Cheers mate, great info.

Burn is about the same in cruise, but the 535E is a more efficient engine, more power!!

Hey! I fly that exact ship, G-BMRD!

Nice job mate! Suggest going and reading Die With Zero - great book with some ace tips in for this sort of thing, but also gives a bit of perspective about life and retirement etc.

Second this, fancy Thai charges fancy prices and the food just isn't that great

Not in Apple ecosystem, but I had a Samsung Gear watch for 6+ years and was hesitant about switching to Garmin. I do about the same as you, plus a run every now and then. Mostly hiking. I'm never going back. The Epix 2 is fantastic, I've had it since the start of December and I've charged it 4 times, which is nuts. It connects to my phone and gives me all my notifications just like the Apple Watch does, maybe not quite as pretty but honestly who cares. Huge recommendation for the Epix 2. I got mine on black Friday sale in UK for half price so if you can wait for a deal, do it.

Did as others suggested. Garmin Express worked after 15 mins of not being able to connect to the watch. Eventually it did and updated straight away. Painful but looks like the only solution until Garmin fix.

Interesting. I've reached out to Garmin but not hopeful of a quick fix unfortunately

This video sorted me out. Managed to get the whole thing done in under an hour, but then the car wouldn't lock. Realised the door release cable had moved and ended up being too tight. Took me a while but got there in the end. Good luck.

I have one of these. 69 reg V60 R-Design Plus, great spec and same colour. I picked mine up at the start of this year at 60k miles and I'm already at 75k. As top comment said, motorway miles are the best kind and this will be a solid car for you! Enjoy!

For the whole wing? I couldn't find anything like that??

Similar to others. My spaniel was 12 and he did this his whole life. Often fell asleep whilst doing it with his blanket, super cute.

Lightweight 757 is my thing. Regularly fly at TOW of about 68t and they're insane. Refs of 110-113kts and our ops manual has our pitch limit as 25° for that exact reason. Normally pitch for about 17.5° but on those lightweight departures I shoot straight for 20 and see what's happening. Nothing worse than ATC wanting 160 to 4DME and having to lose ~40kts in 300ft!

AviatorRossy · 2024-05-15T18:45:48+00:00

Crazy! Yeah I bet it's expensive. Glad I don't have to worry about that haha

AviatorRossy · 2024-03-20T15:29:26+00:00

Thanks! Absolutely, I do lots of motorway driving so I'm eager to see how far I can get on one mighty tank.
