type of interference. It's an individual decision, but personally, i never worried about it.

    Guys, I don't want to "muddy the waters", but I just checked my Canadian license, and there is absolutely no reference to any restricted radio operators license or anything else in it. We Candians all have the "Passport" style license since 2009. Having said that I did get a seperate radio operators license way back in 1977 so maybe it's assumed that a Candian pilots license includes the radio license. So for anyone heading this way I can't imagine how anyone will know either way. Of course this is just MHO. I will take a look in Transport Canada's maze (web site) for more info. ;-) Rick #40956 Southampton, Ont On Fri, Jun 22, 2012 at 7:12 PM, dmaib@me.com <dmaib@me.com> wrote > > > Bob Turner wrote: > > I too still have an FCC restricted operator's license from 1982....it's > a piece of yellow cardboard that I filled out by hand, sent it in, got it > back with an FCC stamp on it.

    From: "Bill Strahan" <bill@gdsx.com>
    I just got back from the Bahamas on Tuesday. Flew our Grumman AA5, and 2/3 into each flight had the wonderful thought "I'd be there if I was done with the RV-10." Anyway, flown into Bahamas and Mexico many times and never was asked for radio operator or station license. I've never gotten either. I figured when I started making international flights 13 years ago that no one was actually asking for them and so far I've been correct. I've never been asked for anything going into the Bahamas. I make copies of aircraft registration, airworthiness, and W&B as well as my pilots license and drivers license each time before I go. I've had to provide those copies in Mexico a few times, but in the Bahamas no one has ever asked for anything relating to the plane or my pilot credentials. Stopped an MYEH, MYLS, MYES, MYNN with great service by APP out of KFPR to rent vests and raft. And with all that said, I agree, the Bahamas are rather unpleasant and not worth the price of avgas to get there. (Doing my part to keep the crowds down.) This flight was also my first long flight with the ADS-B connected to my iFly. Wow, it was as big a game changer as my first handheld GPS. Leaving Dallas we dodged storms all the way to Atlanta, well out of our way, and still made it down to Florida the next day. I would have gotten stuck several times if the ADS-B radar info hadn't helped me plan deviations 80-100 miles out instead of waiting until I could see it. Not tactical (it's not real time, like on-board radar!) but as a strategic tool it's phenomenal. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=376391#376391
