Just wondering how well your weather radar works in most planes? Please tell me they are better than the ERJ
i am sure it depends on the aircraft but just wondering an overall impresion

 

[HiSpeedFlyer]

I flew a seneca that had a better radar than the ERJ.

 

[RP170]

I'm guessing you are talking about the 145? The 170 has a sweet radar.

I don't like the radar inthe Ultra. It is usless if you fly through heavy rain. Plus if it displays a green echo, watch out. That will rip the wings off.

 

[DHPFLYN]

Yes the 145 radar is hopeless

Oh yeah, thats great to know.
No TCAS, radar sucks, melt in the summer, freeze in the winter, anything else I should know about before I finally shoehorn my fat ass into this airborne abomination?:bawling:

The Ultra fleet is getting TCAS installed. I had dinner two nights ago with a buddy who's in the U-boat and his last plane was one of the ones that had gotten a TCAS installed.

Great. Just got my type in the Ultra today.

 

[Guitar Guy]

Great. Just got my type in the Ultra today.

Don't worry: after Dec 7, the Ultra will pay the same as anything else but a 2000EX/LX for an SIC.

And congrats, RP170. Enjoy IOE and flying on line.

Could be worse. I could be a Yankees fan.

The good news is that you will be able to afford that therapist soon.imp:

FYI, I hate coffee at the FBO. It is always crap. Therefore, I usually ask my SIC to grab a crew car and run to Starbucks before each flight. It seems to work better for everybody that way.:nuts:

 

[btodd77]

fuc##n' sh#t man!!!!!

 

[fischman]

fuc##n' sh#t man!!!!!

Alright. I'll settle for seattle's best, and if I suspect you spit in it you can practice going to get another one until you get it right!

 

[Duke of Ale]

That's what I like about BFI. They have both Starbucks ans Seattle's Best! Plus the ladies behind the counter!!!!

 

[HiSpeedFlyer]

Could be worse. I could be a Yankees fan. No doubt, you are 100% correct.

Fisch, I'm down with flyin' if yer buyin' (especially if its Dunkies) if they are stupid enough to pair us together ( what a thought, almost as dangerous as btodd77 and I in the same area code together...God help humanity! ) just don't expect me to genuflect in your presence!
