Missing C-150s at OSH by
Charles Talleyrand
I'm upset at the EAA!
There were no Cessna 150s doing a full power scream-into-the-air
takeoff during the airshow. Instead they used F-18s.
There were no Cessna 150s parked with pride between the B-1 and the
F-16. Instead they used a DC-3.
The designers of the Cessna 150 didn't give any...

Plane shopping by
Greg Copeland
According to schedule, I anticipate to be in the market for something like
an Archer II (most likely) or an Archer III around the end of the year.
I've been drooling on various shoping rags for about a year now. As such
I have several questions. Hopefully you won't mind answering!

Avionics Help/Recommendations Neede by
three-eight-hotel
You may have seen some of my threads over the past 6-8 months, about an
unpredictable flakey radio problem I was having. It seemed to have
been resolved by replacing a relay in the audio panel.
I have flown the plane for a few months now, with no issues, until
recently. I have encountered the...

Mirror Glaze by
Jon Kraus
I was talking to a fellow pilot last night about cleaning plexiglass and
he suggested using something called Mirror Glaze as a way to get out
minor scratchiing and crazing (or just for a good cleaning). Up to this
point I have only used Plexus or similar products to do our windows.
Has anyone...

New Bendix King panel mount GPS by
Jim Burns
As I promised Mike Granby, I stopped by Honeywell Bendix King's booth at OSH
yesterday to pick their brains about their upcoming yet to be announced King
KLN430 or what ever they will call it.
I got very few answers but very big grins from the rep.
When will it be introduced? Can't say, big...

C-172 versus Sundowner - epilogue by
[email protected]
Well, I went and kicked the tires on the Sundowner.
It is roomy and the two doors are a lot more convienient than the
single Piper door.
But, to make a long story short, the plane had extensive and recent
damage from a landing incident; prop strike, collapsed gear, one
wing, fuselage, and tail...

Maintenance and Insurance by
AceHyflyer
Hi all,
I've been interested in flying for a long time, and I'm finally hoping
to be able to get my PPL and work up from there.
At the moment I'm trying to research what kind of plane I would like to
look into owning either before or after I get my PPL. I have a few
questions for those of you...

Seeking KT-79 transponder install/operational info by
[email protected]
Hey all. I recently inquired about replacing my dead transponder (KT-76) with a worn out cavity. I've since bought an e-bay
special KT-79. I haven't installed it yet, but have powered it up on the bench. Things seem OK, except that the VFR button sends the
unit to code "4263" rather than...

Archer Air? by
Greg Copeland
Down south (Texas), is air conditioning worth consideration on something
with only 180hp? What type of HP and weight hit does it incur? Is it
worth it? I suspect it's a possible source of ongoing maintenance. Should
it be considered or avoided at all costs? Does A/C add much to the cost
of...

C-172 versus Sundowner by
[email protected]
So I've been looking to buy a C-172 and came across this Sundowner.
I've heard all the "Slowdowner" stories and did a side-by-side
from the published specs:
Cruise speed and roc: Sundowner slightly better
Payload: Sundowner slightly better
Runway required: C-172 slightly better.

non TSO AI for co-pilot legal? by
Dico
Hello,
I'm wondering if its legal to put a 2nd artificial horizon in the plane
as a backup if it is not certified? We may want to put one in the
plane as a backup... but just wanted to know if we need a certified
unit or not.
Thanks,
