    Not only is it nice to fly with you, but I really like how you put up your instrument readings up on the screen. Great work with putting these videos together. Not just a great pilot but great work putting together the video.

    Nice plane and it looks like it was a beautiful day for flying. Thanks for sharing! It made for a nice escape from the snowy midwest where my airport is snowed in.

    Are there non commercialized flight schools at Palatka? Moved to St johns not long ago. And my private license has been on my bucket list for 7 years. Love the view, smooth, steady, and methodical way of doing things. I assume you are a CFI or were?

    Glad to see another video from you Art. As always, it's a pleasure to vicariously ride along with you. I do have one question. What device called out Rwy 27 and its length as were about to depart? I see that you have a Garmin 696, which I also have in my 310, but mine only calls out traffic and 500' on final approach.

    • @billinga
      @billinga  9 місяців тому +2

      Gary, thank you. The callouts are from ForeFlight and yes, still find the 696 useful. So useful that I have an additional unit on standby if needed.

If you want more speed consider aerostar 600A non turbo very fast,super reliable engine that climbs 1800 ft per minute, rate click g o e engine 500ft per min, range 1000 as 1q00 nautical miles depending g on power setting,and 220 nts 800pft, just does not get any better, I put over 2000 hours in mine never had any problems, Christopher Ottawa canada
