Cessna air vents by Matt
Hello everyone. It's getting a little chilly around here now; I have seen the "ventubes" that are being sold for $75 apiece. Has anyone simply taped over the inlet in the wing root? I was thinking of giving this a try, seeing that there is no real need for cold air ventilation at this time...

evaluating aircraft by GE
Guys, thanks in advance for your help on this one. My airplane was lost in Katrina (more on that later), and I am looking at buying a quarter share of a local plane. I am trying to get a decent idea of the valuation of the aircraft, which is a '79 Archer II. I have run the numbers on both...

Cessna landing light switch by [email protected]
I have a C-172B that has the dual landing lights in the wing. The first position on the pull-out light switch turns on only the taxi light (at least I assume it is for taxi as it is aimed so low) and the next position turns on both (landing and taxi). Does anyone know if there is a legal...

Audio panel observation/question by Mike Noel
I have a Garmin SL30 as my nav/com1 and a KY97A as my com2. My audio panel is a King something-or-another with (among others) MIC1, MIC2 and BOTH buttons. MIC1 and MIC2 are mutually exclusive and the BOTH switch works independently. When BOTH is off, MIC1 causes transmission and reception on...

Stop Making Sense by Bret Ludwig
Light aircraft are not a business tool. There is _no such thing_ as a rational purchase of a light airplane. It's a heinously expensive toy that will likely be a financial disaster no matter what. Don't go 95% broke buying an unfulfilling spam can. Buy what you want, which if you have anything but...

Lycoming O-360 ring gear by [email protected]
Hey all. Now that my holiday travels are over, I'm planning to do some maintenance to my Cherokee. The ring gear has gotten chewed up over time, and now will sometimes not disengage while the starter is rolling it over. Worn/broken teeth, etc. I was pretty sure it was a 122-tooth model, but...

IO540 baffle repair by Jim Burns
Last week I found the baffle on our left engine's #6 cylinder had broken the bracket off the bottom of the baffle. The bracket holds a long skinny tension/stabilizer rod between the #6 cylinder baffle and the #2 cylinder baffle. From what I can tell, the bracket simply needs to be rivited back on...

Prop Indexing by Mike Granby
Why are fixed-pitch props on PA-28s indexed to the 10-4 position from the front? a) To help hand propping? b) To minimize vibration? c) To improve performance? My money is on (a) but others disagree.

Resource for choosing a plane? by Douglas Paterson
So, I've decided to go for my first airplane. As I get started looking for "the" airplane, I'm hoping I can find some help here in narrowing my choices. The more I look, the more overwhelmed I get. I'm starting to think that finding & buying the damn thing will be anticlimactic--deciding *what*...
