This is why we do runups by Roger Long
The particular O-320 in our 172N is the sweetest running aircraft engine I have ever known. We maintain it rigorously and proactively and lean aggressively for all ground operations. I have not had to clear a mag once in the 880 hours since it was installed. I flew the plane the day before...

PC connection for GPS 90 wanted by Jim Weir
Send me a self-addressed stamped box (the Post Office small video box is perfect) and I'll loan you mine for a week or so. You can also get the Garmin connector (cheap) from pfranc.com. Then buy yourself a DB connector from Rat Shack and you've got one for yourself. The whole thing together...

Sticking Starter by Wayne
The starter on my O-360 is not releasing when I let go of the starter button. If I rev the engine slightly, it disengages at about 1500 RPM's. I have sprayed silicone spray on the ring gear, and well as the bendix of the starter but have only started it once since and it still stuck. Is...

Narco DME 890 question by Wayne
Anyone have one of these? Mine was inop when I got the plane and I now have it operating (well, at least lighting up) and don't have an operators manual. I tuned in the ILS freq and don't get any distance. If I pull the knob, I get an "RMT error". I have not been in the air yet with the unit,...

Fabric -- Polyfiber vs Air-Tech Coatings by Tom
I've finally finished building my shop and in two weeks will drag my Maule home to refinish. I'm now leaning towards Air-Tech vs Polyfiber. I know Polyfiber is very forgiving in the early steps and easy to use but I've heard that the ease of spraying Aerothane has been an issue with some. I want...

2 seaters by Marco Rispoli
In my quest to purchase an aircraft I came to the conclusion that a 2 seater could fit my mission parameters AND my budget. I can afford: Beech Skipper (goes between 25-35 grands age around 20+) Mooney M10 (same as the skipper ... but it's older age around 30+) Piper Tomahawk (same as the...

Uplink weather advice by Richard Kaplan
If you are planning to invest in an installed system then I agree the WSI system is the best at this point. It is a "transmission" rather than "request" system so therefore you can get continually updated weather data. Even more importantly, WSI is an extremely well-established entity in...

TSIO-360LB OIL LEAK by Stephen Conley
I have the most baffling problem in the history of aviation. In January, the engine in my Mooney 231 was overhauled by a reputable shop. Since then, I can not fly at high altitudes (above 15K) without consuming mass quantities of oil. It appears the oil is coming out the breather tube. After...

Steen Skybolt pre-purchase, northern California by Ed Wischmeyer
I'm considering the purchase of a share in a Steen Skybolt (homebuilt biplane). I'd never seen one before and my mechanical experience consists of peeking under the cowl of rental aircraft (this would be my first airplane). Needless to say, I need somebody familiar with the type to have a...

Pressurized Skymaster by
I'm interested in hearing from people who have direct knowledge regarding the care and feeding of the P337. I have always admired the design and I think it has a lot to offer for the money on the current used market. I have read everything I can get my hands on, and I have talked to many of...

Six seat aircraft? by Jay Honeck
What are the current 6-seat single engine aircraft in production? I can think of the Cessna 206, the newly re-minted Cherokee Six, and the Beech Bonanza (well, it's sort of a 6-seater...). Are there any others? Are there any experimental 6-seaters? I wonder if Cirrus is aiming to release one? --

Ignition Exciter Wiring by Juan E Jimenez
Anybody have the pinouts for a Bendix Ignition Exciter, p/n 10-378340-1? Three pins, A, B, C. I think it's A= Ground, B=DC 7-30v, C=not connected. Also, does anyone know who can make me a custom harness for this unit? -- Get rid of SPAM like I did! http://spamarrest.com/affl?413905

cabin noise locations & dogs by [email protected]
Does anyone know how to find the location in the cabin where the sound levels are the least bothersome for dogs? I'm assuming it's center aft (I have a 4-place plane) but don't know if that's correct. Maybe on the floor? And what frequency range is most bothersome for them?

With my feet flat on the floor, ... not touching the rudder pedals, my Citabria rolls to the left. I have to hold right stick a bit for an entire trip. I was told the the wing had to be "bent". There are adjustments at the base of each strut on both sides of the fuselage. I'd like to take in a...
