questions on business use of my personal aircraft by
Bob
For those of you using your plane for business...
1. What is the tax deductable rate for hourly use of aircraft (e.g.
for cars it is $.36 a mile I believe)?
2. Is it better to own my aircraft personally (to prevent the
aircraft being owned by the company in the event of a lawsuit) and
then have...

Thinking out loud by
Marco Rispoli
Ok ... I went to see a plane I could possibly buy at Central Jersey Airport.
Here's the general impression I got.

It's a Grumman AA1A, 2 seater, red, fast and...

Bob Chilcoat
I posted this question in the "Fuel dip tube for Piper Warrior?" thread, but
it seems to have gotten lost. Does anyone have dip tube data for the
straight-wing PA-28's, or are the fuel tanks the same as the taper-wing
versions? Thanks.

Fuel dip tube for Piper Warrior? by
TTA Cherokee Driver
Is there a fuel dip tube available for the Piper Warrior II
(specifically, pa28-161)? When I flew the 172 I used a fuelhawk dip
tube to measure how much fuel I had. In the warrior there are tabs in
each tank at 17 gals but other than that it seems like guesswork. I
sure would like to find a way...

New engine II by
Frode Berg
Hi all!
Thanks to all that answered my last post! Very informative!
I have one more question regarding a factory overhauled engine.
Is it critical in any way to fly the first 25-50 hours quickly?
Can we shorten the life of the engine by letting the plane sit in the hangar
for many days/weeks...

New engine by
Frode Berg
Hi!
We just got the bill for our new engine.....*GASP**
It should be ready and mounted in a few weeks.
It's a 1968' Piper Arrow 180 hp.
Great plane!
Is there anything we should be aware of the first few hours running a newly
installed factory overhauled engine? It's a Lycoming.
