Hello, I've to replace the rubber seal between the wing and the fuselage. The problem is that I do not know what glue to use. My mechanic told me to use Bison Tix, this made me to rise an eyebrow because I was once being told not to use that stuff because of corrosion problems.(This was when I was...

Usually the hand on my ammeter bounces for a few moments while taxing and then settles down at about 20 amps. Yesterday it continued to be erratic with a few calm moments with the hand indicating 10 amps. The ammeter has 1976 stamped on the back. Do these things ever wear out? Is there any way...

Okay, I always love reading everyone's thoughts on these types of questions so I'll post one for myself. Well, my wife finally gave me thumbs up to buy a plane after taking a 6-year break from flying. Well, I'm pretty conservative and worry about losing my job, etc. But darn it, it is about...

Well, the Warrior finally got too small for the family (or rather for all the equipment that seems to accompany two small children) so I've traded up to a 1980 Saratoga... http://www.mikeg.net/plane/n8096J It used to be a turbo, but that was removed when LoPresti put a factory engine in it 550...

I have a King KLN90B and it's knobs have gone haywire. I think it has to go back to King for a rebuild. Is there any way I can get an RMA number and send this back to King or do I have to go through an avionics shop?

There's an auto upholstery shop in town that is very well regarded and while talking with him regarding my car I got to wondering if I could pull out my Cherokee seats and have him leatherize them. FAR 43.100 states pilots can: (11) Repair upholstery and decorative furnishings of the cabin,...

Hey folks... maybe someone in the collective memory knows something about this. I've got a small box (4"x2"x1") that says Universal Navigation Adapter Model UNA-1 Cook Radio Corp It's got a DB-15 and two DB-9 connectors on it. I believe it's a switchbox to run one nav head from two radios (e.g....

Hi Folks! Was there ever a prop modified with a trailing edge bump for the purpose of increasing MP at the ram air inlet? Faint memory is maybe Lopresti marketed a Hartzerll with a trailing edge tab. Thanks Kent Felkins

A lot of us can not afford the $100K+ aircraft. Even Taylor is a bit too expensive at $54K. When can we expect to see something in the $15 to 25K range? I will note that I am seeing a lot of used aircraft in that range. I gather that the market is a bit depressed still.

I just noticed today a tendency for my vacuum AI to vibrate a few millimeters in its pitch axis occasionally, then the movement damps out. The roll and pitch indication seem to be OK, and the vacuum DG is working fine. The vacuum guage is at 5.0, right where it belongs. I'm wondering if this is...
