    Yeah, the early week and before/after hours are a photographer's wet dream up at Reno. Once all the fans and posers show up, it's a nightmare.

    Sometimes it was a miracle that we could get our aircraft in and out of the pits without killing several hundred oblivious bystanders.

    Boom, bam boom. I got all set up to do Garmin GPS updates for both my GNS430W and GPSMAP 696 from my mac.

    For the 430, there's a mac version of Jeppesen Distribution Manager that says it fails to install, but is actually successfully installed.

    For the 696, you have to use garmin's "old way" of updating through the web. There will be a link on the right hand side of the screen. Then you have to have a communicator plugin (which is no longer supported by Google Chrome). I ended up having to use Safari and it finally worked.

    I just ordered a GNS430W card reader for $65 and now I'm all set up to do my updates from home! :woot: I hope this info is helpful in case anyone else was having difficulties, or was about to go buy the $150 PC special from Best Buy

    It's the gear mirror on the right wing... let's me visually confirm the perceived status of the landing gear.

    Beautiful day on September 14, 2016 about 1200 hours at PDK A/P in ATL.

    View from parking lot area. Great place to see the upcoming air show.

    ...^^^ ... Coming soon kiddies and it should be a good show at PDK in ATL.

    PS ... I have attended or worked some of these shows at PDK and/or Peachtree City and they are usually very good and super crowded.

    Apparently a De Havilland Vampire racing in the jet class at Reno just called mayday and crashed, pilot OK. Couldn't make the runway. Don't have details, but it sounds like he landed short or to the side of a runway.
