Garmin Announces The Release of the NEW GTN 650 and GTN 750
The wait is over for the GTN 650 and GTN 750 from Garmin. The panel-mount units are equipped with the latest touchscreens, remote audio control, flight planning and electronic chart capabilities.
The screen area has changed dramatically, in addition to the desktop-like interface. The GTN 650 offers 53 percent more screen area than the GNS 430W and the GTN 750 offers 98 percent more screen area. The larger screen area allows the viewing of the entire charts.
The units also offer enhanced situational awareness. There is a built-in terrain database that shows when the potential conflicts are ahead. The units also allow pilots to fly GPS-guided LPV glidepath approaches down to ILS minimums.
In addition to the wide compatibility with other Garmin products, there is also XM Satellite weather, traffic and lighting available on a moving map. Of course, XM radio is also available.
Gary Kelley, Garmin’s vice president of marketing had this to say about the units. “We’re confident that the GTN series will set a new standard on what avionics for general aviation aircraft should be, just as the GNS 430 and 530 did when they were announced in 1998.”

Pilots could face stiff fines - up to six figures - for violating new overflight regulations that place the National Airspace System on a slippery slope. The FAA has ceded to another federal agency - the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration - authority to enforce what amount to new airspace restrictions.
AOPA has requested that the Air Force, which plans to establish a temporary military operations area during military exercises scheduled for June from Volk Field Air National Guard base in Wisconsin, assure unimpeded airway access for general aviation flights. Members are encouraged to submit comments on the plan by Feb. 3.
No user fees. No increase in avgas or jet fuel taxes. General aviation pilots can celebrate what wasn't included in the long-term FAA reauthorization bill. The House and Senate ironed out details on a four-year FAA reauthorization bill Jan. 31, paving the way for a full vote in both houses before the latest short-term funding extension expires Feb. 17. Highlights of the bill indicate that GA fared well.
After achieving his dream of learning to fly, AOPA member Carl Houghton wanted an airplane of his own. When it came time to investigate financing, he made some inquiries into AOPA's Aircraft Financing Program.
AOPA is calling for the Federal Communications Commission to revoke LightSquared's conditional approval to develop a mobile-satellite network. A technical committee has concluded that the transmissions pose intractable interference problems for aviation navigation and other uses of GPS.

Found the service outstanding...
"On 11/15/04 I stopped over night at YNG and Winner Aviation. I found the service outstanding and the folks very friendly. They found a room for us at a very reasonable rate and provided a ride to the hotel. The ground crew offered to put the plane in the hanger over night because of frost warning. Great service and hospitality. all this for the cost of a "top off". I recommend Winner to all other pilots and recommend we "top off" to support this service. "
