Is there a online service/maintenance manual organization? I don't want to buy every aircraft manual, just want access when needed. Thanks

Hi all, I'm taking a break from the corporate world and want to make something. I'm looking for suggestions that could make your aviation life easier. Is there a electronic gadget or widget that would make your flying or airplane experience better?

I have a friend with a Ercoupe whose steering knuckle/assembly has been worn to where it is too sloppy. It's about 2.20 inches in diameter and rotates on the nose strut assy. It's what the scissors are attach to. It either needs to be bushed or trued up and add a bearing sleeve to the mating...

I need to replace the tach cable in a friends plane. The inner part is what needs replacement. I have access to another cable but the inner part is too long. How can I shorten the cable? The end is square and appears to have been put into a press to form it. I tried to square up a piece of...

Do appliances such as fuel pumps, vacuum pumps, altimeters, gyros, etc have type certificates? I know that engines, airframes and propellers have them. I can find those on the FAA website. thanks Dave

Where can I get a generator worked on for my airboat in the Dallas area? It's a delco remy 35A. thanks Dave

Heh...heh... I thought of the same possibility a few months ago..... We have to allow for the possibility that anyone here may be very different in real life than our "on line" personalities... It would not be the first time.. Great entertainment tho....

Does any one have experience (good or bad) with the paint shop located at JKA? Thanks in advance.

Please email me if you hear of one available.

I have a chance to buy a 63 aztec in rough condition. It would be my first plane. Engines have 1200 smoh but one has a cracked cylinder. (estimated repair, $5000?) Paint is poor. ($5000 estimate?) Interior is poor ($5000 estimate?). Brand new props. Only 1 nav/com. older avionics. Auto pilot...

Here we go again.... Tonight the CBS Evening "News" ran a story about the apparently drunk pilot idiot who busted Philadelphia's airspace, buzzed a variety of things and apparently was able to land his Cherokee despite be hammered. The CBS twist on the story? "We told you about the dangers...

Who knows about batteries here? I have a Yaesu (now Vertex Standard) Aviator Pro II VX-120 handheld radio. It's a good, basic unit that has worked flawlessly, it'ss relatively cheap and is all the technology I need for this. My question is about batteries and chargers for it. When I bought the...

My plane's artificial horizon - which was overhauled just a few months ago at a well-known shop - has headed south again. Since it's got a lot of hours on it now (and at least one overhaul, maybe more), I suspect it may be beyond saving and I could be looking at getting a new one. If I do need...

I had to be on the road last weekend, but I managed to schedule my trips so got to Evergreen, AL between 4:30 and 5:30 Saturday afternoon to pop in on the Southeastern Region Fly-In. Got a few pictures of things that interested me. Photos are posted...

How about your nose? Fortunately, I've never had a fire in an airplane - flying or not. However, a few years ago I was flying along at economy cruise (fairly low altitude, as I was enjoying the scenery), when suddenly something smelled hot. No smoke, but something obviously was amiss. Of course I...
