I'm starting to think about buying an airplane. I'm thinking about something like a 182 or Maybe a hawk XP. I figure if I go looking for a partner I can buy twice as much airplane for the same amount of $$. Any comments on experiences people have had with partners? In general how do you handle...

Does anyone know if any of the aviation vendors will be offering sales via their websites during the AOPA Expo? I know many have sales on site but not being able to attend, I'm still looking to buy some goods at a discounted price. Thanks!

Hi, All; Have looked at some a/c for sale, and have found one I'm interested in. The bird has not been flown in over two years, and is out of annual. The owner said that he would have an annual done before quoting me a price; guess he figures it will be worth more as a result. This was one of...

For anybody that is in construction or that has researched affordable hangar options....for an insulated steel sided and roofed hangar which is more affordable to build- post style (pole barn) or traditional stick (framed walls)? Our EAA chapter built a traditional stick hangar and insulated...

This is a test. It is only a test. If this were a real emergency, you would have been instructed to tune to a computer with official information. This is only a test. -- Al Gilson 1964 Cessna 172 Skyhawk 1970 Volkswagen Convertible

("Yossarian" wrote in the Catalina Perep thread) My first trip I was that low too, but now my FBO insists on a continuous climb to the middle of the channel for better glide distance if your engine quits. 4500' in a 172 is only like 7 miles glide. I wonder how many people have actually...

Snarly Charlie, the 182, has the classic "Cessna drip" from the fuel vent when the tanks are filled and the hangar gets warm. I've tried everything I know to stop it, but all I can do with all the mechanical fixes is slow it down. I'm getting ready to patch the asphalt under the drip and paint...

Just a guess but EEPROM can be very slow indeed. Depending on the exact part number, it may not even be possible to change a single location in the chip. This means that you have to read the entire contents (or a large part) of the chip, change the value you need to update and then write it all...

"Fil330" wrote in message ... Hi all, a very clean and fresh airplane : I think the #3 engine is leaking a little oil.

Six weeks ago my attitude indicator gave up the ghost, after slowly dying over a period of several months. It's been replaced with a re-built unit that's working fine. Two days ago my directional gyro abruptly failed. It worked fine flying into Pella, and it didn't work at all flying out. The...

I have used a Microflo for 4000 hours now. I have found that unless you leave power on for about one minute after setting FOB, the gal remaining, or the fuel used, I can't remember which, will not be correct. Yes, it is EEPROM memory, and does not need power to hold data, but seems to need power...

So I've taken on a project for my club, as a part of my desire to get more involved in the maintenance side of things. I'm to seek out options for new and improved instrument lighting for one of our aircraft. The club Maintenance Chief provided me with some information he'd already collected. ...
