What kind of iPad is best to buy and Can you tell me what radio hand held is best for second use in case of emergency

[@jvtaylor3]

IMO iPad Mini and a PJ-2!

[@jennis23]

+1 for iPad mini

@@jennis23 Ditto for the Mini. Pay to get the latest or maybe next to latest model, and make sure that the unit has GPS capability (with GPS chip) plus cellular capability. It's really nice when you can bluetooth the mini to a WAAS GPS in the plane, plus get TIS-B and FIS-B coverage. And I recommend getting a mount so you can place the mini somewhere on or off to the side of the cockpit display. Don't get in the bad habit of staring at it while it is sitting on your lap.

I would switch tanks even before I trim.......thats the most frequent reason for engine stopping....
