I don't know all the details and what I know is second hand, but it appears a prospective buyer of a Navion lost control of the plane on the ramp and caused some serious damage. This happened mid week at Avion Jet Center, Sanford Airport (SFB), just north of Orlando, FL. Allegedly, the...

Is anyone who uses Google to post here having problems? Many threads I select come up emty with the message "unable to locate thread". Has been happening alot the last several days. It is happening on several computers I have tried both at home and at work and at friends.

Anyone here have or use the new Apollo CNX80 ? I am getting the list together for my avionics upgrade and an swaying between the garmin 430, CNX80 or a smaller IFR certified GPS/com and MX20. I would really like the MX20 but wouldnt be able to get it if I got the 430 or CNX-80 but I want a GPS...

I'm working with a friend on his RV-10 project. I was looking over the engine parts prior to assembly and I noticed something on the left mag that I wasn't familiar with. On the side of the LH mag, there's a small stud with a couple of nuts and washers on it. The label reads : Retard. 13-15...

Anybody got a 214 service manual that I can borrow for a week. I'll be glad to pay a reasonable "rental" plus send a reasonable deposit plus shipping to get it. I freely admit...to blundering and misreading and then using the KI-211 pinout to wire the interconnect to the 170B. Here's some free...

Does anyone have a copy of the manual that they would xerox and mail to me for a couple of bucks? I have a fully functional unit but no manual. Thanks very much, -- Peter D. Brown http://home.gci.net/~pdb/

My rotating beacon stopped rotating and I need to replace it. I would like to do this as economically as possible as I don't do a whole lot of night flying and would rather spend the money on avgas. It seems my options are limited to the Whelen HRCFA strobe - I tried to use a 70509 flasher but...

I'm getting conflicting information, so pitch in to set me straight. In the archives, I've seen several instances where owners have claimed taking their O-200's over 3000 hrs before overhaul. I believe that with regular oil analysis, this could probably be true. HOWEVER, I've seen other posts...

Does anyone have a source and part number for Stainless Steel structural screws for the fuel tanks on my 1972 Cherokee 6-300? Spruce, Wag, etc. have them but they are not structural.

I am moving to Madison, WI later this year and have heard thru the grapevine and on the internet that new hangars are being built at the Middleton, WI airport (Morey Field, C29). Is this true? Are any available? The airport folks referred me to the city of Middleton, but my calls have not been...

I need to seal my plexiglass windshield in a few spots and happen to have some GE Silcone II sealant on hand. It is spec'd as low odor but releases methanol and ammonia as it cures. I have seen warnings against using regular silicone sealant since the acetic acid it releases can corrode aluminum,...

Hey, all... as usual, I figured I'd try to get some opinions on a new purchase for the Cherokee. Mains are worn out, and I am leaning towards some McCreary AirHawks. Any thoughts? The plane sits outside, but has been getting lots of flying in of late. I find it hard to believe that a tire that...

Can anyone recommend a source to replace the erratic Tach in our 79 Archer. I'm looking for "new" and have seen the Mitchell replacements with custom markings as acceptable. But since this is for a club airplane which is billed on Tach, I would like to get an identical Tach with both tenth and...

On our way home not long ago we landed in Denver with our oxygen getting low. I asked for a fill and they gave it their best shot but our configuration didn't leave them sufficient space for all of the adapters they needed to use. The ride home was...well, I was glad that I had the oximeter. (As...
