Dave
Okay, I screwed up. I was relocating the 3 panel switches for my STEC
30. The main power on/off, the nav 1/nav 2 and the alt. hold push
button.
When I relocated them and powered up, the self test succeeded and I
heard the servos testing themselves. But then one of the insulators
covering a lead...

Garmin 340 - IPod player by
Michael 182
I have a Garmin 340 that I'd like to play my IPod through. Is it simple to
pull the the audio panel and hook up a plug that will allow my IPod to plug
into the Music 1 channel? Am I allowed to do this or does an A&P, or
Avionics shop have to be involved?
Any help appreciated.

Old ADF and XPNDR parts by
Ben Smith
Most of my panel is newer King stuff, except for the ARC ADF and Cessna 300
transponder. The ADF and XPNDR kind of 'stand out' because they have the
yellowish colored faceplates. So I thought it would be nice to find the
black colored faceplates for both, so they match the other radios.
I've...

I was thinking about getting my A&P license to help me become a better

I was curious to hear about your story. For example, have you found it
helpful as an owner and/or pilot? Did it take a long time to obtain? What

I have come to the conclusion that it is easiest to get the job done in
Norway were we live to avoid the hassle of paperwork.
However, we are also looking into a new paintjob and possibly some
soundproofing, as well as new interior.

Tiny vacuum pump by
Jim Weir
Does anybody have an idea on how to make a tiny little vacuum pump on the order
of an aquarium pump or so that will draw just a few inches of water? Preferably
110, but I can rig up a 12 volt supply if necessary.
The reason I say this is that I'm getting ready to pack a fairly large number...

Avoiding Shock Cooling in Quick Descent by
O. Sami Saydjari
My engine operating manual (for my Piper Turbo Arrow III) strongly
discourages pulling the power back and doing a quick descent -- it warns
of engine-killing shock cooling. Sounds reasonable to me...but it (and
my airplane manual) does not really seem to say how best to do a fast
descent when you...

$1 + OVC by
Ben Smith
Hello and happy Friday :
I requested an FAA CD-ROM with all the archived paperwork for my plane.
While looking through the various 'Bill of Sale' forms, most of them say '$1
+ OVC' for the selling price. (OVC = Other Verbal Consideration)
Any ideas why this is done?
