Had a chart! ;) amazing paper stuff still works. Only downside is you have to know how to navigate. I will explain those principles later. 

Sorry, I could not resist!

I was threading the needle into the Detroit area (see picture) when my iPad (using ForeFlight) displayed a message that it was shutting down due to high temperature.  The pinkish line is my flight path and where the dark red line crosses it just below that building is about where it quit.  It wasn’t critical at that point because I was very close to my destination (KVLL).  Plus I have a Garmin 430W, but it spooked me.  That was a first for me.  Have any of you experienced this treat in a critical flight regime?  What did you do?
