I dig that panel 8) I was planing to doing exactly that in my BH but have decided I don't want a vacuum pump or electric gyros. I have a feeling many would look down their nose at me if I installed a venturi on my BH.

I had bought a brand new regulator and vacuum pump... Decided to use it... Corse the winter weather and white on white... Decided on the vacuum gyros just in case. Did loose the heavy vacuum gyro compass... Never used it.

Yo, Mark,

phones been whacky and texts too...

noticed throttle and carb heat distance. Have flown a couple birds where the carb heat was about an inch and a half left of the throttle so one can push in the carb heat with the thumb while still having the throttle in hand; like we do out here pushing the carb heat in just before touchdown on dirt dusty strips. Its also handy to push both in when in the heat of battle and needing to get shit straightened out pronto!

FWI- I am a DG navigator but mine has a heading bug which helps cause i am libel to forget which way I am heading...if that makes any sense. When I forget to set my DG boy am I in trouble especially on the big black sticky stuff they make us land on in the cities.. I always know where I am going but I might not know the direction I am going.

OK, I am "Pau" (finished in Hawaiian) with connecting iPAD to LTE.

I chose Verizon, to connect the new iPAD Air 2, because of coverage. T-Mobile on an Android is my voice/data plan for regular 3G cellular coverage. But, T-Mobile does not have the mainland coverage or data speeds I relish with Verizon.

Started streaming video over the personal hot spot on the iPAD. NetFlix ran great over Chromecast TV.

I also, shared out the iPAD personal hot spot to my wife's Android and her laptop. The internet speeds are amazing on Verizon Cellular Data!

Verizon is great! But, this stuff is not cheap, my credit card bill will probably be a buzz kill when I total everything up. :x

Good call. Will move the carb heat.... Next to the throttle.
