I was in the process of entering the AWOS freq and when I pulled the center knob to select the .72 on my King KX125 the whole center knob and shaft came out. Has anyone had this problem? What does it involve to fix it?

For the last 3 months or so, after every flight, there are small streaks of oil on the inside of the lower cowling on my 67 'Hawk . . . if I don't wipe them up, they drip down on the tire of my nose...

Does anyone know if there would be tax consequences for the lucky winner of the AOPA Commander 112. Thanks!! Jon Kraus '79 Mooney 201 4443H @ TYQ

Hey all... I posted about a year ago about "residual engagement" on a Skytec starter for my Cherokee 180. At that time, I discovered the poor way that they wired it for certified aircraft use. Using the alternate wiring (for experimental only) http://www.skytecair.com/Wiring_diag.htm, this...

Looking at the Sporty's catalog, there are two types listed,...

The AMD Alarus IFR trainer that I'm thinking of buying is pretty well equipped and reasonably priced but it doesn't come with an autopilot. Is it possible to retrofit one with reasonable cost and reliability?
