Small airport cold-weather starting - Tanis good enough? by
Mitchel Gossman
OK, so you fly your 4-cylinder Lycoming to a small airport in cold
weather, and if your plane is like mine (Archer O-360), starting in
frigid weather without preheat or an hour in a warm hangar is nearly
impossible. I haven't ever flown to an airport where there was not an
FBO with a hangar or...

Why are commuter flights so expensive? by
Jay Honeck
Here's a mystery that I just cannot answer:
To fly to Las Vegas from Chicago costs $99.00. (For example.)
To fly to Cedar Rapids from Chicago costs $300.
Naturally, at that price practically no one flies on that plane into Cedar
Rapids.
Question: WHY do the airlines that fly into Cedar Rapids...

Attention Capt.Doug by
M.Lopresti
Captain Doug
Had a quick thread on flying in the U.S.A about 3 weeks ago, I depart
this Sunday and still don't know if I should take my flying essentials
half way across the world? Would you think I'd be wasting my time or
should enquire about flying once arrivng in Florida?

I'm starting to get geared up for my written test, and was finally reading
the chapter on systems last night. I was reading about carb
heat and how it works and was surprised to learn that the temperature in the

logic of IO-360 100hr injector inspection 93-02-05 by
Robert M. Gary
Once again, its time for the 100 hr AD sign offs for my Mooney. I
still cannot come close to understanding the logic behind the injector
line AD on lycomings. My understanding is that some A&P at some point
accidently bent some of the lines and didn't understand that it would
effect the available...

I've asked this before, but - to date - every attempt I've made to reach

First of all, there's the NOTAM about "anti-theft device". What's

Prop to High RPM on downwind by
Mitty
I've been taught to set the prop to high RPM on final, but I don't like this
very much because then, when I run my checklist for the first time on downwind,
I have to leave one item "open."
So what's wrong with doing it on downwind? (This in a Cherokee 6 or and Arrow)
It seems to work fine, does...
