More glass added to to the cockpit........
I recently cancelled my XM audio subscription b/c I was not using it anywhere outside the plane. I used to use it in the shop every night when building, but since the plane is complete, the XM became just another monthly bill.
Well, my wife and kids picked up on the loss of XM gave me an iPod Touch for my birthday! I know I am late to the iPod game, but this thing is cool! I did have to have Ryan show me the basics, but it is pretty dang intuitive once you get rolling. Some screen shots below..
I have all my music:
Lots of episodes of the CBS Radio Mystery Theatre and "The Falcon"
The Onion Radio News - A must have...
Asteroid Video(for the copilot...)
Weather (with WiFi)
Even APRS: (with WiFi)
And a new app that lets you use the GPS over sectionals!!
It makes a nice backup.
Like I said, I know I am late, but giddy up! I have mine on a RAM mount with jointed arm allowing for easy passenger or pilot positioning. It looked great in bright sunlight on the lunch flight to Mason City today.
