Lightspeed -- Was:Oshkosh 2003 Redux by Jack McAdams
Everything was trimmed!! (-; Counterpoint to the Lightspeed QA 'issue': I have a 20XL and a 30XL. Both have performed flawlessly from the day I got them. Maybe I'm just lucky, but that never happens! To be fair, I don't listen to music in the air so I am unqualified to comment on the audio...

Av Map -- An absolutely stunning color GPS by Jay Honeck
http://aviation.c-map.com/ProductInfo/AVMAP/ekp3c.asp Mary and I picked up one of these things in OSH, and I'm absolutely stunned that there has been virtually NO discussion of this almost unbelievable "hand-held" here on the groups. When my Airmap 300 started to get hinky, I started down the...

While I was watching the news from an international satellite, they showed a single-engine Piper that made an emmergency crash-landing on a highyay in Greece.

O-200 Modifications by Charles Talleyrand
Are there any O-200 engine modifications that increase performance. I don't really want to see my C-150 at 150 mph, but it's fun to dream. -Thanks

Oil coolers by Dan Luke
Somehow, in 6 years of flying, I missed the fact that not all light piston airplanes have oil coolers. Why is this so? What factor determines when an O-320, for instance, must have an oil cooler? ISTR that the oil does a large percentage of the cooling in aircraft piston engines. How does the...
