General aviation is under attack: Many 'forces' would like it to go to the dust bin of history. Aircraft charter services, fractional ownership etc is growing leaps and bounds and as such, more than EVER, FBO's are LOADED with NON FLYING persons waiting to be picked up for a charter or...

I've posted twice before on the problems I have been having with my Narco radio's: http://groups.google.com/group/rec.aviation.owning/browse_frm/thread/981307ec4df68cc6 I've decided that I'm going to pull the radio and the connector tray and run new coax from the radio to the antenna, after...

We have a '67 KCAB that has a weird vibration from time to time. You can feel it in the stick and seat. It is the worst around 2200-2400 rpm but only in the air. On the ground it isn't noticeable. Oil analysis is fine and the engine seems smooth. We've installed new motor mounts and everything...

Hello all. I know it's been awhile since I updated, but progress has been slow. Here's where we're at: Last weekend: - Pulled valve covers, rockers, pushrods, exhaust. - Pushed on valves and were unable to feel any sticking like there was the last time we definately had sticking valves. Decided...

Our Mooney has a 500 hour recurring AD for inspecting the Impulse Coupler. While they have it off they will inspect the points and condensers and replace worn ones. Our left mag was out of time by 5 degrees so they had to remove the magneto anyway. Jon Kraus PP-ASEL-IA '79 Mooney 201 Jim Burns...

Looking for a good salvage yard to buy a used top 1/2 of a tail cone for an Archer II. Thanks -- Jim Burns III Remove "nospam" to reply

I recently bought a Garmin 296 and found I can not upload route or data from the 296 to Flitestar. The Garmin 295 worked flawlessly. I have the serial cable and the USB cable. Neither one will allow this transfer. Does anyone have any better experience? If not beware...I wouldn't...

Hi all, I'd like to hear from anyone who has used the EasyPulse 5 while flying, and can confirm whether it works at 12K-18K altitudes. Trying to put together a good but low-buck oxygen system. -Dan

The interior is finished. The work was done at Southern Avionics' new shop at Mobile Downtown Airport. http://tinyurl.com/gj5kt It took 3-1/2 weeks and, according to their manager, went 90% over their labor estimate. He is somewhat in shock about how long it took--it was their first small...
