Engine preheater on ebay?? by
skym
There's a portable engine preheater on ebay motors for $129. It looks
like an ok unit but I'm asking for any of the collective wisdom on pros
or cons of a unit like this. There's also one on Sportys for $399.
Any opinions on either or a comparison?

engine startup problem by
Frank Ch. Eigler
Hi -
Very rarely, one of the 6-cylinder Lycoming IO-540's in my Aztec acts
up after startup. There is a fair amount of vibration, and a high MP
(20") for the resting 1000rpm, and if the engine monitor is turned on,
it shows three of the six cylinder (1, 3, 6) not making any heat.
Turning on the...

Bendix King GPS Updates by
Matthew Waugh
I'm looking for information, feedback, pitfalls of updating Bendix-King
GPS's such as the KLN-89B and KLN-94 by updating the cards directly as
opposed to plugging into the GPS itself. I understand that there is a card
reader you can buy and that there is a firmware upgrade to it that allows

Removeable tie down stakes - recommendations by

PS Engineering PM3000 Intercom? by
One's Too Many
Anyone here have the PS Engineering PM3000 stereo 4-place intercom?
Is it really worth $200 more than the comparable Flightcom 403?
How well does it sound with music input from an iPod?
It's TSO'ed, so my A&P/IA is having much less heartburn about
installing it... seems the Houston FSDO has...

I posted a question a week or so ago about multi-probe engine monitors.
I decided to go with Electronics-international UGB-16. I can monitor
a total of 16 points. So with 6 EGT's and 6 CHT's, I have 4 spares. I
opted for an OAT function because I don't like the placement of my...

Lightspeed Zulu pirep by
Kobra[_3_]
Flyers,
I would like to give a small PIREP of the new Lightspeed Zulu headset. I
bought one for the Bluetooth capability, but I was pleasantly surprised to
find it had much more to offer.
The comfort and fit was equal or surpassed my Bose X.
The ANR was about equal IMO to other headsets...

Me, I'm asking Santa for a new, solid-state transponder -- which is about as

Part 91 instruction and TBO by

I am quite sure that one can offer an aircraft for hire with an
instructor under part 91 with an engine that has gone beyond TBO.
However, someone I know called the FSDO in California and asked, and I
was astounded when he was told that they told him if he was going to do
instruction for hire the...
