Who can and should make changes to POH required to be carried in a 1979 model Aircraft. My question is especially directed at section 9 supplements. The most of the equipment listed in section 9 of the aircraft I fly is no longer installed in the aircraft and new equipment installed but not covered in the supplements. Manuals for the equipment are carried with the aircraft.

I have a three-ring binder for each aircraft I own. I keep it up-to-date with new equipment manuals/info and remove old manuals for retired components.
- Hello, I am so sorry that this awesome Association is dealing with Sunsetting Policies. My former company did that in June of 1999.My recommendation is to Partner with Foreflight, a Boeing company to include a Portal to their planner, much like what you do for rental cars.
- Partner with Seattle Avionics once again. Since they have connectivity to several panels, pilots could use the browser on AOPA to create their data file for the panel avionics. Not sure if they ...

I am also disappointed to lose Flight Planner. It is my primary flight planning tool. It's loss and the fiasco that was the AOPA forums are not confidence building.
I'd recommend speaking with the folks at Adventure Pilot. The iFly GPS just rolled out predictive flight planning. It's an excellent tool at a very reasonable cost. For my money (I own three units), it out performs far more expensive solutions.

A gray winter Saturday was perfect weather to spend in the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum. Located on the Hamilton International Airport grounds, one could fly there if so desired. The museum is well worth a visit, containing a nice collection of aircraft representing Canadian military aviation heritage and one of only two flying Lancaster's in the world.

At great personal risk, I was able to surreptitiously obtain this shot of the new prototype Commonwealth stealth fighter. The retro styling is intended to disguise its true capabilities. Note the use of non-strategic, low radar profile materials. In keeping with modern environmental doctrine, the aircraft is 98% recyclable. Naturally, it is powered by Rolls-Royce new high fiber engine.
We are getting ready to fly to the West Coast from MN. We'd like to cross in the Southern region, fly up the coast, and then fly back a northerly route. I can't discover a good way to find favored routes and altitudes. The one time I did this before, we studied the sectionals and tried threading our way through with predicted obstacles shown on Garmin Pilot. That was tedious though and certainly not an efficient way to plan. I am imagining that there should be a route selection ...

Adventure Pilot just released a new software update for their iFly portable GPS. It includes a feature called Real Plan, which automates route planning. This video does demonstrates the features:
