Dico

I am wondering if someone can point me to a site or give me information
on the cabin sizes between the early Twin Comanches and the later
models that have the extra window. I'm curious as to the leg room a
back seat passenger may have. ie: would someone 6'5" and 250lbs...

slow. Here's where we're at:
Last weekend:

The smell of a decomposing mouse somewhere forward of the firewall by
Peter R.
Man, this aircraft ownership thing really does present its share of tests.
The latest issue I am dealing with is a decomposing mouse somewhere forward
of the firewall. My aircraft is a Bonanza V35 and I am flying at least
twice a week, but frequency (or lack thereof) of flight appears to...

Mystery Oil leak... cont'd and long by
Jim Burns
Why would a cold engine drip oil out of the breather? If you're bored or
have any answers... read on.
Lycoming IO-540 C4B5
Like some of the other owners in the group, we've had a mystery oil leak on
one of our engines. Nothing severe, not enough to show up as "missing" on
the dip stick. ...

Nasa Icing courses by
Jim Burns
As many of you probably know, recent midwest weather has been a steady
stream of low overcast, misty, and foggy days prohibiting most VFR flight
and making IFR flights a spin of the icing roulette wheel. I thought it may
be a good opportunity for us to review NASA's icing online...

Prop Balancing Question by
A Lieberman
Past couple of flights, found a screw that was loose on the spinner and
actually lost one in flight. A&P replaced them, and said during preflight,
check them. If they work their way loose again, need to get the prop
balanced.
Logs show no maintenance on the prop, so I am sure it's well overdue...

Removing original equipment by
Robert M. Gary
Is there any reason I can't remove my factory OAT and throw it out? I
have a mechanical OAT gauge but would rather just use my EDM OAT gauge.
The JPI says their gauge is only certified as "supplemental" but does
the FAA even care if I have an OAT at all?
I've been replacing the original OAT gauge...

bad cylinder by
blanche cohen
Looks like cylinder #1 on an O-360 is dying. Shop says I could get
more time out of it -- good compressions, no metal, but the bottom
plug is covered in oil. Since it has 2500 hours on it, I figured that
it's time.
So -- the big questions
1) Overhaul or buy a new one?
2) If buying a new one,...
