Yes Sirs, sometime soon. in the winters, went thru the FAA AFH, PHAK manuals, the ultralight advisory circular, some inertial theory and practice, three letter acronyms tend to be harder to googolve. still have a hard time figuring the amount of beaches marked offlimits in the sectionals, felt like 70% of airspace is restricted access. DUATS has no guest login. needs a pilot's last name and certificate # to enter... well, at this rate i'll just play with parsing NOTAM, METAR data until then. btw, why does NAVAID info for TSOs still display morse code for airport identification, is there a procedure for that?

O wait a minuet, I don't have room. Your right, I love my Gull, but extra space is not part of this plane design. On the other hand, the smaller fuselage in fibreglass is just beautiful, and now that I have the wheel pants on, it looks fast just sitting on the ground. I have a piece of wire that is my 7 gallon appproximate fuel burn, and I just lay it on a sectional and see where the airports are, which also about 1 1/2 hours with about 1/2 hour reserve.
Thanks for your input.

Rahul,
Interesting fact on Morse Code still being on sectionals. Kind of redundant, as that is World War 2 vintage, and I doubt that most of us can figure it out. Back in the early VOR naviagtion radio days, it was there to help identify the station, but now it's just clutter on the map.
