Why 10.5? I did mine at 2500ft.

You have to be in the designated airspace. I could have flown around with Palm Beach approach. Climbing above 10K was easier. Plus my radio was acting up.
I assumed you lived under a class b or c of some sort.. or under the veil.

Since you said you were affected by the PBI TFR I just assumed it was closer to fly a few miles then to go to 10,000 ft

I spent 35 minutes droning around at 10,500 for the validation report. The GTX 335 passed with flying colors. My check is in the mail.
Anyone else done this?
Just did the exact same thing with my GTX-335 and passed on the first try. Closest class B or C is down in Minneapolis so climbing up on the flight home from the annual made the most sense. Now I just need to figure out how to reprogram the side number into the 335 as I am changing the N-number on the 185. I'm currently on a 1-plus hour hold with the Garmin folks, but does anybody know if I can do it myself or do I need to take it to a Garmin dealer? Thanks.
