Is there any way to tell if my plane is currently painted in Imron? One paint shop I'm considering won't touch it if it is. The log entry doesn't say. The previous owner had put some clear packing tape over the wing root vents for winter flying, and when I peeled the stuff off it took paint with...

"Mike Spera" wrote in message ... Just for laughs, take a look at the groups the original message was posted to. Is there a spammer toolkit that includes "random newsgroup" software? I don't know if there is such a kit, but I can't...

If I were to take out one of those 20 yr financing plans I could afford up to $200k. Not saying I want to, just saying I could (and live on soup an romin noodles for a few years). Okay it would not be that bad but it would be tighter than I would like. Anyway, if I were to decide to get a...

My C152 has about 7500 TT logged but the hobbs shows about 3900. Does this make any sense? Perhaps the hourmeter was replaced?

A couple of months ago our AI, which had been "coming and going", finally went. We replaced it with a rebuilt unit from "The Gyro House", which had the dual effect of getting our autopilot working properly again. Last month, our DG failed completely and suddenly, after a normal landing in Pella,...

Under the supervision of my IA, we installed a vor radio. I connected the vor audio output to one of the Aud-Audio inputs on the RT328D, thinking this would supply audio to the intercom (connected to the RT328 phone output) and the speaker. The VOR radio output only appears to go to the speaker...

This thread was actually started on the Cherokee 235/236 owner's group a couple of days ago, and it was quite interesting and informative. However, that group is quite small by comparison to rec.aviation -- so I thought I'd open this topic up for everyone here. The challenge is this: Post all the...

Spruce , Wicks , no stock in sheets

In the documentation set that I received with my aircraft (PA28R-201T), I found an "Eqipment List" that does not seem to have been kept up to date. I also have a document with the original equipment list that came with the aircraft when it was born. My latest weight and balance also has equipment...

Technical question regarding gear extension mechanisms: Our flight school's Seneca had a nosewheel collapse today during rollout after a landing. The instructor, pilot, and witnesses agree that all of the airplanes 5 landings were good; none hard and certainly no nosewheel landings. The lights...

Hi In addition to the usual oil filter system, my Mooney M20E is equiped with the aero version of the Frantz oil filter. However, I have much difficulty to locate a supplier of filter elements ( you know the one which looks like toilet paper roll) which are FAA approved. I would really much...

Does anyone know of a good place to overhaul electric fuel boost pumps off a an IO-360 Lycoming engine? Thanks, BJ

I am think of having one of these Air/Oil Separators installed on my R182 (Lycoming O-540) at annual this summer. I have a couple of questions: 1) Do they actually work and keep the oily mess off the bottom of the plane? 2) I think there are at least two different ones available - which is...

I believe I have a Merlyn Automatic Wastegate. In looking through the documentation I got with my airplane (PA28R-201T), I found something entitled "Merlyn Products, Inc. Upper Deck Pressure Control for the Teledyne Continental TSIO-360-F and -FB Engine; Installation Report: Number 18-1; August...

The pitch trim jackscrew in our 74 Archer seems to have a lot of play in two places. There is play at the bottom, where the nut is attached to the rod for the antiservo tab, and there is play at the top, where the bearing is linked to the attachment plate (by what appears to be some sort of...
